Birthdays and More

Happy Birthday, Sam! Recently I commented on Andy's nickname and so I can't resist mentioning Sam's. Casperin (Casper the ghost) and Elmer Fudd. Guess why - Sam was so white and had a pretty large head with no hair at first. Three grandsons were born within one month. Grandma Centellas was kept pretty busy helping. Sam, sept 3, cousin David, sept 4 and cousin Oscar sept 26. Three boys in one month. In case you didn't know, the Centellas Family is pretty male dominated. I want to wish the best for Sam and in my daily prayers I remember him as well as each of my children. May God grant you a year of challanges and opportunities to grow spiritually. May you become the man God wants you to be.
The Centellas family has grown and the family is looking forward to some celebrations here. On September 24 Marcia will celebrate her Quinceara (15th birthday), a very special event here for a young lady. Ruben and Graciela are planning a big party. Then on October 28 David and Veronica will be married. They have waited a long time to be able to get married. DAvid now has a good job and Veronica is finsihing up her degree and so the time is right to get that wedding gown ready . We had them over for dinner tonight and talked a bit about the upcoming wedding and the different traditions.
