All My Children..2 legged and 4 legged!!

Hey Jules!!! So very happy to hear from you. I thought I had the wrong e-mail address but mom said it was right. Just for starters I want to let the Sweeney girl's offsprings know that Ellen and Julie are our cousins. Grandma Sweeney's sister's children. We spent time together as kids.

Lou and I figured we better do a post together during coffee because Jo is totally out blogging us and we can't have that. We went to the link to your project and wow!! That is major! Tell us what part you play. Mom and I take care of the elderly in their homes and as you will see in the photo I post...I work mids and have not been home to shower. Lou works in sales and accounting. Lou and I just decided the three of us need to come to visit you in Maryland. You would probably love to boat on the Saint Lawrence river where Grandpa used to fish and be a guide.

I feel the same way about the season changing. Todd and I love to ride the motorcycle and hate to see it end. (for now) Lou has a pontoon boat and camper. Jo loves to camp so we feel your pain. We are all gearing up for the 3 girl's hockey season. I am an official groupie (aka..hockey ho) for the seaon and Jo plays!!

Lou and I were able to see your mom, dad and Mary a few weeks back. I could totally see Grandma in your mother's eyes. Where has the time gone. Lou and Jo have kids in each year of high school and my boys are in their sophmore and junior years at SUNY PLattsburgh. One wants to be a history professor and the other an art teacher. Just 90 minutes away but I still miss them.

Todd and I have three dogs and a cat. Two of the dogs are labs and the third is a mix. Lou has a chocolate. They are Todd's best friends and he walks them at the river everyday rain or shine. Todd was diagnosed 15 years ago with Psoriatic Arthritis. Very similar to Rheumatiod except his skin is involved. It has been very trying. We could talk forever about it and should. I'll write more later!!

Here we are! Coffee, knitting, blogging, and good company...what more could you ask for? And the next photo is of our sexy photographer Andy. Check out the abs man!!! By the way...chip is adorable!!
