Lawson's Ninth Birthday: A Bowling Party

Lawson turned nine at the Victory Lanes, where his cousins Taylor and MacKenzie and his neighbor Pete joined him for a birthday bowling bash. His friends Matt, Drew and Garrett took a break from their baseball tournament to join in the fun. Bowling, pizza, chocolate cake, and a dancing demonstration from Matt made for a fun afternoon. After the event, Stephen went home and planted eggplant.

The Fave II

Stephen surprised the entire family with the purchase of a carefully used boat: a 16-foot, flat-bottomed Carolina Skiff with pull-crank 25hp engine with a throttle and steering wheel. The trailer was nothing to sneeze at either. As soon as it was in the water, Davis and Lawson took off. The initial report was the boat runs "awesome." They especially like how easy it is to start. They already have plans to take it crabbing this summer as well as on some outings to Williamson Island. Perhaps it will make the next river trip down the Ocmulgee.

Eighth Grade Play: Peter Pan

I smell a Tony! Davis and the rest of the eighth grade at St. Peter the Apostle entertained students and family with their production of Peter Pan. The alligator stole the show.

Easter 2008

The Easter bunny arrived again this year, but he couldn't hold a candle to JoJo's funny hats, Laurie's Easterlympics and a thrilling washers tournament. The only down side was that Stephen was forced to use a gas grill. Still, the burgers were tasty, and nobody starved to death.

After taking a break for a year, the Remlers returned in 2008 to the corner of Abercorn and McDonough for the annual St. Patrick's Day parade. We loaded the Lucky Truck with chairs and coolers and enjoyed the parade from the proverbial catbird seat. We saw old friends, wore funny hats, and made fun of men wearing kilts.

Davis hosted a birthday party Jimmy Buffet style--margaritas, a bonfire, dancing, and, of course, cake.

We're Back!

After an extended absence, Remlerville is back in action. We've been busy in the past few months. Davis got confirmed. Stephen spent his birthday at Eggtoberfest. Nancy went to Chicago. Santa came to town.
