Here's Andrew holding Kylie in a swing at Bill and Susan's house in Morris, Illinois probably about 16 years ago - give or take a few days.
Thursday, January 9, 2014 - Yesterday was Kylie's birthday.  I wanted to put some pictures in here so we don't forget that she was born on Elvis Presley's birthday.  That's cute.  Okay, it just started snowing again.  Will it EVER stop????  yikes.  Happy Boofday, Kylie.  djb

This is the tree cake that Denny and Avis had at their house for our Berg Kids' Christmas party - can't remember the year right now.
Tuesday, December 31, 2013 - When I saw the picture of this cake, I had to put it in here.  It's so cool.  The only hard part was trying to cut it.  Ho, ho, ho.  Happy New Year!!! djb

When I got up the morning of November 29, 2013, I saw this in the eastern sky.
Wednesday, December 11, 2013 - Whenever I see a sliver of the moon, I always say, "there's God's fingernail."  No really, I do.  This was the first awesome thing I saw that morning. ~djb

This is a full moon setting in the west from a couple of years ago.  We can't see the moon this morning because of the pending storm.
Sunday, November 17, 2013 -- 10:16 a.m. EST —Full Beaver Moon: At this point of the year, it's time to set beaver traps before the swamps freeze to ensure a supply of warm winter furs. Another interpretation suggests that the name Beaver Full Moon came from the fact that the beavers are now active in their preparation for winter. It's also called the Frosty Moon. www.space.com

Sgt. Gale B. Berg - WWII
Monday, November 11, 2013 - A lot of the photos from the olden days are not real clear but you can still see how perfect my dad's posture was back in the day.  He ALWAYS stood up straight.  Mother told me that was one of the things that she first noticed about him.  He had a commanding presence.  God bless him, djb

Wednesday, October 30, 2013 - Krissy put this together for Andrew and Jarrett's visitation on March 7, 2003.  Interestingly enough, Mother and Diane chose this same poem for Daddy's bookmark memorial card from All Faith's Cemetery.  Coincidence or ..... ? ~djb

Here's Bob with Andrew and Jarrett in Minnesota.  If you look in the reflection in the window, you can see me waving, "Happy Birthday to Bob!"
Sunday, October 6, 2013 - HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO BOB!!!  I really love this picture because the boys were older and we're all in it...which I didn't realize until after I got the photos back. Nowadays, I'd take 20 pictures on a digital camera.  But maybe that's why these older photos are so precious because they're so rare.  Happy Boofday to Bob.  see ya later, djb
