Summer country has a new griffin! India Aileen Griffin was born October 14th in LA. We went out to meet her the second weekend in November. Aidan is involved in preschool and Tim and Alicia having just sold one home are buzy with another Griffin Development project. Tim will be filming in Paris the first week in January.They are great parents! and we enjoy visiting them in their beautiful home. This weekend Andy and Catherine will be coming in to Chicago for a radiology convention that Andy will be attending. Catherine is doing an M.A.T. (on top of her masters in sociology from U of C) at the University which she was awarded right as she left the Tribune last summer before they moved to St. Louis where Andy will be doing his residency for the next four years. We are hoping to visit them in their new home in early January when Andrew's
coverage scheduale lightens up!
Andrew and I will be leaving for the Galapagos on December 19th with friends who we sailed in Turkey with two summers ago and will be back in time for New Years at the Dunes. We hope to get down to our new home in Albuquerque early in the New Year (http://www.griffinfarm.com/casagriffin.html) Andrew is still involved with the family farm in Dalhart Texas, which is five hours from our new home in the foothills (Sandia Heights ) we plan to ultimately retire there . We were down the last week in September visiting friends and finishing furnishing our home and I recently went down for a week during the balloon fest to set up my office there, so I can retreat there for R & R! from our hectic social life here in Chicago (benefits, opera, theatre, symphony, art openings, parties!)whenever there are cheap flights!

Andrew has taken a new position as Chief of Pediatric Cardiology at Loyola University
Medical Center. I am still involved with all things tech and is happily involved in
finally bringing the Kiddygram to life on line as a graphically attractive Kiddiegram!
