It was one year ago when I was up in Dayton for Brian & Claire’s wedding rehearsal, and immediately following I received a call from my wife. She was feeling ‘funny’ — which meant she was about to go into labor! I rushed back home, met my in-laws who had moments earlier arrived from Kansas for just this type of occasion, then got Annette to the hospital.
Ridge Joseph Tate then entered the world at 3:09 AM on 7-7-07! After a few brief hours of sleep, I headed back up to Dayton to shoot Brian & Claire’s wedding! My wife and I, and our third son, will forever be connected to the Troyers because of this incredible day!
I actually began this 28Twenty blog shortly thereafter. My second post was the announcement of Ridge’s birth, and you can re-live those moments by going here.
So HAPPY BIRTHDAY, Ridge, and HAPPY ANNIVERSARY, Uncle Brian & Aunt Claire! ;)
And in honor of my youngest’s first birthday, here are some recent photos of our one-year old!
