Kimberly and Larry

Thank you to all who helped fund her camp trip. She is so excited.

Summer Projects

Shadow Box is hung!!!

Cole, Austin, Samantha, and Breann

ZoomAir

The kids really enjoyed this. It was very hot and when the sisters go to do it, I am bringing my camel back! Must have water with me at all times.

Happy Birthday, Kathi!!!

Wish I could help you celebrate.

Love you.

Murals in the subway station. Not all of them have designs, but they are very pretty and interesting to be at a station that does decorate.

New York Subway Designs

These are some of the designs in the New York subway tunnels.

Rain and the road

I hope this video comes out. Tommy was not exaggerating when he said the road was not visible. It isn't visible now, either.

Here's a picture of Larry

Sorry, Larry, it's the only one I could find.

Happy birthday!!!

Happy Birthday, Larry

I don't have a picture with me, but I wanted everyone to know that it is Larry's birthday. He was given a wonderful birthday present. The honor of going to France to take part in a ceremony at Normandy. Who could ask for anything more on their birthday? We are proud of you, Larry.

Happy Birthday, Leesha

I don't know how my children have gotten so much older than me!

Leesha was born on 31 May or 1 June. We were given the choice because it was at midnight. It did help that she was born at home on Cadiz Street, in San Diego. She has been a joy to have around and I miss her, but will see her on the Disney Cruise.

Have a great day, Leesha. I love you.

Busch Gardens Williamsburg, VA

Before I left for Kuwait in 2007, we went to Busch Gardens. It was the week before Halloween. These were some of the weird people we saw.

Dennis, Samantha, Kimberly

Cole, Breann, Tommy

This is what I received from Johnathan. It was a big surprise since he is out on the water somewhere. Thank you, Johnathan. I love you and can't wait to see you.

This is to all mother's, aunt's, and grandmother's out there. Have a wonderful day.

Family Fun

Did the "Any Way You Can 5K" today. Dennis and the kids rode their bikes, which is why no pictures of them, and I ran. 3.12 miles in 36:50. The clock doesn't lie. The man who ran/walked with me is George. A lifetime member of Weight Watchers.

We were given coupons for Chick-fil-A and they enjoyed it. I came home and made a wonderful egg sandwich.

The happy family arrived at home and Tommy took a picture of all of us.

What a wonderful morning! I can't wait for the next one.

Digging the hole for the junk!

Not to long ago, we rented this machine to bury ashes and various junk. It seemed like almost everyone had to have a go at it. I know Johnathan did it, too, but I couldn't find the picture of him. It was the one I posted on his birthday. Tommy.

Kimberly

Tom

No introduction needed for the man above!!!

Dennis

Tennis Banquet 2009

My handsome son! We had a very good meal at the banquet. Not really sure what they were looking at. Maybe the coach, trying to get him to hurry up. Both boys and girls coaches were long winded, but very nice.

What would a picture of Tommy be without bunny ears?

Did get him to be serious and take a nice picture.
