Ellen & Tom are Wed

We knew they would do it . . .

. . . and then they did it!
Another wonderful couple found each other . . . and invited their friends to celebrate.

Ellen & Tom

It's only rehearsal - and two of Ellen's bridesmaids are already crying.
Tom's holding on pretty tight . . .
. . . and can you imagine how happy they'll be tomorrow?

Well, here's Ellen with her brothers, Ryan and Andrew. Hey . . . wait a minute . . . did we just see Ryan earlier today and Andrew here?

Patricia & Ryan

Ryan's a Marine captain and understandably stern.
But Patricia has a way of breaking through that tough exterior.
See what we mean? What a great wedding this will be!

Meghan & Ben

A little rain didn't stop Meghan and Ben from stopping by.
And Evie was an added bonus!
Evie's lovin' it. And so are we.

Sold!

Tim sold his motorcycle today. Sob. But Dan looked eager to take over the care and feeding of it.
A serious rider who believes in proper riding gear.
And he looks at home on the bike already. We hope you enjoy it as much as we did Dan!

Huntington Beach

Kai means "ocean" in Hawaiian so we met our adopted grandkids at the beach.

Lily wasn't sure what to make of the whole thing at first.
But after a while all three relaxed - Lily, Kai and Owen.

But no one likes everything.

Katie

We don't usually post pics taken by others but we couldn't resist sharing this image of our grand daughter taken by our son, Jason.

Turning 50

That's right! Kathy just turned 50 . . . thousand miles on the '94 Miata that she bought new 17 years ago.

Old/Young Friends

Ever notice how some kids just keep getting cuter? That's certainly true for Tyler and Ashley.

Emerald Jewel

There are many jewels in Cleveland's "Emerald Necklace" and the Emerald Necklace Inn is our newest fav. If you're familiar with tea rooms, this is a great one. If you don't know about tea rooms - start your education here because they don't get any better.

Did we mention that they sell tea as well as serving it?
When you stop, say hello to Gloria and ask about "washboard weddings".

Friends

Happily introducing three wonderful women who share a common profession. Meet Brenda,
MaryAnn,
and Sylvia.

Cheyenne

Cheyenne will be spending the summer in San Diego but we took her to our local beach so we could capture her winning smile to enjoy while she's gone.
