They are twins –

Taylor and Cassidy –

Here I have them on my lap –

Showing them my computer and they are fascinated!

They were born early –

At 32 weeks, simply because Taylor was taking all the nutrition.

The doctor said it was time –

To have them out.

So, a “C” section and over one pound each, they survived!

They were Juice Plus babies –

Their mother had taken the supplement for years!

It just so happened it was on their mother’s birthday-

Today, all three celebrate the same day!

Today, they shine in this picture with their mother, Tammy.

Taylor is on the left, and Cassidy is on the right.

From 32 weeks to now-

Taylor is almost 5’9″ and Cassidy is 5’6″.

Taylor rides horses – plays the violin – sings and dances, and acts in plays.

Cassidy plays violin, cheerleading, and gymnastics.

She can also sing and dance,

And acts,

But chooses not to.

The tiny twins then sat on Papa’s lap.

And today, with their mother –

This is a THEN AND NOW moment and memory!

Sherry, Buck, Cindy, and Papa.

When we moved to Pleasant Acres Drive in Portville, N.Y. –

We became neighbors with Buck and Cindy.

This was around 1988 or so.

We had known them through Jim and Dottie –

Who were my longtime friends from Eldred, Pa.

We became fast friends and started traveling the world on vacations.

In the mid-90s-

They moved to Wilmington, N.C., for new jobs.

We stayed in touch and would go down and visit –

Then in 1999 –

Both of us transferred within Dal-Tile to NVA!

We still got together and went on vacations.

Our little group of three couples tried to get together every four months.

At each other’s houses, and Jim and Dottie had also moved to Virginia.

The years passed –

We retired and came to N.C., where we are now.

Some 38 miles from the McBrides and Jim and Dottie-

Now live in the Northern NC area.

Now, we meet up and play golf-

Have dinner and plan a trip locally in the state.

We still all get together every so often.

This is but one more memory of THEN AND NOW!

LOL- some humor for today!

Sherry and some team members from her JUICE PLUS BUSINESS!

For twenty-plus years, she has conducted her business online.

Providing a supplemental monthly income.

Allowing us to live our dream here in N.C. –

Cameron Woods Community-

Ocean Isle Beach.

She has been able to work from home and has retired from her job-

In 2012!

She works when she wants to and has her office in our new home.

Today, after 20-plus years –

A business and a way to age healthily, as we are now in our senior years.

I have not missed a day in all those years.

And now, they have come out with a liquid drink instead of capsules!

Tastes to me like Hawaiian Punch!

And today the NOW!
