A few family pics I thought would be fun to share 🙂 Middle and Top Right Pics My moms… the beautiful, Dr. Trinidad E. Garcia, a retired OB/GYN.  My mom spends her retirement days volunteering her time at The Pregnancy Center of Okeechobee where she provides free women’s wellness exams consisting of a breast exam, pelvic exam and a Pap smear.  She is my inspiration for teaching this Women’s Health Issues course – a course I first started teaching at Texas A&M when I was a grad student working on my Ph.D. almost 20 years ago!!   Far Left and Bottom Right Pics A surprise trip for the littles to Universal Studios on May 7th when I decided that a random Wednesday would be a good day for them to “play hooky” from school and before my busy Summer A and role as a UF Preview Advisor got started May 12th. I highly recommend going on a mid-week day like this if you have a flexible schedule. We did both Universal Studios and Islands of Adventure in less than 6 hours with a lunch break included.  Our longest wait for a ride was less than 10 minutes!  (Behind us, in the bottom-right pic, is the E.T. Adventure sign) DK (Daniel Karl, 8) and Lala (Tecla, teck-luh, 7) love some face paint and one of the first places we always try to stop at any theme park, carnival, festival, etc. is the face paint station as they want all their pics for the day (and this mom takes TONS of pics!) to include their painted faces.  For those of you who took the in-person version of my HSC3032 class this past Spring, you may remember DK and Lala coming in as guest speakers during our last class meeting.  If you look close enough, Lala’s love for unicorns is represented in her face paint 🙂 Bottom Middle Pic The Fam!  I like to call us, “The G-Unit” (emphasis on the “nit”).  For those of you old enough to know 50 Cent back in the day (and understand what I mean when I say “emphasis on the ‘nit'”), I hope you appreciate the “G-Unit” reference.  This pic was from Easter this year.   Quick story: my hubs, Brian, and I dated in high school and then went our separate ways in college (at UF!).  We reconnected at my 20-year high school reunion where we found ourselves both never-married and with no children.  We went on our “second first-date” after this reunion > Brian proposed 6 weeks later > 6 months after that, we got married in front of 600+ guests! (it’s a Filipino thing – crazy, but loads of fun!) > had DK 12 months after that > and then Lala, 13 months after DK!!  Thanks for taking the time to read & learn a little bit about me and my family.  It’s been so wonderful getting to learn so much about you and your families & friends through your gratitude journal entries.  Keep ’em coming!  🙂
