Thanksgiving 2007

Over Thanksgiving, I was able to see my new Nephew and my now *slightly* older nephew, who is now a happy big brother.

One Big Happy Family!

So someone likes this one better than the feet...

I don't know if Cooper was paying much attention to Peyton at this point, but he was focused on something...

Oooooh, look, a baby. It looks just like a real person! But in all seriousness, I now have two awesome nephews instead of just one.

Who knows, but Cooper loves being upside down?

Bluegrass (Walnut Valley Festival)

Headed on down to Winfield to the (formally titled) Walnut Valley Festival, also known as Winfield Bluegrass or just Bluegrass. Had a great time, also got some good photos and heard some awesome music. Here is just a taste!

John McCutcheon, Tommy Emmanuel and Linda Tilton, although I cannot say much for Linda's sign language(I don't understand signing), John and Tommy did an awesome job at playing together!


Alecia Nugent and Thomas Wywrot
