Aug.26....two reasons to be thankful today...Robert and I have been married 36 years ( yeah, okay, I was 12 when we married hahahaa) and Jon is 26 today...he graced the world 10 years to the day after we married...pretty cool! We are truly thankful for all our kiddos and blessings.

Well, we sent Adam and Abi off on their adventure to Oregon this summer.....missing them badly of course, but so proud for them, Ben got a promotion and moved to a new apt., and we just sent Elizabeth and Jon back to Pitt, after a great visit and Kylie and Bobby's wedding celebrations, to begin their second year there......come on third year, hurry up! ha I am currently in real estate with ERA after getting my liscense in late June! Gotta keep busy! God's blessings to all...

Wedding weekend

Loved having E and J here for Laura's wedding. The wedding was fabulous. Carley and Cole are married now as well! Congrats to both! Kylie and Bobby sat with us at Carley's wedding..guess they are next..well after Molly P. Steve Couvillion gets married soon too and Josh Abraham....whew! Adam and Ben celebrated their 26th big birthday here tonight. The local families and a few neighbors were here...good party! Abi and Adam head for Oregon and a new job in June....unbelievable, but wonderful for them. We had 10 or 11 graduates recognized at church this am...can't believe they are almost out of high school. Time REALLY does fly. More later.....

Gee, long time no blog! I was replying to Elizabeth about all the snow they are having.....brrrrr. It was almost 60 here today.
Very nice too! Thank goodness E. and J. will be here for a weekend in April for Laura's wedding! Come on April!

Cooler weather! Barkleigh, Gabby and I are happy about the cooler weather...more good walk time! Shea and Elizabeth and Jon are cruising Pittsburgh and studying of course ( well E. and J. are) Shea has a break! Happy Fall to all!

Fall thoughts...

it is finally hinting that fall may be here soon as the weather is cooling down some. WHEW 100 and 105 degrees doesn't agree with the walks that Barkleigh and Gabby and I take. Football weather at last...State is revived I do believe! We will watch from the sky box this week. Maybe I should just sit on the couch up there and not watch..we won last week and I didn't watch! The Shane and Shane concert was good last night..I enjoyed Bebo and Monk and Negle SP? too though! Got pics with Shane and Shane..wooooo! It was very inspirational. Those guys do a wonderful thing combining their quality singing talents with their testimony for Christ and His work. Very admirable indeed. Shea will be heading for the 'burg' to see Jon and Elizabeth for fall break! Lucky dawg! I am happy he can make it! Go DAWGS!

hey hey!

Time marches on! E and J and back in the burg and settled into class and work! They had a beautiful trip to the mtns of WV last weekend. Ben Adam and Abi are very busy as well. That's a good thing I suppose! All the doggies are well and Barkleigh thinks she is Gabby's momma..oh well!
