Halloween Party 2008

What a great Halloween party! We celebrated at Gary & Debbie’s house again this year.

Nanny's Sisters

My cousin, Danny Casanover, 47, lost his battle with cancer. We gathered at my aunt's house, Aunt Lita, to pay our respects.

Gary & Debbie's 15th Wedding Anniversary

Debbie and Gary celebrated their 15th wedding anniversary on October 9th (which also happens to be Jeremy & Brittni's anniversary). Gary serenaded Debbie while John, Josh, and Jerrod sang backup. It was TOO CUTE! We congratulated them and celebrated over dinner at Golden Corral. Present were: Gary, Debbie, Chloe, Sandra & Robert (Debbie's mother & step-father), Mark & I, Fred & Kimberly, Katelynn, Camillia & Ray, Jerrod & Heather, Jordan & Blake, Joe Dee, Courtney, Casie, John & Cynthia, Eddie, Aicila, Josh & Kayla.

Crystal is the traditional gift for a 15th anniversary.

Huntington Jr. Cheerleaders

Courtney & Casie joined the Huntington Junior Cheerleaders for the homecoming game. Melenda, Bobby Jr., and I went to the game to see the half-time show. The girls were so excited! This was their first extra-curricular activity and we were glad to share it with them.






Tammy & Lyle were there with their son, Cody Allan. Cody was born in January; they adopted him when he was one week old. He is learning to stand and is trying to walk.

Happy Grandparents Day!

Eddie's school is encouraging grandparents to get involved by inviting them to each lunch with their grandchildren. This is from his school. Note his signature on the bottom.





Mark and I had lunch with Eddie Friday, October 10. (I think we both forgot what school lunches were like.) We had grilled cheese sandwiches, green beans, Dolphins (like the Goldfish crackers), and grapes or apples. Oh, and we can't forget the little cartons of milk. We really enjoyed ourselves and can't wait to do it again!
