Ryann has been hard at work doing some novel writing. We've spun up a new website where you can follow her authorly pursuits. Check out ryannmurphy.com.
Another year, another great performance by the Palatine Area Community Marching Band (PACMB).
A great video is available on YouTube.
We even won 1st place in the music category for the parade! And, a generous donor has provided funds so we can buy new drums for our next performance! Yay!!
I had the privilege of participating in Soursapalooza, part of the Make Music Chicago Music Festival.
There's a picture of the event here. If you look carefully, you can see me in a green striped shirt in the back.
There's also a few videos of the performance. Yours truly is front and center on this first one.
Merry Christmas to all!

Yes, it's been a long time since an update to uden.org, so here are a couple. We had a great spring trip to the southeast part of the US, specifically Savannah and Charleston. If you are on Facebook, Ryann has posted some great pictures here.
We also celebrated the wedding of Ryann's brother in Minnesota. We even helped put up a tent and did a little shooting. A few pictures are posted, with more coming later.
In our ongoing quest to upgrade our house, we are having our dining room remodeled. Ryann has documented the progression on her Facebook page. The pictures are publicly viewable (you don't need a Facebook account). They are posted here.
Merry Christmas and Happy New Year!
