Hero, born 3/1/09. He’s 6 months old in this picture, weighs 72# and is still growing!!!

Holly (Holly3639) wants to make sure she gets a good shot

Kirk shows Ruth his toy. Ruth must really like it. Wonder what Patti’s thinking? Oh….did ya notice the cherry-cherry red tongue? And, in case you’re wondering, the ciggie is a prop – Ruth doesn’t smoke!

Kirk’s leading the line, Sherry’s bringing up the rear.

My favorite city in the world…Pittsburgh, PA. October 2007. The fountain at The Point had pink water in honor of National Breast Cancer Awareness Month.

Neil Diamond concerts and Pittsburgh Steelers football games…where all my money goes!

Patti and Ruth – not sure what they’re doing, but I think a cherry stem is involved!

Renee before the Steelers/Ravens game.

Rise, Toni, and CherylH taking a breather after Tom Sadge’s wonderful show

Sunday evening – the only ones left: Nanci (Braylleann), Waltraut (Can.Anny), Toni (Toni in NC), Tom (TomZ), Glo (taking pic), Cardboard Deb (Pollyanna), Rise (OMG Lady), Kirk (Captain Kirk), Patti (Patti from Boston), and Ruth (Flame). Deb (Pollyanna) couldn’t be at the party in person so she sent her picture on cardboard.

The “Terrible Tree” at the Pittsburgh Courthouse. A rally was held here and the tree decorated with an all-Steelers theme the week of the AFC Championship game between the Steelers and the Ravens (Pittsburgh won).

The game is over…the Pittsburgh Steelers are the AFC Champions. Fireworks were the beginning of a long night of celebrating.

The Wedding Party

This one’s a yummy for the rest of us

This one’s for Flame

Tom and Rise each played a big part in making my Chicago experience soooo great.
