Pictures!!

This picture was taken at my Uncle Rees's wedding! :)















This was taken this summer at my cousin Brittany's wedding! :)












This is the picture of the house I am living in with my 3 roommates! I LOVE IT~!!

Hey how is everyone!?!?

Hey! I just thought I would give everyone an update on what is going on with me up in good ol' Utah!! I just finished my first month of training and I only have 3 more months to go! :) I am absolutley loving my job! I have had some fun and interesting calls! I have some awesome roommates and I am enjoying my time up here! I am going to Vegas tomorrow to the family, I am really excited for that! :) I hope everyone is doing well and I will add a few pictures of me! :) I love you all tons!!

I miss everybody! Where are you?



Okay, it's cold here (I know Marla, it's colder up there). But here's my weekday morning routine. The Mr. gets up first and right about the time that he leaves, the Miss gets up, and about the time she leaves she will call out to me "by Mom!" That's my cue to get up. So I get up and get my act together and when it's time for me to leave - sigh, this is what "tells me goodbye." Petey G. Hartman just lounging in bed. The dog's life.

How is everybody? Just super busy? Come on, let's chat. What's happening in your lives? Dave said over dinner this evening that we should think about what size car we should rent when we come to the reunion. So, we are thinking ahead! Alright, I'm not going to ramble on - but somebody please come back and chat -- who knows what photograph I might be tempted to put on here just to get your attention! NOT!

Love to all - Cindy

Hey I want more pictures!

It's been quite awhile since
we've seen new photos! So I
decided to share these! May
I introduce you to
Mr. Hartman, 6 & 7th grade
math teacher, and
Miss. Hartman, 9th grade English.
Aren't they just adorable! Tee hee hee.
Where is everyone? Jen - I'm anxiously waiting to see pictures of your children! I can hardly believe Courtney is 15! I have such a wonderful memory of holding you (Jen) when you were only 4 days old! Sigh.
And wow that little Noelle, what a beauty - I really like those pictures - she was getting into baking those cookies! Nick, Becky and Noelle - you make a beautiful family.
Debra and Gary - I'm still waiting to hear what kind of puppy that is napping with Gary! What a cutie (the puppy ha ha ha).
Chris and Alicia - please post so we can see your family too.
It's ccccoooolllldddd here! There was no school on Friday, so Dave and Rachel have had a 3 day weekend. I'm working in a shopping mall and it has to be a state of emergency before we are closed. After all, where do all the kids go when there is no school? The mall!!
Rachel and her boyfriend went skiing on Friday, I haven't had a chance to visit with them, it's the boyfriend's birthday, so they are in Philly with his family celebrating.
I have started a little side business (Dave calls it my money making hobby). I'm an independent demonstrator for Uppercase Living. Go on line and check it out if you have a moment. UppercaseLiving.com. When you get to the home page you can log in as a customer, use my ID: 358521 and hartman. Let me know whatcha think.
Brenda any word yet on the position? Pam, what are you all up to? Come on, let's chat.
Tim, thanks for getting the email addresses to me, Ciara got right on there, now we need to hear from her siblings. Of course I haven't gotten Rachel on here yet either.
Dave is zoned out in the living room - he flips channels back forth between Matrix and Dances with Wolves. Ugh.
Well, I'm gonna stop now. Hope everyone checks in soon starts sharing.
Love to all! Cindy

Hey Everyone!

Hey, It is so good to see everyone on here! :) I finally decided to e-mail Aunt Cindy my address, so that I could write on here too! I am really hoping that I will be able to go to reunion this summer, but as my parents said earlier, I just started a new job, so I don't know if that will be happening!

I am absolutely loving life up in Utah, the job is great! My roommates are fun and so far i am enjoying life! I will definitely keep everyone updated, I miss and love you all!!

West Coast Hartman's

Hi everyone! It's about time our family got into the digital age. I have enjoyed reading all of the prior posts and am very excited to reconnect with you all! We really want to go to the reunion but I need to look into finances before we can commit. We have a blog of our own as well if you'd like to check it out. ---> http://www.thehartmanstory.blogspot.com/ Becky and Noelle are actually in Kentucky (Berea) visiting her side of the family. Here's an interesting side note: I just mapquest'd Berea to make sure I was spelling it correctly and realized it is about 25 miles east of Danville. Small world! Either Becky or I will be posting pics soon.

