The End of the Road

COW  POOP (my favorite clip art for the Cow Poop section.)




I've been thinking about this for a while and feel that now is the time to bid "Cindy's Green Acres" farewell.
I cannot remember when I started the family web site---at least five or six years ago.  I've had lots of fun posting picture and adding humorous comments.
The reality is that with FACEBOOK (seven of nine sibs are on it or a spouse is on it) I am duplicating many photos that have already been posted for family to see and Facebook updates are posted daily by many.  It's just not worth the time it takes for that reason.
I feel sort of sad to end this fun adventure.
I will, however, revamp my private blog on which I muse about mundane life around our home, the blessing and struggles of trying to lead a Christian life, and snippets of anything I find interesting, along with some pictures.  I have neglected that site for several months.  Let's try not to lose touch with one another!

  God Bless!  Cindy
 
PS:  I'm ending with  this nice picture of Sister Scholastica vacationing with Tommy & Judy this week.  She looks great!

Pet News

COW  DOG & CAT POOP
For Animal Lovers Only!
 
 

Forget the store-bought toys.  "Roadie" thinks these are the best.
 
 
Do what comes naturally!

I love this picture Renee sent of her dog and cat.  "Artie" (dog) gives up and sleeps on the floor because "Emmitt" beat him to his own bed for a nap!

BRONX ZOO
 
 


 
Dianne, Jeff and some friend visited the Bronx Zoo last summer.

GNOMEY Enjoys pale ale. (brewed by Pi Man)
Oosp---my mistake.  "Gnomey" is not a real pet.  He is a personality.

"Tinkerbell," on the other hand, is one cute critter!

Jimmy greets "Bruiser."

This catfish doesn't make the cut, either; but it shows the great time Andrew, Allison and kids had
when they visited Timmy & Kerry in Louisiana in August.
 
 
 
Ditto Carol in Bennington, VT, in early October.
 
That's it for now!

Cow Poop

Happy Birthday Patty!



The Big 7-0!!


 
Renee hosted the luncheon.  Patty's children, some grandchildren, sisters and friends attended.


 I hope I get these names right:  Patty, Bethany, Gary Jr., Aaron and (darn---Roy's daughter and I forgot her name!).


Nancy and I wore our JETS/Tebow shirts.
We told Renee not to worry about entertainment for the luncheon---that we would provide it.

 The old "Jets Cheerleaders:"  Give me a P-A-T-T-Y! Goooooooooooo  PATTY!
We ended our cheer with a split jump and then went down to the
"Tebow-ing" pose, saying "Happy Birthday!"



Our idea of "entertainment" proved more than Renee could take.  She took solace in an ice-cold brewski.

All our best to you Patty.  We love you!
