35 Photos of Jordan

My store of photos of Jordan is smaller than that of our longer-serving son-in-law whom we honored a couple of weeks ago, but still my Mac Photos library still holds 714 images of Jordan. That's crazy. So I have chosen a fairly random 35 of them to represent him on this his thirty-fifth birthday. 

Jordan this is only your first birthday as an official part of the Shaw/Baird bunch, but we have already learned to love and admire you. We wish for you a whole year of joy, love, and adventure and many many happy returns!

During the holiday season of 2022 Jordan introduced us to his Hanukkah traditions. He and Lillian also made off with several LPs from our record collection. 

Jordan joined Lillian in one of our family traditions -- Christmas Eve participating in the Live Nativity at our church. They stood as Joseph and Mary on December 24, 2022.



One sign that Lil and Jordan are kindred spirits is their joint passion for music.

Sheila and I had a great time introducing Jordan to folk singer/storyteller John McCutcheon at Eddie's Attic in Decatur

A special treat for us was the opportunity to host so many of the Jordan's family for a brunch at our house the day after their wedding. It was great to get to meet the great group of folks who are now part of our daughter's family.

As Uncle Jordan to Lillian's nieces Jordan seems to enjoy his new family just as Aunt Lillian has enthusiastically joined the Friedman's.
