Our family photos.

You should know what we love to do most. Sleep. Well, in my dreams.

Benjamin and Janet at Lake Accotink, Springfield, Virginia.

We're sister and brother and we love each other.

The Peace Bell in Newport, KY. We are in favor of peace.

Ocean City, NJ, in fall 2003 (a secret - the Jersey Shore is like heaven, except with traffic, but if you go in the fall it's only heaven). If you need convincing of the wonderment of this place, spend a few minutes here.

At Franklin Park Conservatory for the Chihuly glass-among-plants installation, with Aunt Rose and Uncle Jeff.

Busy busy busy.

Conferring with the big guy about the important stuff, Christmas 2003.

Why he's not allowed to date until he's, oh, thirty.

With Dayna and Grant, April 2004.

Easter 2004, or for those unimpressed with the churchly fashions:

With our Racine cousins (okay, second cousins) Sammy, Adam and Emily, during Matt and Michelle's wedding weekend, April 2004

Just can't get enough cute pictures of kids not sleeping in their beds. Pay no attention to the licensed products. Admire the colorful decor and the brave early effort at doing Janelle's hair.

We attempt a nice family photo on an indoor croquet lawn.

The annual St. Joe's school picnic; Benjamin hangs with his best dawg Aadarsh. Janelle tags along.

Four images of the great fun on Ocean City, October 2004.

Mama catches up on reading.

Halloween 2004; rather, the Thursday previous, when Columbus urchins are allowed to go scavenging for sugar. My butterfly and my caterpillar brought back approximately their combined weight in candy.

So many outfits, so few Halloweens.

These beautiful children..

Janelle gets her hair done. Not by me.

A couple from Christmas 2004. Look what we let Aunt Susy get for B. Well, look at him - how could we deny this passion for the sake of our ears?
