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

Remembering Grandpa Joe whose birthday was on the 20th.

Also a big happy happy to Mary Ann!!

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.

Carney Family Newsletter for August 2020

 Open???

Well, it's been a busy news month and there is a lot to report. First, everyone is well except Emma who still is suffering from a cough (negative for Covid). I think that everyone is making the most of summer considering the circumstances. School is another thing....will we open or won't we open, if we do open how long will we stay open? Things that we could rely on no longer are a sure thing. Lots of news so let's get on with it.




Happy Birthday to Me!

 Thank you Tim and Sarah for lunch at the country club! And thank you Liam for joining us. Also thank you for all the gifts and birthday wishes. A special shout out to Mike for his gift of the Donald Trump toilet bowl brush....I will really enjoy using it!




Congratulations Mikey
    And a cause for celebration! and they actually had a graduation ceremony! I got to watch it live on the school's website.  Mikey looks proud of himself.









Home on Leave
Sean was home to celebrate his girlfriend's graduation and his brother's graduation.




The Prom that Wasn't
At Athens the official prom was cancelled so some of the parents decided to have a prom for the kids. Right before the event some of the kids tested positive for Covid and it was cancelled.....too bad. Some very nice photos though.
Liam and girlfriend Sara







What a nice picture!
