Just finished copying family photos

In preperation for the reunion, we asked family members to send us photos. We have only got one so far, but we have received lots of older photos to scan from Ginny and Gail (thanks so much ladies). This will make for a really fun Saturday Evening Program. It makes us all thankful for the photo reminders of back in the day. So remember to send us a photo of your immediate family today. If you have any old Davenport family photos, give us a call. See you all in 62 days!
