Our Summer 2004



This was actually taken in April 2004 in Northern Virginia
at Grandma and Grandpa's house.
Billy loves to ride his bike on long rides!!




"The Rig"

Jeanne pulls Andy on the trail-a-bike
and Carrie in the Avenir trailer behind Andy.

We get lots of comments about our rig... mostly, "You are
one strong lady!!"
But Andy is good at pedaling and doing his share!

The Craig kids and their Backofen/Black cousins
Billy, Andy, Steven, Jacob, Carrie and Bobby.
At the pool in Danville, VA in June 2004.


At Smith Mountain Lake.
Billy loves tubing!!



Billy likes to make his tube bounce.
Andy likes to try to splash water on his brother.





Carrie is not sure if she likes tubing yet.

The little gardeners.
Andy and Carrie planted a sunflower with Grandma for a contest.
If it grows well, we will post pictures of it!


Jeanne caught a toad for the very first time in her life
at Eddie's grandfather's house in July 2004.
She's come a long way from her suburban
Columbus, Ohio childhood.




This was actually taken in February at the Y pool,
but they look like this in the summer at the pool, too!

We have to get some pictures of Eddie this summer!


Jeanne made this cake for the Holy Name of Mary cakewalk
for the parish feast day.
