Great Book - I reccomend it....

I just finished The Book Thief and loved it from the first page. It was reccommended to me by my LON friends. Nazi Germany, about a 9 year old girl, as told by the narrator who is 'death'. Has won many book awards, anyone who wants to borrow it, let me know! Mom/Carolyn

We returned from a great vacation to San Diego on Sunday!  One of the highlights was that Amelia was chosen to meet Shamu, to pet him and feed him--lucky dog!  Caroline also got to help with the seal show and was privileged to shake a seal's flipper!!

Jackson's Blessing

Thank you everyone for coming to Jack's blessing on Sunday! John gave him such a beautiful blessing...It was a wonderful day for us. Isn't Jackson a 'mini-me' of John???

Happy Birthday Dad!!

Happy Birthday Dad! I am sure I speak for all my siblings when I say that I feel truly blessed to have you as my dad. I love you very much. Hope you have a wonderful day!

(I thought this picture was so perfect - when you think of Dad, don't you think of what a cute "Papa" he is to his grandkids?!)
