Mark and Paige

Oops! I forgot to mention that miraculously, Great Aunt Patti Dinsmore just happened to be in Oregon in time to meet Alison! What a blessing to have that brief time with Patti, particularly since Casey and Donna were there too! Glad we could include some photos of Patti too!

Interestingly, one of the nurses taking care of Anne and Alison, is an old friend of Paige’s from Corvallis, Linda Vreeland. There are a couple pics of her deftly bundling up Alison.

July 30th, 2007 at 10:47pm The FIRST Dinsmore grandbaby made her very grand entrance to this life at Salem Hospital. Our daughter in law, Anne bravely delivered Allison Elinor (named for Mark’s mom, Pete’s grandmom) Dinsmore at a whopping 10pounds 5and a half ounces and 21inches long. Alison has a headful of lovely dark hair, and apparently hazel colored eyes. She’s a beauty from top to toes and we thank God for her safe delivery. Pete and Anne are very very proud and delighted parents and Mark is bursting with joy over this Dinsmore girl!!!
Check out the pics of Alison’s first day when Uncle Casey and Auntie Donna came to visit for the second time. Great pics of Grampa Mark with his girl too. Dear Anne got left out of most of the pics. She deserves a good rest and lots of special time recovering with her beautiful new daughter.

Also, check out the link to pics of Ms Lucy Green, now 16 months old and very adorable and clever. We sure love her!
We are blessed and very thankful for God’s great kindness to us.

Two new sets of photos are in the photo section on the right.

First a sweet set of photos of Lucy playing with our Bengal cat, Jet.

And second, a bunch of photos of family members meeting Pete and Ann’s new daughter Allison!
