This is my dad’s father, Harry.  I’m not sure who the other man is…possibly his father? I think my grandfather looks a lot like my older brother, Jason.

Sorry about the glare of the lamps in the background!  Bad photography on my part!

These are my mom’s parents.  Ralph and Anne Hansen.  Don’t you just love their outfits and hair dos? Ralph was from Norway and Anne was from Russia.  Correct me if I’m wrong, mom, but I think they were the first of their families born in America.  There’s a lot of cool family history- mom- you should start a blog and just blog about all the stories you’ve dug up with cousin Lorraine!  Grandma Anne died before I was born and I never really got to know Ralph- as my only memories of him, he was senile.  I’m so happy my kids have relationships with both sets of their grandparents!  They are soooo lucky.

I just noticed while posting this that Bailey has the same shaped face as her great grandmother!!

This is Lesley and I when we were babies.  We’ve been best friends forever! Amazing to still have someone as your best friend who you played with, potty trained with, learned to swim with, grew up with.  Lesley’s more than a friend, she’s the sister I never had.  I love you, Les!

This is Lesley and I now…we look a little mellow, but I swear that was my first drink! This was at the Hard Rock hotel and casino in Hollywood, Fl.

Sorry about the reflection of the camera and the fireplace!  Bad photography on my part.

My big brother Jason holding my baby brother, Tim.  Jason was 16. Check out the photo 8 years before, of Jason holding me here.

This is my mom with my grandmother, Anne.  My middle name, as well as Bailey’s middle name, is Anne, after her.  She died right before my parents’ wedding, so I never got a chance to meet her. Now, my mom is only about 5’3″.  Grandma Anne is SO tiny!  How cute is that?

This is my Dad, Darryl, with his dad, Harry. I don’t know much about Harry, as he died before I was born, and my dad has never really talked about him. I wish I knew more about him…he looks so joyful in this picture…so proud to be a dad!

This is my mom and my Uncle Roy.  I love my mom’s expression.  I’d be frightened of that Santa too!
