Hello all..........it's a chilly 68 degrees in the mountains this morning! We hope everyone is well and enjoying the summer. I couldn't resist sending along this picture of mama Lisa fishing for dinner in the everglades where her dad has a place.

What a cutie.

Speaking of cutie......Katie, your little girl is adorable. The pink furry bikini top really brings out those cheeks!

PEACE!

As promised, here are some recent pics of Aileen---lookin beach ready and getting her face licked off by Murph! Who does she look like? Everyone seemed to think she was a Maloney until those cheeks came along. Then everyone started commenting on how much she looks like me---go figure, huh?

Look at me....I'm blogging

I never thought I would blog. Isn't the internet awesome. I hear they have it on computers now (Simpson's reference). Donna and I don't have any baby pics to post but we'll see if we can find some dog pics. we just got back from vacation in Folley Beach, SC. Other than that, just working too much. As Katie mentioned, we're taking a Fredneck McHugh Clan vaca. in Sept. If possible, please stop by to take part in the dysfunction. Should be interesting.

Hey Pat, if you're reading this......where's my check?!

Greetings from NAPTOWN

Hi All---Love the Blog idea! Mom sent me the link. Of course, she has no idea how to use it or what it means but she' s into it! Things are great in Annapolis. I'm in my quiet time at work and John's crazy busy. We can't wait for vacation in September! The whole Barb/Ger clan is going to Rehoboth September 15-22! Even Pat is leaving Middletown Valley to come enjoy some family time. It should be a riot. If anyone else will be down there, let us know.

I'll post some up-to-date pics of Aileen soon---believe it or not I don't have any on my office computer. She's 5 months old already and she's talking, smiling, standing and just generally the center of our universe---She's so awesome in every way and we feel so lucky to have her.

Hope all is well with everyone. More soon......

Katie

Greetings all, from the clan McMazz

it's a beautiful sunday morning in the mountains.......momma Lisa is doing great with her pregnancy! it's so sweet and exciting, we're just loving these days and looking forward to holding our baby girl. this summer is outta the question for a beach visit, but we're going to key in for next year-----it'll be wonderful to be with everyone again.

as some of you know, we got the house i've been building under contract! it's a great feeling to sell a unique house in a slowing market. green building is really huge here and lots of people are moving to the area to take part in the movement.

future plans for us include Lisa going back to finish school next sememster which is going to force me to revamp my day to day business dealings. i'm looking forward to being a full time daddy a few days a week! next spring, i'll also be busy building our addition-----we're planning to add two bedrooms and a big playroom off the north side.

of course, any time ya'll are in the area, feel free to stop in! also, we'd love to get the asheville-nashville connection up and running sometime with some visits.

hope all's well with everyone......peace!

bobby and lisa (bella, woodstock, zappa, and gestating little baby girl)
