New Year, Old Friends

We started the year right by running into the Guzman-Canos last week as they celebrated Susie's birthday. HAPPY BIRTHDAY! Susie is the baby-faced one to the left. Her daughter, Victoria the Beautiful, is to her right. The two men are Papa Raul on the left, and the handsome Alejandro.

Susie insists she's only 21, but I've known her for 30 years, so this birthday must make her 35.

Both kids are students at Sac State. Alejandro and my son, Jared, played soccer together when they were little fellows who only played for the snacks.
