Norb and De celebrate their 50th

Norb and De were in Tampa to celebrate their 50th Anniversary with their children and their families.  All 16 of them gathered at the atrium in the Intercontinental Hotel in Tampa before their dinner at Shula”s.  The light was perfect and the waterfall as a background gave a lovely addition to their family portraits.  Look closely at De, she is wearing a gold heart necklace that Norb gave her on her 17th birthday!  What a lucky lady!  I have had a lot of anniversays lately; so glad to be part of such happy times.  Let’s see if I can remember all their names:

Norb, De, Tom, Lynn, Tom (he was in the senior portrait post from several weeks ago, see if you can find him), Kristen, Katherine, Timmy, Sawyer, Laurie, Richard, Cassidy, Cindy, Jaybird, Vito, Roma, ….hmmmm who am I missing?

I loved all the family images, but I think my favorite is Norb with all his grandaughters cuddled into him.

Super Dad – the Younger…

As you can see by these pics, I have a real live Super Dad for a step-son!  But he IS the “younger” version of my husband.  Somewhere along the way, long before I met my husband, he started saying,  “They don’t call me Super Dad for nothing!”   Yes, my husband does actually have a resemblance to Superman.   So, since my step-son is named Miles (the younger) and not junior and my husband is Miles (the original?), we now must call Miles, the younger, Super Dad – the Younger!  Anyway, we took these several weeks ago in order to give some to my husband for Father’s Day as a surprise.  We chose the more classic ones in white for my husband to match the gallery of  family images that he now has, but I made sure that we got the Super Dad images of Miles and his daughter, Alexa as a special keepsake for them.  Hope everyone had a very special Father’s Day.  And an especially wonderful wish for everyone that is celebrating a First Father’s Day this time around!
