Dear Gemma Lou fans.  Casey and I are sincerely sorry for the lull in blogging.  We're going to make a concerted effort to stay on top of things now.  As most of you know, we are living in a rural are and it takes a long time to upload pictures, hence the slack-off.  Anyhow, Gemma is almost 17 months old.  She is darling and smart and likes to wear a sock on her right hand.  More on that later.  I know we missed some important events, so I'll try to post some older photos soon.  We love you all!
