Picture Day!

Today, almost all the family gathered at Horizon House to take some pictures celebrating Granno's 80th birthday this year.

All of Granno's grandchildren recreated the photo we had taken for her at Christmas in 2000.

Here's the original from eight years ago:


And here we are today, with two great grandchildren:

Top row: Adam Boyd
2nd row: Stephanie Taylor, John Kirkpatrick, Granno, Katie (Kirkpatrick) Rohs, Alison Cornwall
3rd row: Hank Rohs, Lily Rohs
Bottom row: Eric Boyd, Katherine Taylor, Reid Cornwall


And of course, the lady of honor (doesn't she look absolutely beautiful?):


John Ryan & I also got to spend a few minutes in Granno's new condo at Horizon House, for the first time today. What a fantastic place! I could immediately feel how comfortable Granno was there, and it made me happy to know that she was in a place she felt happy. She has a lovely view of downtown, with a peek of water & mountains too.

It was a lovely day.

Anno, you look GREAT! Very happy to see that you're doing so well. The updated photo of you and your grand/great grand children was a wonderful idea. It was fun for us to see your offspring so grown up.

Being able to enjoy their love is the best medicine in the world for you!

Love, Paul and Donna
