The Alabama Dental Association once again held its annual conference in Orange Beach, Alabama, and Mark once again asked us to join him and Jenny and the kids for the trip. Mark, who is an orthodontist and a member of the ALDA, attended meetings and renewed old acquaintances while the rest of us enjoyed the area's recreational offerings. But Mark did find time for this family picture taken near the water fountain in front of the Caribe Resort. If you visit the June 17 offering from last year in the archive, you'll see another picture of the resort and you can check out how much Jackson (almost 5) and John Michael (2) have grown in one year.
