HAPPY 70th Mom & Dad (we'll stop saying it now since your next birthday you'll turn 72 and we don't want to confuse you!!) Thank you for Hilton Head! We had a great time!!!!!!!
This is my parents' legacy (sans the eldest JOEY). What do you think they are thinking when they look at this bunch in the sand? What are their hopes for this generation. (a good hair day and a nap maybe?) Do they see themselves in their eyes, their laugh or their interests? Do they realize this is a composite of all thier genes! Here they are...add Joey to that mix and you have yourselves the next generation in a snapshot!
Need I say more? Uncle Chad at his finest!
Jann and Den....the "Seniors" of the group!! No No...well they have been married 20 years! That counts for somethin'!
(Dana and Elise....currently up to their eyeballs in Dana's disertation! Did I even spell that right? Ugh....he's writing 900 pages and I can't spell that word!)
(The Carlsons....young & in love! or Achey, tired with three kids)
Almost all of us made it to Hilton Head to celebebrate my mom and dad's 70th. Don't be alarmed...you didn't miss it. It happened a year and a half ago but we just now made it together to celebrate. We missed Jill & Joey more than they could know!!!! We had fun, we played, we didn't get enough meaty talk, sleep or together as is always the case. But we followed through on a family trip and were reminded that warts and all...we're family and we love each other.

Longing for a "roll in the snow"!
You may actually not be wondering....I don't think I have faithful "blog fans" like my brother D, but we have been UNDER CONTRUCTION!!!! Yes....our entire house from the inside out...new paint, new carpet, packed up boxes......and Lord Willin', a new address in May. We are moving (really just...up the street) but in the meanwhile we are putting our little piece of Real Estate on the market.
It has been a long list of Twilight Zone experiences....
Carpet measures being taken, retaken, lost, miscalculated, paint smells for 4 days, kids w/ asthma attacks from paint smells, wrong color carpet, not enough carpet, where's the "rest of our carpet?", throwing aways, no phones, and then to top it off our Life Insurance man called today to say my urine tested positive for Nicotine!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! A stiff drink maybe but I promise, not a lick a cigarette !!!! Seriously.....am I being set up for a reality show cause I'm feeling a bit goofy now. If you haven't read my brother's most recent blog www.lindaman.blogspot.com about my precious nephew's nightmare's of salmon attack? It's a must read! That pretty much sums up my week!
