<p>1) Staff who have recently received Masters, Doctorates, etc.</p>
<p>2) Recent babies &#8211; born since the slide show from last August.  We take photos from Moms, Dads, and grandparents too!!   Bring on the baby pictures!!     Didn’t have a baby in the last year… how about a puppy or a kitty?  Oh yah, we take it all.  All we need is:  Baby’s first name only, your name and what building you work at. This is a sample of what is made with the baby photos.</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p>3) Weddings, significant anniversaries.</p>
<p>4) Recognitions, achievements, other significant activities from the summer, we even take vacation pictures and pictures of that big walleye you caught this summer!</p>
