Welcome!

I created this blog for a class assignment. I am hoping to be able to share with family and friends tidbits of information and photos of our beautiful grandkids as they are growing and learning new things. Some of you have already missed so many things; crawling, learning to walk, first words. I will post photos also.

I guess we will start at the beginning as some of you may not know us personally but this should give you an idea of our family. Chris and I met in 1989 when I moved to the desert. We were married March 2, 1991, what a hectic day that was. Some people thought it was a sign that we weren't supposed to be together and some even thought we wouldn't make it 5 years... and here we are 20 years later! What happened? That was the weekend of the big storm. Everything was flooded. You couldn't get in or out of Desert Hot Springs so we were afraid that most of our guests wouldn't make it to the wedding and I wouldn't make it over from Palm Springs. We had our wedding at the clubhouse where my grandparents lived and part of the roof caved in the night before, the cake was the wrong color, the flowers were a disaster. I did make it but I was late, yes to my own wedding. The wedding itself was nice, nothing big and fancy but our family and friends were there, well most of them. A friend of mine was bringing some catered trays with her and the poor thing broke down on the freeway so my grandfather left to go help her. Needless to say they both missed the ceremony. We have had some ups and downs but we are heading towards our 21st anniversary!

Kayla Renai was born June 12th 1989 at 9:50 pm. Our little angel. She was beautiful and smart, learning how to read and write her name and few other words before Kindergarten. She was on the Honor Roll all thru elementary school and won numerous awards. She was on the cheer team or flag team from 3rd grade thru 12th grade. She has become a beautiful woman. She got her first job while in high school at Starbucks and still works there today going on 5 years now. She also attends Champion Beauty School and takes care of our little princess Scarlet, we'll talk more about her later.

Michael Anthony was born July 15, 1991 at 12:14 pm. Thank God that both my children came into this world at decent hours. He is a typical boy, loved his cars and trucks when he was little and always wanted to pick on his sister. He was little more rebellious in school than Kayla and we had to push him a little more. He is now a wonderful, handsome young man. He started his first job at 16 working at Albertsons and has been working at Ralphs for the past 3 years. He is currently a single father to our handsome little man Lucian.

Tomorrow... Scarlet and Lucian!

Love to you all,

The Brocks
