Modesto

While growing up, when someone would ask me,
"So, have you lived in this town all of your life?" 
I would say, "No, I use to live in Modesto." 

I was only 3 months old at the time and we lived there for one summer.
But I still clung to that fact. I didn't want anyone thinking I had not been anywhere.

So this week when Dennis took my Dad to his Dr appt in, of all places... Modesto,
they went looking for that house on Floto Way.....and found it!


Seems like it should look older than that. 
But it's kind of cute.

We had the bottom apartment with the porch.
All these years later, and now I know what it looks like.

Just my Mom, Dad, my 2 year old brother, and baby me.
We were such a small little family back then.

Who would have thought 94 people would later join our family?
