I was redesigning my Carol's Lens blog and magically this video link appeared. I don't know where it came from but what a treat. The link is on the very right hand side after Archives. It say Labels and under that is CFR 2005. It was so much fun to rewatch this great video that Mike put together....enjoy!

Carney Family Newsletter for November

 


Happy Thanksgiving Everyone

Thinking of you all today. Not your average holiday because of the pandemic but I hope we made the most of it. I was home alone but Tim and Sarah shared their wonderful meal with me.....thank you both so much for bringing the food to my house.
Sean came home today. So glad. Traditional Cracker Barrel meal for the Kansas Carneys. Amy and Takeshi are cooking on the tabletop grill....Korean Barbeque, Takeshi said. Tim and Sarah also took food up to her parents....everyone seems to be following the CDC guidelines. Emma stayed in Chicago...I've been thinking about her all day.
Not much news this month but it is a big birthday month so let's move along.





Happy Birthday Amy
A very happy November birthday to Amy....last year of youth...lol

Carney Family Newsletter for September 2020

 Live in the Sunshine


Happy fall everyone....my favorite time of year. We are having some beautiful weather right now and it's so nice that you almost forget all the worrisome things that are happening right now. Everyone is getting ready for autumn....putting away the porch (thanks Tim), fertilizing the grass, getting in that last game of golf......soon the leaves will be falling. 
Emma and Liam are the only ones in school right now and I'm sure they are trying to survive that petri dish of Covid germs at their colleges. Despite all the rumors our family members that work in the restaurant business have remained unaffected. I pray every day for all of you that have to be out and about. It is all I can do to stop a political rant but I'll restrain .....pray for the USA.
