Hello from Across the Pond -

Just a quick hello to update you on what is going on in London. John and I went to Monaco for the Grand Prix at the end of May. It was awesome, those F1 cars are so loud. It was my first Grand Prix! It was quite the glamorous weekend and so many very flash cars. We were invited out there by a brokerage firm that John does business with. It's so nice to have everything taken care of for you. Actually, John and I might be moving to Monte Carlo for his work. John and another partner in his firm are thinking about setting up an office out there. I am very excited about the opportunity and my fingers are crossed that things go through, I love it out there! A few weekends ago John and I went to a Bon Jovi concert up in Milton Keynes. Another work weekend, they organized limos and everything for us, it was a lot of fun. And just last weekend, one of John's best friends got married in Seville, Spain. John was one of the 4 Best Men. We flew out on Thursday morning and flew back Sunday afternoon. It was a beautiful wedding weekend. Other than that, we have just been hanging out, have had a few BBQs at our flat and watching the England World Cup games. I have attached a picture of us in Seville, near the Cathedral and Alcazar and at the concert and one of Monte Carlo Beach. I will be heading back CA on the 30th of June for a visit. I will be back for the entire month of July. Hope all is well with everyone else, and hopefully I might be able to see some of you while I am back in the Homeland. X Dana

So we don’t hog all the picture space, I will delete this pretty soon.

Barb’s anniversary is coming up so we bought her a brand new Bentley Continental GT. It is black (Beluga) with black interior. It is equipped with a 12 cylinder twin turbocharged, 6 liter, 552 horsepower engine, 6 speed automatic transmission with manual paddle shift levers on the steering wheel, all wheel drive and push button ignition. We upgraded to the Mulliner which gives burr walnut interior and burr walnut door panels front and rear and front and rear consoles. There is contrasting diamond quilting stitched leather seats, wood and leather steering wheel, custom Mulliner 20” 7 spoke sport rims, knurled chrome and leather sport shift knob, drilled alloy sport pedals and lambs wool floor mats. The Bentley emblem is embroidered into the seat backs, dual front heated lumbar massage seats ( moves up and down along your back), navigation system, 6 CD player, fancy radio, blue tooth phone system, etc. Vroommmmmm , Vroommmmmmm







Family Portraits! Please get your individual family pictures to Sarah as soon as you can. She and Claudia are chomping at the bit to get this quilt finished, and we can't do that until we have everyone's photos... Or I guess we could always insert this photo if we don't get yours:
