Greetings
from the one swing state that Romney won! And, a Merry Christmas to
all!
Our
children and grandchildren are all doing great. Liz, Brent, and family
are still in Charlotte after almost 6 years, so we get to see them
often. Liz is very busy with her many volunteer activities in school
and elsewhere. Brent is doing well with Wells Fargo and coaching the
kids in soccer. Both of them are exercise fanatics with running, swimming,
biking, and morethey both look great! The grandkids, Cate (9),
Paige (7), Sam & Will (5) spent about 6 weeks here this summer
and all are swimming, water skiing, learning to sail and play golf.
Cate ran in a 5k Turkey Trot over Thanksgiving and won her age group!
Cathy
took a great trip to Italy with two sisters and a friend. The friend
had been a number of times before and arranged fabulous tours for
them. They thoroughly enjoyed seeing and learning the history of Rome
and Florence. Her golf was derailed again by a bad back, but she seems
to be on the mend now. Clothing sales down again!

landscaping in Spring!
Brooke
took his annual golf trip to Pinehurst in the Spring. And, he continues
to waste many days a week struggling around the course! We journeyed
to Seabrook Island near Charleston to visit friends in August and
were able to attend the PGA Championship on nearby Kiowa Islandeven
worked out with Tiger Woods (really just a fluke that he was at the
Seabrook gym when they were).
That
isn't our yacht in the background: (Tiger's actually)
Brookes 4th annual ski trip with friends to Aspen/Snowmass in
early December cancelled due to lack of snow. He has rescheduled for
January and is hoping for better conditions!
We returned to Charleston in December for our nephews destination
wedding. The grandkids were flower girls and ring bearers and had
a ball (as did the rest of us!) There was a lot of dancing, great
food, family, and friends!!
Best wishes to you and your family.
Cathy & Brooke
