The Bohlens have been laying low and pretty much staying home outside the occasional trip to our local farm to see the animals. We perfected the art of the virtual birthday as Connor turned three in May and Gigi turned one in June. Bobby (painstakingly) built the kids a playhouse / jungle gym as we aren't visiting playgrounds for now, and Connor has been really into crafts and puzzles (and his first s'more!). Gigi is getting more mobile and is still the happiest baby in the world. We miss everyone and are disappointed to have had to cancel our trip to Cleveland this summer, but we are hopeful the world will be a safer place next year and we can have a nice long visit then. Be well! Love, Jacque, Bobby, Connor, and Gigi
Evie & Adams: So, we've got the COVID-19, only the 19 part. 19 extra pounds around our waist, thighs and belly. Due to these symptoms, there will be no pictures of us.
Our days are pretty much work, work, work and work. Then vodka soda/whiskey that turns into a full bottle of wine being opened and consumed. Our beaches around here finally opened up around a month ago then it was shut down for a few days again around July 4th. To be honest, we are just glad that everyone's healthy. ❤
Since there hasn't been any traveling, all we have been doing is cooking what my belly is craving. Here are some pictures!
Hope everyone's well, safe & healthy!

Joe & Corrine: Arizona is currently the number 1 location in the world for C-19. We are pumping out sick people like there is no tomorrow.
Corrine and I have been locked away since shortly after returning from Mexico on March 10. We have been challenged to occupy ourselves. We have turned to something I never thought we would do---jigsaw puzzles. I hate finite, little detail things but with nothing else to do, its jigsaw. We have gotten reasonably proficient at putting them together. What else are you going to do locked inside; watch TV—ha!
The pic is the most recent one we completed—July 9th . It is a 500 piece puzzle and took us (off-and-on) a little less than 1 week. we are accumulating a library full of puzzles.
It’s a sad state of affairs when you spend the entire family blog telling about jigsaw puzzles. Get a life - right!!!!!!!
We are anxious to see some of the other activities everyone is doing to maintain sanity.

The Hummel family is taking it easy in Virginia. We’ve taken Ava to the beach twice and we were lucky to host my parents to celebrate my mom’s 60th birthday!
The Kuhn’s enjoyed the first half of summer in Florida where we spent our days at home swimming, fishing, and eating all the icecream. We are visiting Ohio for the second half of summer spending time with family.
Red, White, and Barbecue
Donny, Michelle, Timmy, Tony, and Tina
Tim and Janet are spending time with grandchildren and enjoying the great outdoors.
Miss you all and hope everyone is social distancing and wearing masks!!
As you know Josh and I got married in June and we had to postpone celebrate due to covid! Still hoping to celebrate in October or sept! Some also big deals is I quit my job to become a stay at home mom while josh travels for work! So far all is good and I’m loving all my time with Penelope! Below are some photos from the wedding!
The DeMasters: Finally feeling like we are settling into the new house and Charleston is starting to feel more like home, (even though the world is upside down.) We have enjoyed some much needed family visits this summer so far. We took a road trip to Ohio for Alisha’s (wedding) in June and have hosted Pete’s dad, and sister’s family in early July. We are officially slowing down and getting ready for baby #3 in Sept!!!! Hope everyone is staying safe and sane!
The Harrison's: We were blessed to stay healthy and safe together all through quarantine and enjoyed the slower pace and extra family time. I don't think I've cooked that much in my life! It was great to have family dinners every night! Traci (and Nana) took on the role of teacher for Braden, Luke and Harper while Traci also taught her own students remotely for more than 2 months. It was quite challenging, and we would not have managed without Nana's daily lessons (especially in 5th grade Language Arts and Social Studies)! Thankfully Brian was also "working" from home during this time since his baseball season was cancelled, and he had the kids outside in the backyard or on the soccer field our house backs up to everyday for "recess." Now, we are keeping busy with baseball and enjoy going to games 2 or 3 times a week, which is a nice break to get out of the house. Otherwise we are just laying low and trying not to let the boys play too many video games. Unfortunately we will not be taking our annual trip to Sunset Beach with the late start to the boys' baseball seasons and the ongoing uncertainty with this virus. We will miss the beach and Sunset Slush!!
The Young Pavias have been adhering to all stay-at-home recommendations to stay safe and cautious. In other words...we haven't really been doing anything at all! We look forward to sunny and hot weekends when we walk Shadow, do yard work, and lay out relaxing in the backyard. Raquel's got a pretty killer tan, and I'm still super white. I've got the garden up and running - tomatoes and herbs are doing great, but the peppers are suffering.
The most important news to share is that Raquel's swearing-in ceremony was rescheduled...and she's officially a US Citizen! Congratulations Raquel! Next step is we have to apply for a US passport and then re-apply/renew her Filipino citizenship so she can be a dual-citizen.
Everyone please be safe and take care of yourselves and others.
The Pavias: Still lying low due to coronavirus, but have been busy with our garden (a bumper crop of basil!), getting a few bike rides in, golfing in our leagues, venturing out of state to KY to see KY Pavia’s, and getting used to wearing masks! We celebrated 46 years of wedded bliss with our 1st dinner out in 3 months. We had the joy of having Davis with us for a week and had LOTS of fun with him and Harrison cousins.
Thankfully we are both healthy and enjoying the beauty of summer!
The Kentucky Pavia’s have been enjoying a fun summer given all of the changes we face. Davis went to farm camp for a week enjoying all aspects of farm life. He swears a chicken laid an egg in his lap!!!! Then he had a week at camp nana and papa in Cleveland with all sorts of fun and playing with cousins, aunts and uncles. The boys have both enjoying tennis lessons and lots of golf. We had a fun trip to the condo in North Carolina with a week filled with surfing, sand castles, sunset slush, catching crabs and burying daddy in the sand. We hope everyone is healthy, happy and enjoying a lot of fun family time! Love you all!

Hello family! Miss you all and hope everyone is social distancing and wearing masks!!
As you know Josh and I got married in June and we had to postpone celebrate due to covid! Still hoping to celebrate in October or sept! Some also big deals is I quit my job to become a stay at home mom while josh travels for work! So far all is good and I’m loving all my time with Penelope! Below are some photos from the wedding!
Zweigart’s had a great summer start with the happy event of Alisha and Josh’s quarantine wedding... we missed all of you, but it turned out simply beautiful!! We had a warm sunny day at our condo in Sandusky, where the ceremony took place. Afterwards, a delicious spread of street tacos was served for lunch (the brides favorite) and a lovely evening of family, fun and lots of dirty diapers (five and counting)
The DeMaster’s made the long haul from Charleston, (thank you!!!) and Shiggy and I had our first family gathering with all five of our grandchildren and we could not have been HAPPIER!!!!!
I know I sent too many pics but sometimes the rules need to be broken (at-least that’s my thought and always has been)
We have been spending every quarantine weekend, since the wedding, in Sandusky, enjoying the sunsets!
Reust Update:
Vanessa is finally back to work and putting her bread making days behind her. She is still enjoying her mini garden and getting back to reality of working with two kids, thanks gosh for the grandma's free babysitting. Rose enjoyed her very first icecream from the icecream truck and Judah is still nursing like a champ. The kid will be walking before Christmas, we just know it. Elijah is putting the finishing touches on his screen porch year and a half long project and we can't wait to host our first party out there, social distancing of course. Happy Summer Family.
