Harrison turns 4

Our oldest, Harrison, turned 4 on May 25th.  He is such a character.  He LOVES Angry Birds.  In fact, he'll wake up early in the morning and take Jason's phone just to play the game.  What better reason to have an Angry Bird themed party?

Kendall & Mom

25 years strong

 Jason's mom, Karen, had the opportunity to celebrate 25 years of being sober.  The family went to support her and see her receive her chip and testify IT IS WORTH IT!

The AA meeting was certainly a moving experience and one we couldn't be more proud of attending.

80 Years Young

Jason's Grandma Kendall turned 80!

She couldn't believe it.  She told her sister, "No way!  I can't be 80!"  Her older sister replied, "How do you think I feel?"

Grandma has dementia, so lives in an assisted living home.  Her whole family surprised her with a birthday party - yes, she was VERY surprised!

Sigma Tau Delta 2013: Portland, Oregon

Jason had the fun opportunity to read a paper he wrote about how movies have turned dark since 9/11 for the National English Society.  This year's location was Portland, Oregon.  He loved every moment and we, as always, are proud to know him!

Powell's Bookstore was an amazing sight!  Set on an entire city block, the amount and genre of literature appeared endless.  A wonderland for English majors!
