Mom's 97th Birthday

This past Friday my mother celebrated her 97th birthday and Becky and I were honored to be a part of that great celebration for a loving and gracious lady.  We drove up to Charlottesville, VA on January 3rd and celebrated her birthday on January 4th with my brother and sister-in-law, Paul and Linda, as well as Ken and Brenda Grant, some very close family friends, at the Ivy Inn Restaurant.  I am enclosing some pictures that I took with my new camera and as you can tell, I am still getting use to it.
