Carney Family Newsletter for October

 

Happy October everyone. I really miss the Halloween days when I would get photos of all the grandkids dressed in their costumes....such fun.

Just a shout out to Mike, Tim, Amy and John for being so generous and buying me a new HP desktop computer. John set it up for me and it is amazingly fast compared to my 10 year old HP. Just learning to navigate it and I'm so happy that my programs are working properly.

Happy Birthday Allison

Sending many birthday wishes to you Allison! I heard that you had a pretty nice day....golfing, bowling and then dinner.......sounds great!

This photo is from Allison's 6th birthday party.

Twin is Recovering

Twin is on the road to recovery after being hit by a car while she was out running. Her tail bone is broken and that's causing pain still. She had many bruises and contusions but we are thankful because it could have been much worse. She is back to work as tolerated.

Fishing

Renovations

Mike and Twin have been busy redecorating. All of the downstairs got painted including kitchen cupboards. This color is grey by the way....looks beige in the pic. The floor were cleaned and buffed. Everything looks so nice.

Tim will soon be starting a major bathroom remodel. It will look so nice when it's done.

Visitors

Recently Amy and John were here to visit for a whole week. They worked their butts off inside and out. I am so thankful and grateful for their help. In his spare time John set up my new computer....works like a charm. They moved all my bedroom furniture including the armoire, worked outside cutting back the jungle out there and did so many other jobs for me. 

Here we are at Logans'. We also ate at Ford Garage. They went shopping at IKEA, visited Tim, visited their stepmother outside her window at the rehab center. On the go.....

This is Halloween at Greenfield Village....John and the witch

Downtown Detroit....Amy getting around on a scooter

They also visited Eminem's spaghetti restaurant which is just a take out window. Spaghetti was Ok 

Upstairs was a shop...of course tee shirts were bought

From the Archives

While Amy was here, we got out an old album and had a great time looking over all the memories (for me anyway) We found this picture of my Dad . Tim looks just like him. There I am in my high school years and Jim next to me....Aunt Pauline across the table.

Love this photo of my Uncle Gig's wedding (first wedding). I love seeing my whole family together. My Uncles Danny and Buzzie and my Aunt Pauline weren't married yet. Love seeing a picture of my Aunt Catherine (married to my Uncle Nick). There are also three 2nd cousins and my Uncle Nick Moga. 

Until next month........................................................................................................................
