Here are some pictures of Dean Martin with his family that come courtesy of my friend The One & Only International Bond Girl. Dino had four children (Craig, Claudia, Barbara & Deana) with his first wife Elizabeth Anne. He had three children (Dean Paul, Ricci & Gina) with his second wife Jeanne. He would later go on to adopt the daughter (Sasha) of his third wife Catherine. I thought these were some really cool pictures. It's great to see Dino as a family man. Family is very important. I do wonder what kind of dad he was. I've read his son Ricci's book, but never his daughter Deana's. I know they each paint a different picture of what life was like in the Martin home.

I don't know all that much about Dino's life, and had no idea he had so many children! He is a cool-lookin' dad.
Hey there. I don't know as much about his life as I would like. I'm trying to learn more. I've read two of the books about him. He did seem like he would be a cool dad.
The pictures are great!

Deana Martin was on THE O'REILLY FACTOR last week talking about her book on family life in the Martin household. She said that her dad never had more than one drink a day.
Hey Carol. Thanks for the comments. Nice hearing from you. Yeah, I saw Deana up there. It was great seeing her talk about her dad.
I HAVE ABOUT HALF OF THESE PALLIE, BUT THE ONES I HAVEN'T SEEN ARE SUCH A SWEET DINO SURPRISE. LOVE 'EM!
Hey pallie Terri. I'm glad you could see all of these. I thought they were awesome. It's cool to see Dino with his family.
Dino was a great father after he married Jeannie, with his first wife things were a little more difficult. He loved his family and was so devastated when his son died.
Hey Mel. Thanks for the comments. You are so right. I do think it would have been cool to grow up in his family.
Really these are cool pics. How sweet Dino's children !!!
