2005

My parents and brother, Mike, were in FL to celebrate Christmas with us this year. We had a fajita bar-b-q with the Viebeys, Lunas and Murrays a couple of days prior to Christmas.

All four kids gathered in San Antonio to surprise Dad for his 70th birthday. Theresa and her family came down from Tyler, Mike from Dallas, and I from Orlando. Dad was VERY surprised to see all of us. There was also some Christmas gift exchanging going on since we were all together.

Visits with Hannah and Emmy, plus Thanksgiving 2005 and Bob's Birthday in GA

Christine got books, checks and a new copy of PhotoShop for her birthday. We went to Amigo's for dinner, and afterwards had pumpkin pie (her choice)

Patrick got a new wetsuit and checks for his birthday, and we had a great dinner together at a new restaurant close by the house. Patrick chose carrot cake at home to celebrate.

We celebrated our 25th Wedding Anniversary with a gathering of family and friends in Savannah, GA where we first met during the summer of 1977.

Pat and Alice, Walt and Alison plus kids were over for a bbq at our house to celebrate Lydia's Birthday.

This is THE WB-50 which my dad flew in the early 1960s doing weather and nuclear weapons tests reconnaissance. Given my dad's association with this plane, the museum granted us special access before hours so we were able to see into the cockpit.

There are also pictures of a C-7A Caribou which my dad flew during his tour of duty in Vietnam 1968-1969.
