This is a first.

My first blog post.  Sure why not.  I would kinda like to blog about my 10 year anniversary.  It wasn't what I had in mind.  My plan was to always do a traditional gift theme.  This year was Tin, so here was the plan...Step one, Rib gets the day off work.  Step two, we eat delicious food.  Step three, we make a tin craft by making luminaries out of soup cans.  Step four, Go see The adventures of Tin-Tin in theaters.  Gladly but sadly my baby belly and exhaustion got in the way, so instead we had overpriced food and still a fun evening at the museum of natural history.  Next year the traditional gift is steel, what to do?

Jack's 83rd Birthday!!!!

I felt that this was a very sweet and special birthday. After cake and gifts, Ron Bagley had everyone go around the room and tell what they love about Gramps or a favorite memory. Many funny and sweet stories were shared, but I think everyone got a bit teary eyed when Rusty told everyone how thankful he was for the love that he's felt in our family. I know I was touched. That right there shows us that when Jack built his house with love, it has been, and will be felt by many generations to come.
