Happy new year - and decade

Webmaster Dan says: I hope everyone on our family web has had a good holiday season, and wish you all a great 2010.

The past year saw big changes like Genevieve and John's wedding; Marie, Brian and Xander's move to New Jersey; and Doug and Lisa's move to Nevada. Becky graduated from high school and started at RIT; in California, Dan was awarded his associates' degree with top honors and continued his studies at San Jose State; Shanna began studying for her masters. Ted made a cross-country trek and Christine performed with her high school marching band at Disney World. Those are just a few of the highlights captured here on Birch Street Web.

There was sadness too, as we lost a dear family member, Anamarie, a little more than a year after the passing of her brother, Austin. May they both rest in peace.

Whatever's ahead in 2010, I hope you'll continue using the Birch Street Web as a way to keep in touch with other members of our extended family. Visit often - send in your news, photos, links and anything else you'd like to share - add your comments to our posts - and enjoy!
