this is my grandparents.                                                       I knew my grandpa before he died we were really close                                           and I still say we're close. I didn't know my grandma.                                          She died before I was born.

this is Jarrod.  Brittany's little brother. 

this picture was taken during Christmas break.               On the left of me is my Aunt Jeannie and on the right is Christina. Me and Christina were close like family back then before my sister and her father       were married. At the time they were dating.

this picture was taken                                                        when Kayla Rose was born. Lorie is in the middle,                                                   she's holding Kayla, and Heather is on Lorie's right.

this picture was also taken                                          during a Christmas break. This is Lorie and Mike                                           before they were married. At the time they were talking                                           about getting married and rambling off some dates                                           when to get married.

this picture was taken                                                          at my mom's wedding. The one with the                                                           glasses on, on the left is Aunt Lynne. The one in the                                        middle is Aunt Jeannie. The one on the right is my mom.                                         I was there at the wedding. Mom married dad in                                            December 1992. That's before I moved to Delphos.

this picture is   Lowell.                                                 Lowell is my brother-in-law. He  married Amy                                                      and is the father of Heather, Kayla, and Mathew.

this picture is of Mike.                                                     This picture was taken when he still lived at home,                                               and also before he and Lorie married. This was                                                       taken before they were even dating.

this picture was taken                                                                      at one of my birthday parties. I think                                                                     this is a better picture of mom. This was                                                             taken before she got really sick.

this picture was taken                                                            at a family gathering. Uncle Steve is on the                                                             left and Aunt Jeanie is on the right. I think                                                            this was a few years back around Thanksgiving.

this picture was taken also                                                        a few years back when Tim was still in town.                                                      This is my brother Tim. The baby carriage was cut                                                   off but that was when Heather was a baby.
