A Few Pictures from Christmas Past



Morans 1971
















Engstroms Christmas 1973

Happy Birthday Pete and Andrew

The official party was canceled due to freezing rain. A makeshift cake, made of mango and lemon sherbet balls and berries holds one candle because Andrew is thirty-one. No candles for Pete who is seventy.

What are you doing for Thanksgiving?


I started this blog for us to share information and pictures of whats going on. We were all together last year at the wedding of Gretchen & Jeff. It's time to congratulate them on their one year anniversary. The picture on the left is from Thanksgiving 2007 at the home of Megan & Josh. It's hard to believe how fast this year has flown by.
