After graduating from high school, Anna decided to become a beautician, which she did successfully for several years before switching to office work.  She met her husband, Carlos, at a Basque dance in Twin Falls, and the couple was married in Shoshone in 1946.  They have raised four children who are very interested in their Basque heritage.

Today, Anna and her husband love to participate in area Basque events.  They have made one trip together to the Basque Country, and describe the many wonderful experiences they had there.  Anna has seen many changes in the Idaho Basque community since the boarding house days, but she still feels strongly attached to her Basque roots.
