Goodbye to our Cute Car

Mini Cooper Madness

We made a hard decision to sell our little Mini Cooper and wow it sold fast.

New owners are so very pleased to own such a cute, clean little fast machine.

Served us well...we will miss it...<3

Job Well Done

Fast but very good painters....

Photos don't do the color justice...wanted to share anyway.

The walls are darker than they appear in the photos. The couch is new and goes with the flow now. -)

Master Bedroom is a sage green, the walls are darker than they appear in the photo's.

Emerick's Story

Emerick has much to say about not feeling well.

Enjoy....

Progressive Dinner

We and three neighbors had the best time this last Saturday for a delicious meal. We started in our home, then next door for salad, then two doors down for main dish and finally five doors down for dessert. We had fun chatting, eating, drinking, laughing and most importantly spending quality time with friends and neighbors.

Our home is located in a great neighborhood, safe, sound and lots of fun.

It was midnight for us all before we knew it!

January 2010

Grammy and Emerick at Anni's 27th Birthday Celebration

2010

A new year as begun with many changes already happening. All good, just different I guess. We thought Richard would be all finished working in PA however he will continue until mid January and hopefully not later. One day at a time, for now.

Samantha is here with us now and hoping to get into Johns Hopkins to get her Master's degree.

Anni and James have moved from Bulle Rock to Forest Hill, thankful it is only 15 miles away from us.

Emerick is almost 16 months old and walking, talking and as adorable as ever!

It has been a very cold winter so far, much more than last.

We enjoyed our first "White Christmas" as a family.

Happy New Year to all of our family and friends.

Babies and fun!

Emerick and Dean are 4 weeks apart in age. Dean came for our family reunion here in Maryland with his mom Sabra and PaPa Greg. We had a great visit with them. Anni Oh was able to take the boys out for a simple photo shoot and was able to capture them having fun. Took a bit for Emerick to like sharing the attention. Was sure fun having two babies in the home, oh and my brother and niece.<3

Not so sure Emerick?

Can't believe it is May!

Six Months and counting...

We have been in our new home for six months now and our grandson is seven months already. Where does the time go? Our new surroundings are beautiful and we love living on the East Coast. Missing our family and dear friends in California is an understatement for sure. Here is an updated photo of Emerick at seven months. Our daughter Samantha is graduating from Point Loma Nazarene University in San Diego on the 16th! Samantha has worked hard for this day to come. We are oh so proud of her. Looking forward to our San Diego trip to be with her for her huge accomplishment.

Miss Samantha Jane Awalt =)
