New Years

Well it's December 31st, Happy New Year everyone!! Hope everyone has asafe and fun New Years eve. Yesterday was my birthday, so we went out to dinner at Dixie Crossroads, a really good seafood resturant about an hour from home. Had a really great dinner. Heres a picture of me and the kids on my birthday.

Hi everyone

Well it's October and it's starting to cool of here in Florida, thank goodness. The kids just had Homecoming week so I thought I'd post a picture of them. Have and will be very busy this week, inventory time at work..............Donna

Welcome September

Finally September is here. The kids are back to school as I wished. Now at a point in their academic careers where I can no longer help with the homework, since I have no idea what kind of math they are doing, and I don't speak french.

My parents are safely back from the swamp you all call The Sunshine State. and I am trying desperately to save for my winter oil bills.

Ryan got his drivers license this month, so if you were thinking of driving in the State of Connecticut don't.

The kids went to a wedding with their dad and Ryan got his first suit, Paige got to be bell of the ball.

What has everyone else been up to?

How Is Everyone?

I happened to check this blog and there have been no updates. I assume, like everyone else, you are busy with school/kids/PTA/life, as I am. Things are peachy (and cold!) in Michigan -- my daughter turned 10, our son is turning 4 in October, and we have a big BD planned with a petting zoo and pony rides (couldn't get the rocket ship to the Moon--maybe next year).

Here is a picture of Cooper and me and a recent BD party at Marvelous Marvin's Mechanical Museum in Farmington Hills, MI. As you can see, we have both gotten very tall. If you're ever there, you should stop by.

Good luck to everyone out there.

Ang is doing good

Hey everybody just wanted to let you know that my dad is doing well after his angoplas (not sure of spelling) any way they put in three stints. He may also need a defibulater in the next 6 months to a year. I guess the hospitals air went out sometime last night, so he's probably tired, hot and cranky today.
