MISS HEMET 1965

This is “Miss Hemet 1965”. Do you see any resemblance? You guessed it, Miss Hemet is also my mother. I love this picture of her. It’s always so hard to imagine your parents as teenagers. My mother was only 16 in this picture. For those of you that are saying, Hemet? Where in the heck is that?! Hemet is a small town in Southern California. Hemet is where I was born as well as my mother.

Any resemblance here? This is my father’s high school senior picture at about 17 years of age. He grew up in Anaheim California. He met my mom after getting set up on a blind date by a friend. He fell for her pretty quick, he proposed two weeks later. They where married a month after that.

31 years later and still very much in love, here they are!
