How in the world
How in the world do I catch up from Dec. 2009? Didn't realize I was so far behind. Should have known. Facebook finds more of my time than blogging but now it's time to get back in the swing. How do I sum up the last 8 months? Exciting, lots of changes, many birthdays, many BIG birthdays, holidays, summer breaks, spring breaks and the list goes on.
Dec. found us busy with the holidays....Joe was home from school - enjoyed having him here. Chris turned 50 in Dec. Dec. 28th to be exact. Spent it with Jimmy and Suzie and Cooper and Julia and of course, us....we rang in the new year and had a visit with Sissy and Alex and Catherine. February, I turned 50. Or did I? There really wasn't a 29th this year but everyone insists that I did!! Even threw me a party (surprise) and Joe coming home was my gift from Elizabeth!!! We let Joe and a few of his friends from college have a week at the beach in one of the time shares and I went down and checked them in and headed to Charleston for the rest of the week. That was my gift for turning 50. It was nice to get away for some time and spend it with my friend Anne. Elizabeth and I and Katelyn ended up in Charleston for a few days of spring break...soccer season came to an end, school came to an end summer began. We were ready this year. Lots of cold and snow this year = much more than us southerners want!!! Joe was home for about a month and he went to Camp Grier for the summer to once again be a counselor. Elizabeth headed off to on another mission trip to West Virginia and came back to the trip of a life time - Europe for 3 weeks with me and my dad!!! Joe went to Kenya with Chris and my dad at her age and this trip was for her. More details to follow on that!!! Chris took a trip to the Rock N Roll Hall of Fame with 2 of his college buddies while we were gone - something he had always wanted to do and added in the Football Hall of Fame and a tour of the House from the movie "A Christmas Story" They had a great time and are ready to head to Memphis next summer!!! At this point in the summer, Joe is back in Chapel Hill - setting up his 1st apartment with friends he has made and Elizabeth will be starting high school in about a week. When did these kids get so old????? Joe is in his junior year at UNC and loves it!! Having a grand college experience and hopefully throwing in a bit of education along the way!!!! Pictures will follow. Trying to find a way to put all the Europe pictures on this as a slideshow - there are many, a few from the past year also. This is what the Faile's have been up to so far this year!!
