Oh Boy!
Welcome to the world, Lucas Jackson! Happy Birthday!
We are so delighted with Chris and Sherry's son.
Born 7.2 in the middle of the Hurricane, with a wonderful life ahead.
My great nephew, with a name honoring my brother Lou and the Lou's in the family, etc.
Also honoring the Italian region of our namesake heritage, St. Luke's.
A great blood line of men: My great grandfather Pietro, Grandpa Vincenzo, Dad, Lou, Chris, Lucas Jackson.
Mobile upload at the hospital by Chris with message: "... Thank you everyone. Mom and baby are doing awesome."
The following days: Back at home.
Dad with his great grandson.
Mom with hers.
Great grandpa George.
Playing outside already, at home sweet home.
Lou, how great that you could help Chris is his home renovation project, complete before the arrival.
That and Sherry's decorating talents will make this loving home even nicer!
Mary, thanks for these wonderful pictures.
Congratulations Chris and Sherry!
Great Uncle Pete
