The Big Guy

Many of you have asked how the big guy is since the move to Georgia. Well I otta tell ya Cecil seems happier than ever. He has SO much more room to roam around and he loves it. That's him in the hallway on the way to the garage. He has been sleeping in the bedroom with us and has been a very good boy about not waking us up and he stays in the master bedroom all day and has been great about not getting into anything while we are at work. We plan to fence in the backyard in the spring and then he won't have to be on a chain anymore. I bet he will absolutely love that. I asked him if he wanted to add anything to this message and he said "gurrewwooo" or something Chewbacca-like.

Happy Birthday!

Sam's birthday at our house.
(breakfast area....between kitchen and keeping rooms)

Our November trip home.

We saw some great friends... we miss you guys, we saw some family (not enough family but only so much time)
AND.....

We went to Sam and Meg's wedding reception (#2) while we were in Mass. from 11/4 - 11/7... aren't they a happy couple. For those of you we didn't get a chance to see... "we miss you very much and we are sorry" and for those of you we did see.. "it was great seeing you"

Sam and Meg's wedding week extravaganza

We had no less than 9 friends stay at our house that week... crazy times, mucho alcohol, kinda like a ski trip!

Steph, Meg and Marc at the rehersal dinner.

The wedding was great. here is a picture of me and Dee.

And a picture of Tom and Darlene.

Here is one the arrangements Beck did for the wedding.
She did an amazing job with the flowers
That's my gal. Pretty cute huh?

Helen, GA

Over the summer when Beck's mom was visiting we went to Helen, GA. It's about 30 minutes north of us in the north Georgia mountains. It's set up like a little German village (notice the orange rooftops) with lots of shops, restaurants, cobblestone roads and river running through town with tubing in the summer. We had a great day!

Three peas in a pod.

The Georgia girls. From left Darlene Hinds (close friend and wife of Tom Hinds "who's that?"... duh another close friend and they live up the street from Sam) then Meg (the new Mrs. Sam Scola) and then ...... well you know who that is silly ! !
