Anna Walks

Anna has finally learned to walk! As we sat eating our dinner tonight Anna stood herself up and started walking around the family room. We ran for the camera thinking that this might be only a few short steps and it turned into 20 minutes of entertainment!! Enjoy watching Anna's big accomplishment!

Anna's Birthday Party - Success

Today we had Anna's first birthday party and it was a lot of fun. Anna really enjoyed all of her family and friends. She really, really loves all of her gifts.

Thank you everyone for coming and sharing this wonderful day with us.

Vegas Baby!

Tony and I went with Amy's family to Vegas to celebrate her Aunt's birthday. We had a lot of fun and it was nice to get away for a while. Athough.... five days was plenty of time in Vegas and we missed Anna terribly! She was lucky to stay with Nana and Papa at her own house though!

Anna's First Birthday

Well.... Anna is 1 today. She is growing up so fast and what a smile.

Aquarium

We went to the Aquarium with Nana and Papa. Anna loved seeing the fishies swim around. Time for a family picture!

Organizing... I think!?

Anna seems to think that things need to be organized. She's definitely my daughter!



Smile!

Dad's Big Award!

My Dad was nominated and awarded the Ethics in Business award! It was such an honor to be chosen for this award and we are all sooo proud of him. I know that Great-Grandpa Joe was grinning from heaven as he walked up on that stage!



This was read on the House Floor in Washington and will go into the Library of Congress.



Here is Dad receiving the award and about to shake Ed Green's hand.
