2007 Was a Good Year!
We didn't have to move; we didn't change jobs; there
were no major accidents; and, we DOUBLED the number of grandchildren!
Here's a recap of our lives, with those of us living at home profiled
here on the front page; and our daughters who have 'flown the coop'
highlighted in their own links at the left. We send our love and
prayers to each of you who has influenced our lives for the better.
May 2008 hold great treasures for you!

bone infection never returns...
