Larry & Pat McDonald

I look just like my mother. And I am proud of it. This year will be 50 years married for my parents. A love affair that even today shines bright each time they look at each other. I love you Dad & Mom and am very proud to say I am your daughter.

My all time favorite movie at Christmas time. Watch it every year with whomever will watch it with me. As kids, I remember sitting with my family and watching this during the holidays. Many, many good memories of growing up in a good home, in a good neighborhood, good friends, good parents, good brother and sister. I have been blessed in my life. I thank God for all the gifts that I have been given and to a family that is priceless. Thanks Dad, Mom, Pudd and Buck for the best childhood memories. Let's hope I have made some good ones for my kids as well.

2010 Ryder Cup

Come on Phil....show them how it's done Baby!!! Go USA!!!

One of my favorite memories about my kids was watching all the Disney movies with them. To this day I can still quote sayings from most of the movies. Watching Jungle Book and Robin Hood at our little apartment on Apple Honey lane brings back so many memories. I can still see their little faces when they would say "Mom, let's watch Robin Hood." Us three would tuck in close and watch it over and over and over. When Katie was little we watched Oliver and Company..."Get off my back woman, I'm driving" still cracks me up.
So many happy memories of my little ones. They were beautiful then and they are beautiful now. I love you Stevo, Dano and Boogie. Always.

UP Carl Meets Russell

Jeff and Stephen went to the ReAL game on Saturday and had a blast. First they went to Iggy's for beer's and dinner and then on to the game. Jeff came home and said that they had the best time. I am so happy that Jeff does a one on one night with all of his kids. Let's them know how important they are to him. Love you Papa and Stevo.

Katie and her new boyfriend Ethan. They look so cute together. I think this is the longest she has kept a boyfriend. They are going on a month now. Wow... He scored a touch down at the game last week and dedicated that one to Katie. Isn't love grand at that age, 14 going on all grown up.
