a couple of old pictures....

Then again not so old.....but from 2002-2003...

This is my parents on their 50th wedding anniversary in 2002 (a not very good scan of a snapshot but just the same....).

This is my Dad and Owen....Owen Joseph, that is. Owen has always loved firetruck so that Christmas my mother send my father out to buy a firetruck for Owen.  He returned with the biggest firetruck they had in the store---it even shoots water out.  Owen loved it so much that he insisted on sleeping with it in his crib. It was almost as big as him.  My father was rather pleased with himself.
