Spending Time with Grandma in New York City

Before school started, we are traveled to New York City to see Howie's mother Beverly and his sisters, Rhonda, Bess, and Sherri as well as our nieces Elizabeth, Diane, Lori, and Ellen. It has been a few years since we had brought the girls to the city, so they were both excited to see all of the buildings and people. One of their favorite pass times while we were in the city was spending time with their Grandma Beverly in her garden and across the street from her apartment at the playground. We will have to make another trip soon to see Grandma in New York City!

 Grandma Beverly and her little girlfriends!

 Youngest to oldest, Sophie, Emma-Caroline, Ellen, Lori, Diane, and Elizabeth!

Island Blissdom!

On December 31, 2010, my sister Katie was married to her childhood sweetheart Ryan Goodin in a beautiful ceremony on the beach in St. Lucia.
Although, we were not able to attend the ceremony, we felt as if we were there with instant updates online through Facebook. I am so happy for Katie and Ryan and wish them many years of wedded bliss together. Congratulations Katie and Ryan! We love you very much!
