Another Mrs. Murphy Added to the Fold!

Just to update you on our wedding on 5th Feb 2011 on Waiheke Island off Auckland in New Zealand. It was a small wedding on a beautiful sunny warm February attended by all of Eamon's children and respective partners as well as Rebecca's Mum & Dad. Uncle Michael's Michael and Auntie Teresa's Johnny were able to attend the Wedding Mass and Reception. It was an utterly amazing day and we wished the whole Murphy Clan could have been with us on our special day. We will keep you updated with photos but here are two tasters!
Love
Michael & Rebecca

Laura Doing Well After Operation

For those of you who are unaware, Mrs. Laura Murphy had a fall late last month and cracked her hip. The injury required an operation and insertion of a metal plate, which is quite traumatic for anyone, never mind a person who's 93 years young! My sister Rita tells us that she is making steady progress. Post-op is always a worry with the possibility of infection and pneumonia, but thank God she is in good hands and being moitored closely. She had the operation 30th January, just a week ago, and she is pictured here sitting up in bed.
Thank you all for your prayers and well-wishes.

God Bless,

Cormac
