Carney Family Newsletter for April

 Count Your Blessings




Here in Michigan the rule of thumb is do not plant your annual flowers until after Mother's day no matter what Lowes is selling. Now I know why....frost warning for Thursday night. It's not spring yet. 

Looking forward to Saturday when Tim and Kim will come to my house for an early Mother's day. They are buying some shrubs for me (thanks Kim)  and planting them too. I just had sod put in my backyard so my yard will be looking really nice. Allison and Jacob will plant my annuals, set up my back porch and I'll be having a great summer. Thank you to everyone for helping this old lady.



Happy birthday Jim

Sorry I missed sending you a card this year but we are all sending you birthday wishes!






Tim and Kim






Loved Having You 

Really enjoyed John's visit. Thank you John for your company and for your help. Come again any time








Kansas City Hearts
In the past Mike and Twin went on the heart search all over the Kansas City area. This year they decided, due to gas prices, to  see them on display. They all looked so beautiful.

Carney Family Newsletter for March


 Spring totally missed us so far.......




Hello everyone! When I see Mike sitting on his deck under a big sun umbrella, I have to ask myself why can't we have Spring too? One of those questions that can't be answered. 

I'm looking forward to getting my backyard back in shape. I've hired a company to cleanup the burial mound and re-sod the yard. I've asked Tim to buy some bushes for me to plant in the back by the fence. Can't wait to sit on my back porch and admire my estate....lol

Company coming in a few weeks!

Not much news this month. If there is, no one is letting me know. So on with the news that we do have.



Happy Birthday Takeshi

Hope that you had a good one Takeshi! Best wishes from all of us.






Young Love!








First Spring Paddle
Jim in his new canoe .....Beaver Creek State Park in east Liverpool Ohio.








Irish?
I always thought that Takeshi and myself were the only ones not Irish!





Oni and his Mom and Dad





Kim and Tim
At a West Point Alumni do.......they look great. I think it's fun to get dressed up once in a while






WAR
What is it good for? Absolutely nothing!
War I despise
'Cause it means destruction of innocent lives.
War means tears to thousands of mother's eyes
When their sons go off to fight.







I am in total agreement with Phil's wife. He is a liar and a fraud.
By the way I saw the biggest, fattest groundhog in my  backyard last week. No relation to Phil I hope.

Carney Family Newsletter for February

 


Praying for all our military and  Americans stuck in the Middle East with no way to get out. Who thought that it was a good idea to put us in this position with no thought to all the Americans put in harms was?  


Why is this month's newsletter so late?

1. I lost track of time

2. I was unwell

3. It is frigid in my computer room

4. I was too busy going to doctor appointments

5. I couldn't get my shit together 

6. I'm an old lady




Happy Birthday John

A very Happy 30th birthday! 






Happy Birthday Twin


Happy Birthday Twins






Chicago
Liam made a weekend trip to visit Emma








Lovey Dovey
