Celebrating 2018

Carney Family Newsletter for November

Good things are happening.....

Well, the last day of the month and the newsletter is finally out. Had a reason for putting it off this long.....Sean's graduation from boot camp! See more below. We have had an early winter here in Michigan with snow almost everyday. Leaves are still on the old Oak and snow is on the ground. Kansas got hit as well last Sunday. This is global warming screwing with the weather. Lots of news this month so read on......

Happy Birthday Amy

 Wishing the best for Amy who celebrated her birthday with her whole family.

Ice cream cake!

Congratulations Sean !

 Today, Sean graduated from boot camp.......I'm so proud of him. I think that it was pretty hard but he did it! Mike, Twin and Mikey are out in California for the ceremony. Third generation Marine in the Carney family, Grandpa Joe, Mike and then Sean......plus Mom as well. What was the first thing that Sean wanted when they let him out....a Mountain Dew.

 I dare you to pick Sean out of this group.

Carney Family Newsletter for October

Happy Fall Y'all

As each day passes, we are getting closer to winter and so far Autumn has been a big disappointment to me.....cool and rainy and just a bit depressing. But you know me, I try not to be negative...ha!

Keep close in your thoughts please, Sean who is still trying to get through boot camp and my Aunt Pauline who is very sick. They need our support.

I have lots of photos this month so be prepared. 

Recently spent the day in Frankenmuth with my friends. Enjoyed lunch at Zenders and I am pleased to say that I was not  tempted to buy any Christmas decorations.   See more on my blog:

TB

Isn't this picture great? My Dad had a friend that was a photographer and he snapped this at our house. My Mom told me she alway regretted this picture because her hair was in bobby pins.
