2024
...full of many wonderful celebrations and two very sad goodbyes.....
Victoria turned 1!
Charlie turned 16 and got his license!
Ramie became a licensed stylist!
We said goodbye to our beloved NeeNee.
This was on her birthday, Mar 6. She passed on April 10.
We spent as much time as we could with Grammy, as her cancer returned.
We celebrated Maggie graduating from high school and spent two weeks touring our favorite parts of England, and then traveling to DC with the Texas Children's choir before she moved in with Gracie at Texas Tech!
Emily and I made a trip to Illinois with Lizzie, Winnie and Victoria to visit Grammy and Grandpa on the "Farm" and had so much fun with all the cousins!
Victoria "driving" the Cushman that her mommy used to drive!
Four generations!
I went back to Illinois in September after a true prompting from the Holy Spirit to see Mom. I believe it was also divine intervention that led her siblings to drive up from LA to see her. I arrived Sept. 6, they arrived the 7th and we had the BEST night, laughing and eating. Mom passed away less than two hours after they headed back to their hotel at 9pm.
Halloween brought some fun back in our lives, Drew's girlfriend; soon to be fiancee, Bridgette and her son Levi fit right in...although next year they will definitely be part of our "theme!"
Ramie and Josh also decided to do their own thing as Mario and Princess Peach!
Charlie decided to sprout up this year - over 6 feet now and the tallest Ogea!
Emily and Hayden took a trip to South Dakota while Uncle Drew and MawMaw split babysitting.
Josh popped the question and Ramie said yes!
Winnie turned 5!
Drew and Bridgette will be a newly married couple in 2025, with a son arriving in late June!
Joseph and Ashley gave me the best birthday present EVER when they announced that they are expecting a baby in early June!!!
Christmas this year was overflowing with joy as we had all the kids and their people with us.
2025 is going to be a JOY filled year!
