Relay for Life with CVS
Right after Mom’s funeral, Miquel announced to us all that CVS would be honoring Mom with their contribution to Relay for Life. I was impressed and honored that they would do that. Thank you CVS for this opportunity.

Perth Royal Show: For the Dogs
The first time I was ever in Australia, Laura and I missed the opportunity to go to the Perth Royal Show by one day. It was a shame, as John had talked about it to me well before we were married, and it always sounded like a fun event. Now...
Slideshow Scenes of our Day in New York City
The day arrived Chris and I took the girls to New York City. It was HOT and the buses weren’t cooperative. The Megabus at least kept us informed of the changes, but Chris and I decided that we will never take the Green tour bus ever again! See the slide...
Bridal Party
Dina called me some time back, “I know you can’t have the traditional bridal shower, but when you go to Australia, you’re going to need things, and we can buy you pretty lingerie, make up, a wedding dress….What do you think Barb?” I nearly cried I was so touched at...
With Friends at Lunch
Dina has been trying to get us three together for awhile now. Today, we finally were all able to take or MAKE the time to get together for lunch. Dina suggested Anne Arundel Seafood, and it turned out to be the perfect place for me. I love steamed Snow...
The Reception
I had a ball at the reception getting to talk and be with friends and family and capturing some candid and posed shots of everyone. (Click on photo for larger image) Rubà was a bit of a show stealer. Mom joins the family table. Mom with Uncle Arthur Jim,...
Cheesecake and Good Friends
During my birthday Chris suggested for us to go out to eat as a way of celebrating the occasion. Sounded good to me. Jimmy jumped on board with the idea too. Chris’s idea was to go to the Cheesecake Factory, and since I had never been, sounded perfect to me....
A Party for Cameron at Chuck E Cheeses
We, along with Silas, were invited to Cameron’s 4th birthday celebration at Chuck E Cheeses. When I told John what we were doing, he said that was an awful name to give a place to eat for children. To an Australian, the name Chuck E Cheeses sounds awfully strange. So,...
Our Fourth
Our July 4th started with a sit-down family lunch of Tortilla de Patatas. With everyone’s tummy happy, we decided to get some tennis in before heading out to the harbor. Already happy to have spent most of the day with my two children, I showered and looked forward to meeting...
Britney and Chris
I was honored to have one of my best friend’s daughter ask me to do her engagement photos. I suggested Kinder Park for the backdrop. See some more photos HERE
A Day Trip to New York City
I don’t get asked out very often, so when Chris called asking if I wanted to spend the day in New York, I said, “Yes!” I knew Laura wanted to go back after a taste of New York last October and Miquel hadn’t gone with us that time. So we...
Shenandoah Valley
Jim and Chris invited John and I to the Shenandoah Valley Long Branch Hot Air Balloon & Wine Festival . They also held a car show. So after being in a few cities, off to the mountains we went. On the way there, we made a stop around Harpers Ferry,...
Washington D.C.
John and I went with Laura, Heather, Tom, Chris and Baby Cameron to Washington D.C. First leg of the journey was to hop on the metro, which seemed to excite Cameron. First stop was the Smithsonian Museum of Natural History… The museum’s collections total over 125 million specimens of plants,...
Mr Dolphin is here!
After nine years talking over the internet, John (or Mr Dolphin as my kids call him) is finally in the US for a first visit face to face. After he traveled a grueling 20+ hours, we (Chris, Laura, and Heather) took him to New York City! Maybe not the best...
