Moving to Utah

So I just got the word back from Utah state. And I'm happy to say they saw the light and let me into their school. They have no idea what they just got themselve into, but hey, it makes me happy so don't question it, right? If you could spread the word to the family out there. Thanks a bundle!!!! I'm Excited to be living out there next year.

Cheers,

Hello Family ~

We would like to invite everyone in the family over to our house after Gianni's graduation to celebrate with him in achieving his goal.

When: Friday, April 23, 2010

Time: 7:30 p.m.(Time may vary according to the length of the ceremony that evening)

Where: Tio Carlo & Tia Marta's house

Please call me to let me know if you are coming, 801-225-7523.

Love ~ Tia Marta

ps. Tio Carlo and I left a journal with Nonna so that everyone that comes to visit her can leave a brief message of how Nonna is doing.

Nonna

Just wanted to share how much fun it was visiting Nonna on Wednesday. The woman is still full of spunk and her quick wit is amazing. I know the situation isn't ideal but honestly, I think it's the right thing for her. She is really enjoying having so many people around her, events going on at the care center and things to gossip about :). The Brown's are on the calender for Wednesday's, so we fully intend to experience many more memories with her.

Easter

Easter with the family is always a treat.

There are the many quirky traditions that always take place year after year.

One is always guaranteed lots of laughter, amazing food, an easter egg hunt and pictures by the infamous tree.

This year we were lucky to have Nonna, Aunt Carolina and Samantha with us. Francesca and Gabie we missed you dearly.

Here are some of the highlights in pictures:

The beginning of our journal.

Hello Santamaria family!

Remember a couple weeks ago I agreed to start a blog for our family? Well it's now or never, so here is our first of many posts, hopefully. With the combined efforts of all of us, we will have this blog as our online journal for upcoming events, photos, birthdays and anything else that we feel we want to blog about. In essence this is also a family newsletter. If there is something exciting you want to announce, promotions, birthdays, events, etc, this will be a place where we can post about those things.

This is a combined effort, meaning I am not the sole person posting on here. This is how it will work. I will simply post what you email me. So if you want there to be something posted on here, email me exactly what to be posted, pictures, and the entry-I will then upload it and it will be there for all of us to see.

If I hear from no one, then don't worry, I will be coming to you and asking that you type up a post to keep us all in the loop of what is going on with you or you and your family. I don't want to be a nag, so just simply email me!

With family in New Jersey, Utah, Maine, Boston, soon California, Chile, Italy, I think this will be a great way to feel connected with everyone and at the same time to have a journal for our family in years to come.

First I want to get everyone's birthday's so we can all be aware, and post a special shout out to that person. So if you could please email me birthday's I'd appreciate it.

My email is santamaria.beverly@gmail.com

Another thing, I am going to make this a private blog. So I will send you all an invite within the next week or so. I don't think we need to have our family journal out there for cyberspace to read.

If you have any questions please ask away, or post your comments on the comment section of each post.

Thanks everyone!

Love Bev
