Give Thanks!

It's November, and the last of our twelve monthly template designs is now up. Thanks again to all those who helped out in the Icon Contests!

November also means that Thanksgiving is less than three weeks away. Post your plans for the holiday weekend here!

And of course, the bank has shelled out interest for October... enjoy your earnings.

Spooky

The Cousin Club blog is a little bit spookier for its October theme. Bank totals and birthdays have been updated. Enjoy.

Induction Clarification

Technically speaking, Craig Lawrie's honorary membership status was confirmed, but he has not yet been officially inducted. That's what the ceremony is for.

Right now, the only real things (minor in my opinion) differentiating him from regular members are:

1. He doesn't yet have a vote at official meetings. Such official votes, though, generally don't include deciding on activities, so he can still have input on that.
2. He doesn't yet have a CC Bank account or a balance thereof.
3. His birthday is not yet set to be recognized in the monthly birthdays list.

He will receive all of these rights after his formal induction, which, personally, I'd like to have done in December. We'll have to use our November meeting(s) to plan the event. If we don't get our acts together, we might have to wait until March or May 2008, and that's no good for anybody.

Sorry for any confusion about Craig's status, but we all know he's as good as in!

Induction

As many of the members are already aware, we have a knew member to the Cousin Club. Craig Ian Lawrie was inducted into the Cousin Club, as an honorary member. He was inducted on August 4th by a unanimous vote of all those present.

We are very pleased to have Craig as an honorary member of our club. An official ceremony may be held at the closest possible convenience. Until then...Congratulations Craig!


PS. I'm sure that Tim will see this post and consequently have more to say on the subject. But, alas, I tried!

September

I just got back from a Pitt Trumpet party and figured that since I was awake, I could take the necessary ten minutes to do the monthly update to this website, which is now complete.

You know the drill... you know what's changed. Enjoy.

General Update

The template has been updated for August, and bank interest for July has been added.

Congratulations to Marilyn for her Hole in One on the 11th hole, and to Jim for winning!

P.S.: I'm not ashamed of my poor scores. I never claimed to be great.

New Icons

Nobody was participating in the icon contests, and I was finally able to access Photoshop, so we came up with our own icons for the rest of the undecided months. Here they are:

July	August	September	October	November

We'll be keeping the July layout for the first few days in August, since July's almost over. Then we'll move on. See everyone at the Fun Week!

Almost there...

The family reunion and Cousin Club Fun Week are almost upon us!

I can't wait to see everyone!

Template Issues

A few weeks ago at my house, we installed a new hard drive on our family computer and got it running Windows XP. But Photoshop is on the old hard drive, and the two don't recognize each other.

To make a long story short, for the time being, the Cousin Club blog will stay with the June template. I mean, it's still summer; we can still have a smiling sun in the corner, can't we?

On totally unrelated notes:

• Bank interest for the month of June 2007 will still be added just after midnight on July 1, 2007.
• Remember to submit your response forms for the Cousin Club Fun Week by July 15, 2007.

Here's hoping your June was wonderful, and wishing you the best for July!
