Younger 10 Daoust Aunts and Uncles

Well, here's the other half of the bunch of aunts and uncles...the younger ones. I'd like to hear a few guesses re when this was taken. I am guessing it was December or January and everyone was gathered together for Christmas or some holiday.

Greetings from N.C.

I am Paul Daoust's daughter and I live in North Carolina with my husband, Jim, and 11-month-old son Danny. Here's a photo of us from this summer. I also maintain a blog that's mostly about Danny, but I do post some funny stories about the other kids in the house - my husband and the dog. You can see that blog here.

It's been wonderful to see all the photos and hear news about family. Being in N.C., we feel rather isolated from the rest of the family. This is such a great idea!

Cousins, Aunts and Stepdaughters

The first picture's my two stepdaughters, Shayla & Bria (now 15 and 13), the next picture are some of the cousins, Traci, Carolyn, me, Donna, Bernie, Nancy, Bernie III, and Heather. The next picture - Aunts - Aunt Yvonne, Aunt Marie, Aunt Frankie, Aunt Irene and my mother, Annette.

Heather & Allie Johnsen (Zobre)

Now here is a pic of Heather and her daughter Alexandria. We all call her Allie. She will tell you her name is Allie if you call her anything else. She is 4 yrs old but she talks and acts like she is 25. Just ask Joanne. Well that is all for now. Just going through the photos and adding them to my new computer.

Austin & Devon Hover (Zobre)

I don't know how many of you know that Dave had a child when he was in High School. But he always said that he would find him when he turned 21. Well that day was eleven years ago. His name is Jonathan and he has a son Austin in the plain yellow shirt. He is twelve. He did not marry Austin's mother. Jonathan is married now and he and his wife Kelly have a son Devon. Devon and Kaleb are 7 months apart. Kaleb being older. We keep in touch with them and they don't live far. Eric is close to him. When they talk about one another to anyone they refer to each other as brother and sister. Heather also talks to him alot. Just a little update on the grandchildren. 3 boys and 1 girl.

Eric & Kaleb

Hi Michelle this is Terri sending you info you requested from Tom. It very rarely snows in NC and if it does the State shuts down. They do not have the equipment to clear it. My son Eric was in the Marines and he also was stationed in NC but it was in Cherry Point. He was in Crash/Fire/Rescue so this is an Air Base. He is home now and is divorced and has a son (Kaleb) who is 3 soon to be 4 in January. There was one year that NC got some snow and the base shut down and Eric did not know because it was only about an inch. He got into the car and drove to the base once he go to the base they told him everything was shut down and they asked him to stay because he was there, and why did he come in. He told them that the snow was nothing. He is used to driving in 32 inches of snow in one storm. Yes it is humid but it should start cooling down a little and the humidity should be going away soon. Hope this helps.

Terri & Dave in Hawaii 2006

Here is Dave & I in Hawaii last August. Loved it we had so much fun. We spent two weeks. One week on Oahu. Yes we did all the tourist things. I even climbed Diamond Head, man I will never do that again. We were right on Waikiki Beach. The second week we went to the Big Island and that was not as busy. We did walk down to where the lava cut off the road that goes around the island and walked halfway down to where the lava is flowing into the ocean. We only went halfway the steam was coming right at us and it is somewhat toxic so we did not go any further. All and all it was great but after the airplane it will be awhile before I or we go again.
