He didn't miss a Christmas family portrait as soon as Carleigh was old enough to stand on her own!
Photos from Christmas, 2001 - 2010

He was our practice baby! He was Don's birthday present in November of 1999. He was 8 weeks old and I was 6 months pregnant....
In his younger years, he was quite the athlete! He LOVED playing catch, was the first of our family on the new swing set when we got it, and one of his favorite tricks was jumping through the hula hoop for treats!
He was Don's "boy." He went hiking, watched football on Sundays with him and just hung out wherever Don was!
He loved playing with the girls and was definitely a "big brother" to them. He let them do whatever they wanted from dress up to wagon rides, to pony rides...
Jack could sit for hours and just watch the world go by...he loved his people, but he also loved to just watch...
Anyone who met Jack knew he was a little man! He had many favorite people! He LOVED Rosie and Chrissy - they would spend lots of time loving him when they visited! He and Nana and Bubba would take long walks when they were here from PA. His first doggy friends were Stroker and Bailey, my sister Patty's dogs. Patty always knew how to treat Jacko! She never hesitated to get down and love him as much as her own dogs! He also spent many days and nights with Rocky and Rina - their house was his second house. He and Rocky has lots of alone time also as Rina traveled with us to Disney or the Bahamas. He always thought whoever was here, was here to see him. And often, that was the case...at least for the first few minutes.
We love you Jack Rahn and will miss you!
