Friends

Without a doubt...
we have some of the best people in the world to count as our friends. 
And just for the record... these are in no particular order! 
Location was based primarily on my ability to find "the right" picture!
If you're missing, let me know!!

Kenny, Shannon and kids
My niece Shannon, her husband Kenny and their children during a September 2007 trip to Jamaica.

L to R:  Shannon, Caroline (4), Gabrielle (2), Kenny and Madeline (6).

Daniel & Brandy
We've known Daniel for years and years, and now we've become lucky enough to get to know Brandy!  I guess you could call Brandy a "recent acquisition" :) of Daniel's, considering the fact that they started dating in 2006... and on January 27, 2007, Daniel asked Brandy to marry him, we approved, and she said yes!  Daniel's still great to hang out with and always brings the Captain... but Brandy can tear up a kitchen and cooks some awesome stuff!  Congrats guys, we love ya both!

Andy Andreatta
Recently nicknamed "Naked Bald Guy", Andy's a blast to hang out with... and he definitely knows how to have a good time.  If you ever need to make a few bucks quickly, play poker with Andy!  :)  And be sure to ask him about his idea for a one-aisle supermarket.  A recent transplant from Tampa, it's been a good thing for us and Richmond!

Gayle & Marilyn Brigman
Moving to Richmond, VA in 2001, we couldn't have asked for better neighbors... and friends!  These two are an incredible couple!  We consider ourselves so lucky to have them consider us as their friends.  This picture was taken atop the Stratosphere when the four of us went to Las Vegas in 2002.   We love these guys!

 

Lisa & Aaron Persinger
... and their two daughters, Cameron and Britney, are great friends and neighbors.  Lisa spends most of her time trying to keep Aaron in line.  :)

Jimmy Erdakos
Jimmy's the son of one of my best friends, and I was fortunate enough to be asked to be Jimmy's God Father.  Jimmy lives in Tampa, and I get regular updates!  He's into everything a teenager should be... and stays out of trouble for the most part!  :)  He better! 

Harrison Fox
I know I'll get complaints about the picture, but we'll deal with it!  Harrison is one of our great friends from Tampa... part of our family.  We're hoping someday he'll come visit.  The three of us had some memorable times together (although many of those can't be discussed!).  We miss you!!

Jesse
Jesse's a young man we met here in Richmond.  Always working, and playing hard too(!), he recently joined the U.S. Army.  He's currently completing training in preparation for shipping out to Iraq.  He's quite a guy... and it's been obvious that the experience, although difficult, has been a good choice for him!

Mike & Francine Bauer
Our neighbors in Tampa for 5 wonderful years!  We scared the hell out of them at first, but they caught on quickly!  No telling how many hours we spent together on the deck.  No telling how many bottles of wine were consumed!  We always had so much fun together... and miss those times!  Who can forget Y2K New Years' and the trampoline!  We officially claimed their 3 kids as our own... and we're not giving them back!

Josh "Li'l Man" Bauer
Josh is now 17, chasing girls, and dealing with school.  He's interested in culinary arts and hopes to attend the Culinary Institute of America (CIA) in New York.   He still has issues dealing with flour, but it's getting better!   Josh always hung out with me during football games... especially Monday Night Football.  I remember how excited he was when he was finally old enough to stay up for the whole game!  Josh also helped invent and encourage "Pool-Ball"... we spent hours upon hours playing... and I'm still sore!

Steve Bauer
My buddy!  Steve is now 21.  Unbelievable.  He's got a great (although slightly twisted - in a good way) sense of humor.  This picture was taken when Steve was 18 and came to visit us in Richmond for a Bucs party.  We're really proud of Steve!  He's always got a place in Richmond! 

eryn.png

Eryn Bauer
Watch out for this one!  She's a hottie!  Cruising around in her silver VW bug, Eryn's got the looks and the talent!  Not only is she an extremely accomplished musician, but she maintains a 4.8 GPA.  She is currently applying to some of the top schools to continue her education.

