Four Generations Picture from Helen and Ivan


Here is a picture of Helen and Ivan's darling great grandbaby, Brooklyn (Colin's daughter). She's about two years old. Nice to see a picture of Colin, too - last time I saw him he was only about 9 years old. Dee Dee does not look like a Grandma!! I think she will need to learn to knit or something, giggle.

Christmas 2008 Slideshow

I was having some fun with the Picasa Picture program on the computer and thought I would make a little slideshow of our Christmas this year. They are mostly pics of Josie but she is pretty cute afterall! Enjoy!

A 7th Birthday Party


A Star Wars theme cake, I think.

We love you! Stay Safe!

Grandpa's 71st Birthday







Grandpa had many issues with his eyes this past year so Josie and I made him an "eyeball' cake for his birthday. If you look at it just right, it really does look like an eyeball! Really!

Thanksgiving 2008


We were thrilled to see Steve's family again. I can't even believe how mature the boys have grown just since last year! They are very tolerant, letting me get a bunch of photos of them again. Thanks guys!

A visit to Kim's - a meeting of two dads




The two dad's meet! Ben and Kim's dad, Jim, got along extremely well and they seem to have some things in common, too (besides a beautiful daughter)!
The pic to the right: Eddie (Kim's fiance), Ben, Kim, and her dad, Jim.
I think Ben visited in July 2007 before our Hocking Family Reunion.

Kim's Family







Above is Ben with Kim and her Baba and her Uncle Tom. The lower two pics are Kim's brother, Joel and her mother, Wendy, and grandmother (seated)- they were unable to attend Kim's Family Potluck in Sept. (Potluck pics posted after these).

Kim's Family Fall Potluck






















This is where Kim grew up! It was a special and important thing for us to see, I think. It is lovely home and such a beautiful location. We even got to see Kim's playhouse when she was a kid. Josie thought that was the coolest thing.

Kim planned some wonderful kids games and they all had a great time!
