Thanksgiving Dinner 2014 Group of 8 at our table: Before I went to Harrah’s to enjoy the Lazy River Pool, my friend Greg joined me for the MARK NORMAND: YA DON’T SAY Comedy Show at Harrah’s Resort. I laughed so much my mouth hurt:
My friend Greg owns a Yacht down at Humphreys by the Sea in San Diego, and many of my friends have joined him on it. Steve, Sarah, Caroline, Karen, the Dog Stella, & Steve on Greg’s Yacht:
One time the boat Captain: Greg (on the wheel) took us on an amazing 3 hour tour:

Both Sarah & Caroline were Reporters:on our 2 TV Shows: Entertainment & Sports Today, and Entertainment Today on “Lego City: Deep Sea Adventure SUBMARINE RIDE Grand Opening” at Legoland:In fact little 7 year old Sarah, did a great job of interviewing The Submarine Captain! Sarah is also a rock star, and has her own band, as we interviewed her when she sang and played guitar up on stage at the Henry Fonda Theater in Hollywood: In the below photo you can see 3 generations of our family at the Circus in Woodland Hills, California in 2012. The boy in the blue shirt on my right, is now taller than his father Wayne- who is on the left of the photo. On my left knee is little Caroline- the younger sister of Sarah- who is on my right knee. About 13 years ago- Sarah was only 2 and 1/2 years old, and Caroline was only 1 and 1/2 years old. So you can see how both of these girls grew up fast, and now they are the same height as their mother: Karen- who took the photo:
My good friend Steve of over 30 years, is the husband of Karen, and is the father of Sarah, and his other daughter is “Sweet Caroline.” He owns the biggest Carvel Ice Cream store franchise on the West Coast. When the Coronavirus his us in March of 2020, Steve made a Carvel Ice Cream Cake for the legendary singer: Neil Diamond – with the new version of words to Neil’s song “Sweet Caroline” on it, to help inspire people to fight this deadly disease. Then Steve sent this cake to Neil’s House in Beverly Hills. Neil loves the cake – since he loves Steve’s Carvel Ice Cream so much! Below is a photo of that actual cake:
Our 2 TV Shows: Entertainment & Sports Today, and Entertainment Today broadcast a show about my birthday party:At this party where I had over 30 guests who attended. I am in the middle of the photo in the white hat, and next to me is the mother: Karen, who has her hand on the head of her younger daughter Caroline, and next to Caroline is her big sister- Sarah. Jaden (3rd from the left) is now taller than his father: Wayne- 2nd from the left: We all sang “Sweet Caroline” for Steve & Karen’s daughter Caroline. CNN picked up this story and goes national- with a story about Neil Diamond’s new version of the words for the song: “Sweet Caroline”– as in our previous news story, and a segment in their national TV Broadcast about Steve’s cake and those magical new words from the new version of Neil’s iconic song ” Sweet Caroline”. Below is a still photo of Steve’s Carvel Cake from that Live CNN TV Broadcast, – that was from Katie Diamond as she posted it on her Twitter account which ended up on CNN:
CNN said: “Steve is a Neil Diamond fan who named one of his daughters Caroline after Neil’s iconic song. He had a chance to tell Neil Diamond he named his daughter after the song on one of Neil’s visits to his store in West Los Angeles. Neil is a fan of the vanilla soft serve and the ice cream sandwiches when he stops by the store. Today the song moved the owner(Steve) and the cake was delivered and accepted by Katie Diamond.”
At a Neil Diamond Concert (above photo) back on 8/8/17 in San Diego– Steve took his wife and 2 daughters: 6 year oldSarah (there are more stories on Sarah on our show- Entertainment & Sports Today – that includes 2012 Presidential Candidate Mitt Romney), and 4 year old “Sweet Caroline” with him, and was given VIP Band seats right in the middle and right in front of the stage, and when Neil Diamond performed his classic song “Sweet Caroline” – he was looking directly at Steve and little 4 year old Caroline, and acknowledged them during that song, as Steve was tossing Caroline into the air! This was Neil’s very last concert in San Diego(see above photo taken by Steve from right in front of the stage). See photo below from this concert of – L – R: Sarah, Steve, and little “Sweet Caroline” in their Band seats :
At Steve’s Carvel Ice Cream store, he was very honored to have 2 US Presidents make a special appearance in his store, since they knew how good his Carvel ice cream is: The 44th President Barack Obama, and our current president – Donald Trump! In addition, Steve’s daughter Sarah meet Mitt Romney during his 2012 Presidential Campaign stop! As you can see in the below photo you can see him hold up little Sarah, when she was only 7 months old, as her proud father: Steve looks on:So we have now come full circle with Sarah – from only 7 months old to today- at almost 15 years old!
