Kathy, Hannah, Kathy's parents, and I went to Destin Florida for a wedding/vacation. Dr. Ed Hines daughter Melissa was getting married on the beach. Kathy used to babysit Melissa and worked for Ed and so she really wanted to go. We all had a great time. Hannah really enjoyed the pool at the condo we rented. I have posted a few pictures in the photogallery. Enjoy.

I hope you had a very merry Christmas. We certainly did. Hannah really wanted a purple bike and pink cowgirl boots. She got both and was very excited. We spent the morning at our house and then went to Mary and John's (Mamma and Pappa K) for Christmas dinner and to let the girls exchange gifts. My mother and stepfather came to our house then went with us to the Kledziks. We all had a great time. I have posted pictures taken Christmas day and the days leading up to it.

Happy Thanksgiving. We had a nice day with the family and Mama and Papa K's house. Mark, Nadya, Alla, and Nika were all able to join us. My mother was also able to attend. We had a wonderful meal and good time visiting. Ask Mama K about the green bean casserole. Hannah and Nika had a good time playing. They have both been sick so we were trying to keep them from running and jumping too much. I am so thankful we have a family that can get together and celebrate this day. The Lord has so blessed my life with a wonderful wife and daughter. I hope those that read this are also blessed by the Lord and be safe this holiday season.

Again, it has been a long time since I have posted any updates. There are several new albums in the photo galleryto view. Please have a look. Hannah recently had her first camping trip. We went to Land Between the Lakes in KY to meet up with a group of fellow Jeep Liberty owners from the Chicago area. We camped in the Wrangler campground. We discovered that it is named that for a very good reason. It is where all of th horse owners camp with thier horses. Hannah was able to pet, feed and even ride a coupleof horses. All in all we had a great time. We did have an unwanted visitor our second night in camp. A nearly solid white skunk showed up about 4 feet from our tent at 2 in the morning trying to get into our cooler. We didn't sleep quite as well after that (Hannah never woke up and didn't know the difference). She was not very happy when she realized we were going to be going home. She really enjoyed the trip and I think will love going camping. I hope we can get her out again soon.

The site should be fully functional now. We will keep updating with more pictures.

After some work and a few changes to some scripts that were being used. I have the Photo Gallery and News pages working again. We have been unable to publish new pictures for a while. Unfortunately, I had to delete the entire previous picture gallery. I will be showing Kathy how to post pictures so that she can post and organize them. Hopefully things will run smoother now.
