Happy Birthday Johnno

It's 7:45 am, August 30th, 2010. Thirty Years ago today I woke Mark up at around 6:30 am and said "I don't think we're going fishing today honey" ....13 hours later, John Brian Reuschle arrived and we became a family. 7 lbs, 3 oz. and 21 3/4 inches...

Happy Birthday Captain John!

Easter, in the Olden Days

Me and my sisters, Diana (looking very serious...) and Andrea. Massapequa, around 1968.
Me, and my brothers...Charlie, Jimmy and Gary...and some barnyard animals...awwwww, I loved that lamb!
Me, Kansas City Mo. My Mom made all of my dresses then...in fact, she made entire outfits for us...matching outfits, including coats. I have a sewing machine.......
Aahhhh, chicks. Kansas City, Mo. Me, Gary, Jimmy and Charlie. 1958
Me again....So? Looks like we went to the Beach on Easter Sunday!...Must be Robert Moses, we lived right down the road from the parkway then.
My cousin Laurie and I, Maspeth, NY. Somewhere around 1956?

My beautiful Mom, trying to make my stick straight hair curl...it was the in thing. :)

Family

Aunt Rosie, Aunt Allene and Uncle George

Aunt Jean

My Grandma, (Mom's Mom) and Aunt Jean
Cousins! Jimmy, Laurie and Peter (with some alarmingly big feet)
Aunt Allene....how cute was she?????

I'm getting much better at this scanning thing.

Early Days

My coworker and facebook friend was inspired, by all of our recent wedding talk, to post her wedding photo from, shall we say, a few years ago. That, in turn, inspired me to post MY wedding photo from even more years ago :-)

Thanks for the inspiration MB!
