My Family

I think I've got a pretty normal family.  Mom (Kris), Dad (Peter), older sister Beth, and younger brother Patrick.  Yes I am the middle child, hehehe...  My folks have been married nearly 35 years (Way to go Mom and Dad!) and I swear I'm going to do something special for their anniversary next year.  We (well, I guess Mom and Dad still live) outside Madison, Wisconsin.  Most of our extended family is still in Wisconsin, mostly in Madison, so we see them quite a bit.  I do have some extended family spread out though.  We've got family in Seattle, San Rafael (ouside San Fransico), and Mission Viejo (south of Los Angeles).

This is the most recent photo with all my family members.  Graduation day for me, May 2001.  From the back, l-->r: Grandpa, Dad, Patrick, and in front, Grandma, Mom, me, and Beth.

The next most recent photo, Christmas 1998.

My aunt Linda (my Dad's sister) and I at my going-away dinner (late January 2002).  My Grandpa is the best cook!

Me, Mom, and Beth at the same going-away dinner.

My grandparents-Aren't they the cutest!  Christmas 2001.

My Mom's side of the family.  Her folks have passed away, but the sisters get together quite a bit.  From the back, l-->r: Martha, Anne, my Mom, and in the front, Susan, and Karin.  Yes, they are a multi-racial family.  All 8 kids in the family were adopted.  Grandma and Grandpa Meyer were pioneers.

Pictures after one of the frequent Meyer lunches (this one was as a last visit before I came to New Zealand, Jan. 2002).  In the front, l-->r: Martha, me, Karin, Rudi (Karin's daughter), and in the back, Bruce (Karin's husband).

So I went home in June/July 2003 for my cousin Brian's wedding, check out the photos here.  In December 2003 some of my family came to visit me in New Zealand.  Check out the photos.
