Six degrees of separation...

Do you remember a few years ago there was a game where just about everyone had a connection to Kevin Bacon? Well, I do not have a connection to Kevin Bacon, other than being able to quote Footloose, however, we could play that game with the Bland Family. Starts out with "Little" Tony. My husband filled in as a youth minister for a little over a year and one of our favorite kids was Tony. He has a special place in my heart, especially because he gave up alot of time to come paint the trim of my house when he could've been hanging out with his high school friends. Lori (the mom) was my daughter's 7th grade reading teacher. "Big" Tony (the dad) taught me to love joint compound and a trowel and if you hang around me very long, I will want to show you my mad texturizing skills! Jennifer works with me but used to work at the daycare Kel went to when I was in nursing school. She is now one of my closest friends. As a couple, Jenn and James are the ones you want to hang with on a Friday night but are a soft place to fall when life beats you up. Confused yet?? Angela, do not feel left out...we just have been able to talk long enough to figure out our connection!! Hope you like your pictures guys...I love your family!










Can you guess who just had a birthday??
