Bowling Bash 2008: More Fun than Laverne and Shirley













For a belated birthday celebration, Nancy and six of her most fun friends met at the Victory Lanes for a night of bowling and general silliness. Who would have thought that all seven women would be available on the same night on such short notice? Who would have thought they'd be willing to wear paper party hats for three hours? Who would have thought that Lori could bowl a 13 pound ball? Who would have thought that Nancy could score three strikes in one game? Who would have thought that cupcakes could be so delicious with pizza? Who would have thought that Michelle and Kalenda were actually professional bowlers in disguise? Who would have thought that seven professional women would assume alter egos like Frenchie, Hotpants and Striker? David Thompson was right. That was a lucky bowling shirt.

Nancy Turns 42











This year for Nancy's birthday the Remlers decided to maintain a tradition: a trip in the boat to dinner. As usual, the excursion was not without its mishaps (although this year's mishap was not as extreme as getting caught in a neap tide after dark). The Grady White's engine ran hot. Fortunately, we were close enough to the dock to turn around. We transferred to the Hydra-Sports, and all was well. The venue this year was A.J.'s on Tybee. The food was delicous; the sun was bright. After dinner we returned to Sapphire Island Road for Stephen's home-made chocolate raspberry rum cake. Yum!

Sanibel, 2008









The Remlers went back to the Florida's Gulf coast for a week of fun and relaxation. From shelling, fishing, biking, kayaking, swimming, eating and betting at crab races, we did it all. The weather was wonderful. In fact, we were a little disappointed at not having a tropical storm this year. Nevertheless, we found some beautiful shells and came home happy.

St. Peter the Apostle Graduation May 22, 2008









St. Peter the Apostle School held its graduation ceremony on Thursday, May 22nd. Among the honor graduates was Davis Remler. Davis looked so handsome in his new coat, on which he wore his lapel pins that he got last week at the awards night. Father O'Brien was tickled when Davis presented him with a box full of candy to replace the candy bars Father has been giving out all year to the eighth graders. After a trolley ride to the Savannah Yacht Club for a class picture, the eighth grade hosted a dinner for parents and relatives in St. Peter's new parish center. The eighth grade also presented Father O'Brien with a rocking chair with a St. Peter the Apostle Crest engraved in the back.

Nancy and Davis Take a Bite Out of the Big Apple










The Top of the Rock, the World Trade Center Tribute Museum, Dylan's Candy Bar, Central Park, SUNY Maritime College, four Broadway shows, Pier 17, Battery Park. Nancy and Davis got all the goodie out of Manhattan and a little bit of the Bronx. We shopped, ate, toured, biked, sailed boats, hooked up with friends, and shopped and ate some more. We had a big, big time.
