Aunt Colleen's Laugh

Image
By
I think the thing I remember most strongly about Aunt Colleen was her laugh. She had a great sense of humour and laughed a lot. If the joke was a little but "off colour" (spelled correctly for you American cousins), she couldn't help but still laugh with a look on her face that said "I might be laughing but that doesn't mean I approve."

I have many fond memories of Aunt Colleen as well. Not only was she one of my dear aunts but also my Godmother and mom of one of my best friends. She always seemed delighted to see or hear from me(at least that was my perception!) We played many hands of rummy and she fed me many times. Whenever I hear "honey child" or "that's a bozzo no-no"(ok, no one else actually says that) I think of her and smile.

I know Kathy will bust a gut on this.
Did anyone ever hear my mother swear? Yes the sh-t word had passed her saintly lips on at least two occassions that I remember swooning from.The best part was watching her face afterwards, first shock,horror then impish grin, everytime.

Kevin makes a good point, however Chace was there - make no mistake about it - this kid gets around. We had to pick him up at the airport on Friday. He flew first class with his stroller, luggage and elmo diapers. He took quite a shine to Mark! Just a few pictures from the party this past Saturday...

Some of Paul Bochsler's pictures

I took a million silly pictures, thank goodness some of y'all were taking the same shot and are better photographers, but here are a few from my camera's perspective. Gosh, I'm trying to upload a zillion of them and it only takes four at a time. Bear with me. Note the 'two Jacks', 'Peter, Paul & Mary', and the oldest and youngest of the cousins. Paul
