Did You See the Article About Me?

Hi all,

In case you didn't see me in the Breast Cancer Wellness Magazine, here is the link to the article about Me!

Tina in the Breast Cancer Wellness Magazine!

I am bringing this to everyone's attention because the lovely author and President of St. Conti Communications, Donna St. Jean Conti, was honored this month as a member of the team that produces the magazine. The Missouri Association of Publications (MAP) awarded the fall 2007 issue of Breast Cancer Wellness magazine the 2007 Dan Ranly Award for “Best Issue” in the consumer category.

Art Class in Bonaire! Here is me with the artist, Jan Huckaby. I contacted her to set up our private art class! I will put her link at right under "Tina's Fun Places".

Here we are the budding artists with our Flamingos! While working on these masterpieces, we were the quietest we have ever been.....funny!

February 4, 2008 - Nevis and Formal!

Well, here is the cruise crew while aboard the cruise ship last week! What a fabulous time with tons of memories!! This is the first formal night - don't we look grand? We didn't even plan the all black thing (except the boys of course since they were in their tuxedos!). The ship did pretty good with my special diet needs - after the first day or so! More to come soon.

ps - so sorry for being behind on entries! With the holidays, then 2 business trips (AK and Denver), then the cruise, and minor surgery there has been little time for play! Also, when I am posting here, I am going back and post dating entries so the date remains correct!

----------------------------------------------------------

Welcome to St Kitts! What a blast!

Oh here is a fun photo of some rockin' ship mates from a catamaran cruise we took from St. Kitts to Nevis. We just met these ladies, but boy did we have a great dancin' time on the boat!

I hope you girls found my site and that you are okay that I posted this photo of us!

me and my sweetie - what more can i say?