Alex and Wendy
Neighbors and friends from Tampa, Wendy's always been a blast to hang out with!  So many fun times!  We watched her son Alex grow up and turn into a fine young man.  So many challenges, but Alex really seems to get it!  It's so cool to see a young man so aware of how important his Mom is... and how much of a friend a parent can be!  We're very proud of Alex (and his Mom too!).

brian e1.png

Brian & LouAnn Erdakos
Unfortunately, we don't have a digital picture of Brian and LouAnn together!  We're working on that.  Brian and LouAnn have been great friends and still live in the Tampa area.  No matter how busy all of our lives get... we still manage to stay in touch.  Brian and LouAnn just visited in October 2005... we  had a blast and we all picked up right where we left off.

travis.png

Travis & Gina Pointon
Another die-hard Bucs fan and great friend, Travis was always around for any Buccaneers event. He's also a brand new Daddy!  Who'da thunk it!  They're an awesome family... and I'm very proud that they consider us friends.  You know, Terry deals with me... Gina deals with Travis... they are special folks to be able to handle us!  Meanwhile, Travis and I party on!!!

Mike & John
Finally, a current picture!  Mike & John are die-hard Panthers fans... and aren't too fond of the Bucs... so it makes for a fun time!  We first met at a bar right after the Panthers shredded the Bucs a couple of years ago.  It was a long night, but fun!  These guys are always fun to hang out with... wish we could all get together more often!

newpics 014.png

Tim & Carrie
We always have such a good time together!  From Williamsburg to Applebee's (try a Baltimore Zoo!) to playing poker at home (KABOOM!), we can make any situation a blast.  We keep trying to convince them to move to VA... we'll see what happens!  They also have some of the most creative costumes at our parties... all hand-made!  They are also the Florida state co-presidents of Beyonce's national fan club in respect of their favorite song of all time... "Crazy in Love". 

brenda.png

Brenda (a.k.a. ButtNip)
Not only is Brenda a co-worker, and great friend who welcomed us to Virginia... she took it an extra step and bought the house behind us!  We're now planning to move (hehe - just kidding!).  Brenda and Terry love creating new products to sell to the general public... be very happy that none of these have been released!

chris&joyce.png

Chris & Joyce Lloyd
Chris and Mike grew up in Maryland together... moved away... and finally got back in touch around 2000.  Chris is a pilot for American West.  Haven't happened to meet Joyce yet... but someday!  They currently live in Arizona.

Cliff & Amy Messer
Cliff's the undisiputed neighborhood leader of Halloween decorations (yes, Cliff, you win!).  And somehow, Amy puts up with it all... but we're still trying to figure out where it all gets stored!  Cliff and Amy's kids are awesome... they're all a lot of fun!

img_4237.png

Austin
One of our better neighborhood skate-rats, Austin's usually flying up and down the street.  He claims that his sister drives him crazy, but we all know better!

img_4240.png

Alexis
She's so cute and sweet... and never any trouble at all!  (Right, parents?!!)  She's a complete ball of energy.  I think she's capable of getting anything she wants with that smile and those eyes!

jeff & kelly.png

Jeff & Kelly Andes
They've been great neighbors and have become great friends.  And they're always up for a party!  If you haven't, you need to see these two dance!!

Julia!
Also known as "Ms. Jack", Julia is a riot!  She watches over our neighborhood, knows everyone and everything and is always looking for a good time.  Did I say that?!  She's such a neat person, and always brings a unique perspective to any situation!  This picture was taken at Halloween 2007.

scott1.png

Scott "Scotters" Ference
We've know Scott forever I think!  Originally from FL, Scott now lives in Seattle.  We've had so many fun times together, we don't know where to start... like the time we all got sandblasted on the causeway (really, it was funny!)... or the 3rd time his car caught fire (or was it the 4th...?!).  We miss Scott!  He's got a new boyfirned, but I don't have a pic to post.  Then again, spreading your legs on bleachers during a Little League Game... you'll attract something!
