WELCOME BABY ADA!

8lbs., 5 oz. 9/18/08 Congratulations, April and Steve!

Peter, Georgia and Ada at Thanksgiving, 2008.

Mom loved meeting her sweet, mellow 6th great-granddaughter!

Peter had his first Madison Boychoir concert on Saturday, Dec. 13th!

Fall on the Farm!

Katherine and Nate headed off to swing dance, August 2008

If Eddie Munster were a red head:

Mary Alice and Peter swim in the clear waters of Squam Lake!

Joseph and Grandma Georgia shucking fresh corn for dinner

Joseph went with Zach Prior to look at colleges in Iowa August 4-5. Here they are with Charlie Kohawk and tour guides at the Victory Bell on the Coe College campus in Cedar Rapids, and below on the University of Iowa campus. The photos are in sepia because somebody (ahem) changed the settings in my camera, but I actually think they look interesting that way. We also went to Drake and Grinnell, but it was too hot to breathe that day, much less take pictures.

Peter (in yellow on the left) visited the Wisconsin State Senate with his Camp

Happy 17th Birthday, Joseph!

(Can you tell we had BBQ ribs?)

Turtle Cake from Culvers and a BIG candle!

Peter riding in the Vilas Neighborhood 4th of July Parade!

Peter loved all the cats on Aunt Brooke and Uncle Skip's farm!

All five of Tom and Patty's grandchildren online at the same time.

How many of us does it take to solve an end of the week NYT crossword puzzle?

Best photo I've received in ages! Sabina at sunset :-)

During the summer of 2007, we went to two family gatherings,
the likes of which we haven't seen in years because almost
everyone in the Spurgeon and Woods families were present.

Here are ALL the Spurgeons descended from Georgia and Allen, including partners, except Pam, Kim, Doug, and Megan. Pam and Kim were ill, and Doug had just broken his foot. Megan must have already left to go back to work by the time we took pictures. From left to right, we have Kim, Michelle, April, Iris, Steve, Anne, Gary, Jennie, Joseph, Mary Alice, Leah, Tim, Hannah, Sabina, Stan, Thea, Isabela, Peter, Jeff, Georgia, Nate, Leslie, Eric, Chris, David, Andy, Brendan, and Heide.

Here are all the Woodses descended from Tom and Patty (really it's all those descended from Tom, Lucy, Charles and Dorothy!), including partners, except Anne and Nate. Anne had to work (and joined us later) and Nate was in Scotland. From left to right, we have Joseph, David, Fiona, Peter, Patty, Tom, Gwen, Skip, Brooke, and Larry.

Congratulations Nate!!
