dinner dance 2010

The annual "prom" with Jeff's firm...so fun to dress up and go out.

Kate's party

We celebrated Kate's 1st with the whole family about a week and a half later--it actually fell on her due date.

She may have gotten a little help from Mommy or Daddy in blowing out the candle.

This is Kate before eating her cake.

This is Kate after eating her cake. I know, it wasn't as messy as everyone hoped. She enjoyed her first taste of cake, though.

Just for laughs....

I've been meaning to post these pictures for some time. They gave us a good laugh and I thought you might enjoy them as well.....

My parents wanted to send out a picture of all their children and grandchildren in their Christmas cards this year. People always want to see the family. On Thanksgiving day we took a group shot on all of our cameras. (We are still in the habit of doing that--even in the digital age when sharing is so easy.)

Here is what my brother's camera produced....




In the end, mom and dad decided to send this one out instead....
