Carney Family Newsletter for September

 Do the Right Thing


Happy Fall


Birthday wishes and thank yous are the theme for this month's newsletter. Here's hoping that we have a wonderful autumn. This summer Lincoln Park was hit with 2 tornados one of them only two blocks from my house....pretty unusual and a lot frightening. I am feeling pretty lonely since Amy has left but I enjoyed her visit immensely! No more visitors scheduled for the near future.




Happy Birthday Guys

Wishing Mikey a very Happy birthday! Now that he has reached the great age of 25 can we start calling him Mike? Happy days!


Sending birthday wishes to Liam. We hope that you had a great day and congrats on your promotion!

Happy Birthday Jacob! We are all sending you birthday wishes.





A visit from my daughter

The obligatory photo with Big Boy! 

Had such a great time while Amy was here. We had several big projects and lots of small ones too. When I say we, I mean that Amy did all the work!  We went out for lunch and a few dinners as well. 

At Miller's Bar...note pajama people in background.



Old Friends

Mike met up with his old high school friend Matt Stein. There is nothing like a old friendship! Matt is a guitar roady  and travels the country in the summer months and was recently in Kansas city.



Go Lions

Here is Emma and Suki cheering (or hoping) for the lions!

Thankful

Thanks to my family I am able to maintain my house and property. I'm just taking this opportunity to thank everyone that helped out this year. 



April
Thank you John for coming to visit me and for the numerous hauls up and down the basement steps and for setting up my WiFi extender.


May

Allison and Jacob spent a whole week with me. Thanks guys for all the yard work, planting, porch clean up and porch set up. All your work was so appreciated!



July

Mike and Sean spent the most smokiest time with me in July. Working thru the intense wildfire smoke and excruciating high temperatures, Mike did so much yard work and maintenance. A thank you just doesn't seem enough. Thanks Sean for all that you did and for setting up my new phone.



September
Two weeks Amy spent with me and got so much done inside and out. I so appreciate everything that you did that is all too numerous to name. Yard work, cleaning, laundry, shopping, going to Sams Club with me, and helping me spend money on Temu! You are the energizing bunny!




All Year

Thanks to Tim and Kim who come to help me all year round! Whether it's trimming, weeding or anything else I need done it is all so appreciated. A special thanks for the after the storm clean up....what a mess that was.




School Days
Well school has started and I found this cute picture of little Sean getting on the school bus for his first day of school.





I'm so glamorous!
Happy Days!

Carney Family Newsletter for July


 This month has been rather eventful....boiling hot and smokey air! But thanks to some great family members, my garden is looking beautiful.

I had some company this month and expect another visitor in September. 

Well, lets stop waffling and get on with the news.




Happy Birthday Boys!

Wishing Mike and Sean happy happy birthdays!





Colorado

Allison and Jacob visited Colorado recently to attend Allison's good friend's wedding and do a little sightseeing. Above is Red Rock amphitheater.


Hanna and Allison, friends since high school. Hanna performed the wedding ceremony for Allison and Jacob when they got married. Can you tell they are both half Japanese? 



 


The Apocalypse  

Temperatures in the high 90s and Canadian wildfire smoke and Mike worked right thru it. Thanks you so much for all the hard work that you did Mike! You really went beyond the call of duty. And thank you Sean for setting up my new phone and answering all my questions. I really enjoyed visiting with you guys. Sorry that I didn't get more pictures while you were here.
 
I guess that everyone who comes to Michigan has to have a picture with this famous guy.




Chicago

Kim was in Chicago for her job and was able to catch up with Emma 




Just Some Pictures










Princess

After spending hours at my house working on my yard, Kim and Tim went on a  dinner riverboat cruise. Thank you so much for all your hard work guys! My yard is looking trim and well clipped!

So next month is my birthday month and I can't decide whether to take the month off or make the newsletter all about me.....lol
