Below are some stories from 2005:

We spent Memorial Day weekend in Nantucket and took Owen to Children's Beach where he enjoyed sand and swings.  Click here to see.

Here is a great picture of Tom's maternal grandfather, Woody Weimar, at a very young age.  He is shown here with his sister Anna.

Owen seemed to like his first time out in the snow (at least for the first couple of minutes).  Click here for some pictures of Owen slip sliding around in his new sled.

Owen had a lot of fun riding the carousel horse at Grandma's house in Pittsburgh.  Click here for more pictures of Owen's visit to his Grandparents' homes in Pittsburgh.

Our next door neighbor threw quite a surprise birthday bash for his wife, Mary Pat Sullivan.  John rallied his band to provide live entertainment for the party, which was held in a Soho loft.  John encouraged audience participation. 

Here is a picture of our other next door neighbor, Kathy Jessop belting out the tunes with Liz while John jams the bass.  Click here for more pictures.  Click here to see some video clips of some live performances.

Here is a slideshow containing pictures of Owen's February 2005 photo shoot.

Here is a slideshow with a few pictures from our January 2005 trip to Pittsburgh for the Steelers Jets AFC Playoff game. 

It was an amazing victory against the Jets.  In a tense overtime thriller, the Steelers proceeded to the AFC championship game after Jets kicker Doug Brian's two missed field goals.

There was a lone Steelers flag hanging from the McGinley's house on Adams Street in Garden City, NY.  January 15, the Steelers won to the Jets in Pittsburgh getting them one step closer to Super Bowl XXXIX.

It is with great sadness that we announce the passing of Tom's great aunt- Margaret Rooney Laughlin.  Aunt Marg was a very special person within the extended Rooney-Laughlin-McGinley family. 

Here is a picture of Tom's Aunt Margaret (left) and grandmother (right).  The two were best of friends.  Both are dearly missed. 

Santa found his way to the McGinley house on Christmas Day.  Owen seemed a little bit suspicious of the man in the red suit.

One of the primary furnishings within the McGinley home is an oil painting of the famous Steel Curtain of the 1970's.  The mural was painted by a Pittsburgh artist named Ron Donoughe.  Ron is a good friend of Tom's step-father, Paul.

Last October- we surprised Liz's mother, Mary Ann with a birthday party at our new house.  Friends came from as far north as Nantucket and as far south as Florida to attend.  A good time was enjoyed by all.

Moving into a new neighborhood is a little bit like a box of chocolates.  You never know what your going to get.  Fortunately, everyone we've met in the new neighborhood seems very nice. 

One particular neighbor is a little bit of a local celebrity.  Here is a picture of our next door neighbor, John Sullivan,  jamming out with the legendary Roger Daltrey of The Who.

John's wife, Mary Pat was kind enough to send him to Rock & Roll Fantasy Camp  as a special birthday gift.  Newsday did a story on John and his experience at the camp that made him famous.  Click here to read the story
