Happy 19th Birthday Katie











Hi there Everyone,

Today is Katies 19th Birthday and she has grown up so fast into a wonderful young lady. And so much has happened recently in her life. She has started a new job at an Optometrist in Elk Grove and she and her boyfriend Russ have moved out into their own place in South Sacramento in an area they call 'The Pocket'. They have a nice little upstairs one-bedroom apartment that is a perfect starter for them. It has been a very busy weekend for our entire family.

It actually started last Thursday with taking about three pickup-truck loads down to the new apartment with the help of Russ's dad, Ralph who actually took two of the loads. We then followed up with a fourth load on Saturday delivering Grandpa Calvins TV and a few other needed furniture items. Sunday, we celebrated Katies birthday at the Sutter Creek Palace where Katie got some Fillet Minion. Her birthday cake was actually her favorite Banana Cream Pie made by Margaret Anderson at the local eatery, 'Sierra House'. Don't blame Margaret for the appearance of the pie in the picture, we had already had candles in the pie and such.

Carol and I are both so proud of Katie and what she has accomplished this year. She got her Highschool diploma, moved out on her own, ahhhh, it has been a busy one for her. We love you Katie, we are very glad we get to be part of your life!

Happy Birthday, Love Mom and Eric
