2019 Merry Christmas

Merry Christmas,
2019 won’t go down as one of our favorite years to remember. There were a few ups and downs making it a so-so year. We did some quick trips this year, but no major vacation types. Hopefully 2020 will be a year we can go on a trip and really relax. 2019 did have some good things happen and some milestones accomplished. Following are a few photos to show and describe some of this year’s happening.

Our hope is that you had a good and prosperous year and that 2020 will be an awesome year filled with love, peace and joy for all of us.

Helaina Black Class of 2020
Helaina’s junior year she went to the prom with her besties and had a grand time. She is now in here senior year and getting all the graduation activities taken care of like senior pictures and oh yeah, plans for college after high school. Possibly thinking of the graphic design path.
Epicenter and Paul McCartney 2019
May 2019 was the month for concerts, turns out we had his and her’s concerts. I went to a 3-day outdoor multi-band “Epic” event in Rockingham, NC and Sheri went to see the Sir Paul McCartney in Raleigh, NC. We’ll see if we make it to any concerts in 2020 and maybe attend the same concert together.
County Line Gas Zebulon 2019
The seventh annual County Line Gas & Oil swap meet went off without a hitch. We had the most vendors this year than any of the past shows. Hoping to keep it going and growing. Come on out Oct 30-31, 2020.
Black family get together
In mid-November we managed to fly out to Missouri/Oklahoma to see family. I use the word “manage”, since the flights were not the most pain-free experience to put it mildly.
In Loving Memory Dorothy DeeDee Delorenzo
Also flew out to Arizona a couple of times this year, sad to say they were trips to say good-bye to my dear sister DeeDee after a lengthy battle with cancer. She will be surely missed. She always had an upbeat attitude and I know she would want us to enjoy life to the fullest and carry on. And our wish for you this coming year is to carry on and have a year full of every good thing life has to offer.
Merry Christmas & Happy New Year