Love,
Nick, Becky, and Noelle Hartman

Come on ... sing it with me .... We Are Family....

Oh boy was I tickled when I snuck a peak at the blog from work today! I had seen the pictures of the twins last night, then to see Cara's girls (I loved being a Girl Scout), Gary sleeping with his puppy (what kind of dog is that?) and Jen's post - yahooooooo!

Jen or Chris - I tried Nick's phone last night and I think I was calling his work number, so I tried to leave him a quick message with my phone number and email. If you chat with him maybe you can clue him in.

Okay everybody, keep coming back and checking in and chatting. Tim, get those email addresses okay?

Love to all! Dave & Cindy

More Found Family!!!

I guess it's time to join the blogging world. If my old Aunts and Uncles can do it, I'm sure I can figure it out! :) I am actually at work reading all of your older post and was so excited to hear from Aunt Cindy last night. I will get some pictures posted soon, but we are all doing fine in Oregon and long for the family connection! Thanks for the Hartman Herald. Love & miss you all and blog ya later.

Jen & Paul LeCavalier

Gary's new puppy

Pictures

The girls became brownies this year when they started an all homeschooled troop. (None of the other local troops wanted us crazy homeschoolers - lol) The girls have earned their first badge for completing the history of the Girl Scouts and learning the GS promise and law. We are now working on Safety and Pets/Animal badges.






Brandon at Awana's
Christopher at Awana's

We were at the Inner Harbor this weekend. This pic is
Rachel fork feeding the pigeons her leftover soft taco
with guacomole (spelling suspect). She got sick last night
blames Chipotle Mexican Grill - I wonder if we need to check
on the pigeons.....




My sister from Florida (Fran) and her daughter (Kristel)
flew up here Thursday for the Baltimore Tattoo Convention
at the Sheraton Baltimore City. So to support Kris (she had
a booth at the convention) we all went down on Saturday.


My other other sister (didn't they make a movie about her? ha) Teresa and her daughter, Rose, came too (they live in
Frederick). So we had a nice visit us girls (oh yea and Dave too).


So Kristel let me take a pic of her as she was tattooing a client, I also had to ask the client for her permission.










Evidently Kris goes all over the place to conventions and makes good money. Last month she was in Austin, TX ya'll. I think she would have given us a discount on a tattoo - but we decided to let people pay her full price so she could get better money.





Here is Teresa (dark hair) Dave (gray/white hair) and Fran
(reddish brown hair) with my neice Rose the only one looking at me. Rosie's face says it all "Come on Aunt Cindy,
it's cold let's get movin'"





It was cold, but sun shining and beautiful. Now, right now as I'm typing this, the wind is really blowing and it's absolutely frigid outside. And I know if I'm this cold here that Hutch, Marla, Jess and Aunt Gail are really cold up in Vandergrift. Brrrr - I'm thinking of younz!!!





Okay, one more picture:



Gotta share
this one
because I pretty much forced Rose to stand next to this dvertisement for Valentine's Day dinner at Phillips Seafood Restaurant because
"YOU CAN'T EAT ROSES"

Yes, I'm that kind of auntie - loving, annoying, pesky, but loving.

Now that I'm becoming more comfortable with my camera, I'll try to put more pictures on and Dave and I will try to get more old family photos too.

Maybe we can get some of Grandmom/Mom/Peggy on there and get her to comment.

Anybody out there?

Brenda, How is the new position looking? Have you heard yet? I hope they didn't give it to that goober in Houston. they should know by now that you are the best thing that has happened to the Star-Telegram since the printing press.

Pam, We miss you & Louis! I can't begin to tell you how excited we are to see you guys in July. I hope that the kids (sounds funny to call them kids) can make it too.

Gary, Are you on yet? Come on brother........Debbie..........somebody from that house needs to get on the blog. Maybe one of the boys can get you started. I had to have Ciara help me.

Love to each and every one you.......and younz in Pennsylvania too.
