Erik and Ellie led the now famous Jeopardy Contest between Team Nebraska,
Team Minnesota, and Team Connecticut.  With the memorable categories described in previous posting, there are two that are cleaver enough to repeat over and over again -- "Baby Ruth" and When Kenny was Ruthless"

Baker Babies

Steve and Ruthann Baker celebrate the births of their first two grandchildren:
•  Isabel Eve Soule, on November 19, 2011 (to Chelsea Todnem Baker Soule and her husband, Thomas Malcolm Soule)

Isabel attending a wedding in May, 2012

•  Mikayla Shannon Baker, on March 13, 2012 (to Nicholas Martin Baker and his wife, Shannon Christine Lelek Baker)


Both are healthy and happy residents of North Kingstown, with ready smiles for anyone they encounter.  The girls are also growing up together, not only at daycare, but also visiting grandparents' and each other's homes often.  
-- Twin cousins?  We are very blessed, indeed.

We all got together to celebrate Ruth and Ken Wilson's 60th at Madonna Towers in Rochester.

The cupcake cake was a treat. So much frosting!

Eric Weiberg and Ellie Wilson hosted a special Ken and Ruth edition of Jeopardy that was . . . educational, and very fun. Answer categories included, "Wilson Family Goes Nuclear," "When Kenny Was Ruthless," "Baby Ruth" and "Around the World in 60 Years."

Paul Wilson took this excellent family photo.
