The Fine Family

I found blogging! I thought "Hey - why don't we use it as a way to stay in touch and communicate!" It doesn't take much to comment and share whats going on with each other. Especially with a special 50th anniversary, a new baby and a new World Poker Champion coming in the family!!!! I would love a place where we can celebrate our family and our lives together! Anyway I have created it and am hoping that you will all join in!

Summer's almost over!

Can you believe it?
I can't - it went by really fast! Montana spent almost a week with us and is now in Puerto Vallerta with her mom and Arlen and Carly. She was very excited! Montana and I went to Wonderland and Mont finally went on scary roller coasters (started with the Dragon Fire 2ce then Tomb Raider and finally TOP GUN!!!) Warren and I are off to Vegas for an end of the summer get away - it's funny but this time I really wanted to go! it amazes me how fortunate we are that we can take 2 trips in a summer. I truly feel blessed to have Warren and Montana and all of you in my life. Warren and I are going on 10 years together this October! I know that we don't always have time to talk and catch up and spend time together, but I want you all to know that we are here for you if you ever need to talk or just want to hang out! Family is the most important thing in life - after all who else do you have to watch your back! - ok I've been watching too many movies!LOL

Anyway we look forward to seeing Allen, Bonnie and Madison (and the bump!) in Sept.

Danny we are happy to hear that you are doing better even with a cold. Just think in the long run it will be much better for you! Oh yeah - I am going to attempt to play poker this trip to Vegas (I may be all talk!) - any advice?

Complete Systems is busy as usual keeping Warren on his toes! I am working away at my products and book and my website and really enjoying it. I am looking at putting together a seminar soon and may be looking for guinea pigs! Any takers?

I also decided after MUCH consideration to assist with the Introduction Leader's Program with Landmark (the program I took last summer). I will be responsible for the statistics of the program and will be at the Friday night classes and the weekends in New York - Yes I love NY can you tell?

Anyway love to all and we miss you!

Hey everyone!

Just a note to update you on what is going on. Montana comes home from Camp tomorrow!!!!
Warren is working hard as usual! I am working on my coaching program, website and book! Can't believe that it is August 15th!!!! where did the summer go? We had a great and relaxing summer, and since Marsha has said she wants to take Montana for the last week Warren and I decided to take a last-minute trip to Las Vegas! We'll be going over Labor Day weekend and are very much looking forward to it!

News on Marsha, Marsha and Tracy are back together again "For now." (Says Marsha) We are hoping they make up their minds so there is some stability for Montana at the other house. Montana will be with us this weekend through till next weekend and then for the first week of September after school starts through Warren's birthday. We are looking forward to spending a lot of time with her, as we really missed her this summer. Montana finished all of her swimming lessons, so she can't take any more swimming until she's 12 years old, we are very proud of her.

We went to the camp for visitors day and it was our first time getting to go into the camp. Jamie came with us and spent the day with Arlen and Alexandra. It was great to finally see the camp and to let the dogs go swimming. (Yes I said dogs - the little white dog is Schmata - Marsha's dog) - it really was a great day except Warren and I were silly and got sun burnt - oh well.

Lauren I hope you are having a blast! I think you come home this weekend. Enjoy the shopping and don't worry about the airport security upgrades - just don't bring water and get to the airport early! Hope disney and seaworld were fun and you have done lots of shopping! - if you have any questions just get call us or email us! I know you don't like pictures but it would be great to see some!

We hope everyone else is happy and healthy! We saw Abby on Danny's birthday and she looks like she is coming along!

Hopefully we will get to see most of you on the holidays that are coming quickly and Allen and Bonnie and Madison in September!

Love to all
Melanie and Warren

August! Can you believe it?


Hi all,
Can you believe it is August already? 1/2 of the official summer is done and boy has it been hot here!!! Hopefully we will get some rain today!
It was great to see everyone at Danny's birthday party on Saturday! I hope Lauren is having fun in Florida.

We just got a letter from Montana - she is now in the second term of camp and things have changed for her. Alot of her friends went home - she said she cried! she has moved cabins now

We are going up to see her on Sunday!
We will take pictures and post them for you.

We just found a hornet's nest in the tree in the front yard - this is our third one since we moved in. The guy just came to take it down. (Warren was a little freaked out about it!) It is amazing how quickly the hornets can build a nest and how organized they are! - I figure that it took only a couple of weeks to get this big!

Oh well at least it is gone now!

Love you all and talk to you soon!
