Fun Holiday Season

Amanda enjoyed a birthday party with many of her friends.


Although their uncle won't admit it, he has fun playing with the girls.


Beth, Mom, and Amanda sledding at Mueller State Park. This time it was me, rather than Dale, who was unsuccessful at taking mom out--permanently. Perhaps if we had worked together...


The EXTREMELY warm and cozy party cabin that Mom and Dad rented.

Portrait of Cruelty

Janel always pretends she is sad when she is in a picture with me. That is her attempt to mask the physical abuse that I endure at her hand each day of my life.
