Thad, 3/21/09

Allison brought Thad over to Hemlock Home today. Here's a photo of Thad looking into a mirror on one of his play units. I'll post a number of other photos from their visit tomorrow, after we get home. We had a great time.

Our wedding

Debbie and I will be celebrating our first anniversary in a bit more than a week.
Here is a photo from our wedding dinner.

This is one of my favorite photos of Allison. Look at that form!

I think this is my favorite photo of Allison and me, from 1980.

Feeling a little sentimental tonight. Here's a picture of me feeding Allison, when she was about the age Thad is now.

Thad with Mum

Mum with our Thad. The kids, who are so thoughtful, made a trek to western PA so Thad's great-grandparents could meet him.

Thad with Dad

The kids got to travel west so all the great-grandparents could meet Thad for the first time. Here is Dad with Thad. Dad had a nasty spill last week, but he's feeling better now.
