Little Lila in the Bowl

My Mom's parents owned Collier Furniture. In the store there was a crystal punch bowl. I'm not sure why, but my grandparents had the local photographer (Mr. Thorne) take Mom's picture in the punch bowl when she was six months old. When I was six months old, Mom borrowed the bowl from the family who had purchased it, and Mr. Thorne took my picture in it. By the time my oldest daughter, Ann was six months old there was a crack in the bowl and it was a family heirloom so her picture was taken by Mr. Thorne in a different bowl. Now my daughter Marissa's little one, Lila (named after my mother) is six months old and her picture was taken Saturday in a punch bowl. If you look carefully, you can see that all the babies are wearing the same bracelet.

Seattle Trip

 This year Terry and Carter, along with Terry's brother Corey and his son, Jevan took a trip to Seattle Washington to see the Boston Red Sox play. Carter got his first airplane ride, saw the ocean (even took a boat tour of the harbor), the Space Needle, visited the Hard Rock Cafe, AND watched the Red Sox. Carter got his picture taken with 2 of the players that they happened to see outside the ballpark. It was a GREAT trip!
