We need to begin with the Manrys, who are proudly announcing the arrival of Tessa Marie! Their website (http://www.manryfamily.com/) hasn't been updated, yet, but it will be, quite soon. At left you can see Mark, our constant chauffeur; lower left, you can see Lori, who kept going and going and going and . . . lower right you can see Buzaaniro Village, the backyard playground for Luke, Connnor, and Lydia Jane.
