Gatlinburg 2005
My parents celebrated their 50th anniversary on July 23, 2005. To honor the occasion, my two brothers and I, along with our families, rented a big chalet outside Gatlinburg, Tenn. And there we hung out for a whole week. All of us were there--the three brothers, three sisters-in-law, six grandchildren, two girlfriends, one boyfriend, and one just plain friend. Plus Mom and Dad, of course. That's all of us in the picture above.

On the way down, most of us stayed at a Holiday Inn in Lexington, Ky. They had a big arcade area. Here's Rick and Cameron. |

Benjamin loved doing puzzles. Actually, we all did. The chalet featured a huge, very long wooden table. That's where we did the puzzles. |
