The Real Ma Goes International

Maria "the Real Ma" has made it big in Hungary! Check out these recent photos taken at a bookstore in Budapest.

The flagship store of "Goluosh & Bogart" --- the Barnes & Noble of Hungary.


A beautiful reading room... let's check out the books.


That one looks familiar!


Papiron Prima! (type that into Google translator)


Maria Murnane... now a famous A SZERZOROL!

The Debate Rages On

While much of the world debates the merits of building the equivalent of an "Islamic YMCA" a few blocks from Ground Zero... we here at the Murnane Family Blog have a much headier and intellectual argument going on. The question: What Exactly Was Ma Wearing the Night of Mo's 40th Birthday Party?

The woman in question is wearing what exactly....?


Perhaps an ode to a once reliable and incredibly stylish car that for all too short of a time graced Metro Circle with its presence?


There has never been a greater time in Rick's life than those few glorious months he was able to call this beauty his "wheels."


Perhaps the get-up was in honor of this children's classic?


A giant purple crayon perhaps?


"Back in the day" - (i.e. the 80's) these legendary purple M&M's were once thought to be a powerful aphrodisiac and were coveted by adolescent boys from coast to coast.


Could it be....?


Vegas has weighed in and made it clear that the big dinosaur is the odds on favorite


We have reported..... YOU decide!

Back to the Future

The unthinkable has happened: baby sister Monica has turned 40! To celebrate, the masses came out in droves all done up in their best 80's gear. Much like the legendary 70's party to celebrate Mo's 30th... everyone went all out! Of course, who could resist the opportunity to revert to the glory days that were the 80's?

Since this was a surprise party.... Monica didn't get a chance to dress up. Gotta love the vintage "Paly Keg" in the background.


Sonny Crocket/Luke Morey... one in the same.


"The lights are on.... but you're not home...."


Robert Palmer and his girls were the musical headliners of the festivities!


No Brett did not just forget his pants... that was last weekend. On this night he went as everyone's favorite brothel owner of the 80's.


Most inspirational movie scene of the 80's? Very well could be!


Good of Ma to dress up... but Barney was a big hit in the 90's, not the 80's!

Brooke's First Holy Communion

This past weekend we celebrated First Holy Communion. Check out Brooke and Ryan in their 'Sunday Best.'

Ryan Morey -- almost as tall as his mom!


The beautiful Brooke shows off her lovely white dress.


Looking dapper as usual, Ryan checks out the crowd.


Another good picture of Brooke all dressed up.

Fun in the Sun

Last weekend all the "American Murnane" grandkids had a fun filled day of sport as both the Morey and Sharkey families took part in games of skill and athleticism.

Brooke shows off her blazing speed as she heads for first after hitting a frozen rope to deep left center.


Brooke rounds first and heads for second!


Showing off her fielding skills, Brooke the "Human Vacuum" scoops up another sharp grounder in the infield.


A bit further to the south, Brett smiles with Jordan and Lauren just before Jordo's big soccer game.


Jordan out on the field!


Lauren shows off her athletic skills on the sidelines.


All worn out from her gymnastics... Lauren settles in for a mid-game nap.


The proud mom smiles with her soccer star!


The four "American Murnane" grandkids got together to reflect upon their day of athletic domination.... and plot further such exploits!
