Photos of Carmen – NY Grandpa
Today’s photo was submitted by NY Grandpa, who just “happens” to show up when we really need him.

Today’s photo was submitted by NY Grandpa, who just “happens” to show up when we really need him.

Today’s photos were submitted by my younger brother (Uncle Steve), his wife (Aunt Sarah) and their son Nathan. Quite an impressive assortment!




For whom or what do you swing?
Cristie is one of Lana’s closest friends. She is always willing to drop everything and run over to help. While that’s impressive by itself, it’s even more impressive that she does it with her three kids along too. She is a true servant and has a heart of gold!
Cristie was “on call” for Hope’s birth. She carried her phone around for weeks, expecting a phone call to come over because Hope was on her way. Thankfully, Lana’s water broke at 7:00pm and not 3:00 in the morning! As soon as Lana called, Cristie drove over in the snow and spent the night with Lauren and Carmen.
Thanks Cristie for everything.

My father-in-law has a vivid imagination!

Poor Carmen Cooper.
I find it a bit humorous that everyone’s name changes when kids show up on the scene. My sister, Trish, has been known as Aunt Trish since our nephew Dakota was born almost ten years ago. Now, I find myself occasionally referring to her as “Aunt Trish” when speaking about her to Lana, even when none of the kids are around!
Trish is one of the most compassionate and caring people I know. She is also extremely artistic, always involved in some sort of art and craft project. Here are a few artistic creations she submitted to celebrate Carmen:




So, how would you arrange the letters in the last photo to include HOPE? Don’t take the easy way out!
