Cousins at DiMille's March 3, 2013

I've emailed and exchanged Christmas Cards with Libby Nyblade for years. She has twin girls who were preemies and are now 24 and visually impaired. Or as the twins say, visually inconvenienced. Facebook as brought us closer and the girls use electronics like all teens. Alicia is in college and couldn't join us. Heather has recently returned home from San Francisco learning how to live independently and is job hunting. We were also joined by Libby's sister Kathy Jo which was my pleasure to meet for the first time. You have already met their parents Bill and Cynthia Nyblade in Phoenix.

Heather, Kathy Jo, Libby, Carolyn
p.s. they got their beautiful eyes from their Mom.
Now we get techie:
Kathy Jo and Libby are 2nd cousins once removed.
Heather and Alicia are 2nd cousins twice removed.
All "twice removed" means is 2 generations away.
Makes sense if I'm 70 and Heather is 24!

We met at Di Mille's Sunday Brunch, a sampling of
fantastic Italian breakfast and lunch.
We sat outside under the red umbrellas on the right.

It's not a blue
vase but an
attractive shape
and a real flower.

Simply Delicious!

Grocery shopping
and found a jar
of sliced cactus!
Don't think this is on
my menu', thank you. LOL
