This year we will mark my grandma Rose’s 90th birthday with all of the Chicago Caseys in Lake Geneva, Wisconsin. Sara, Bannack, my parents and I flew all day to be greeted poolside by a contingent of cousins, aunts and uncles. In the photos are Gram, my cousin Kevan, her daughter Claire and uncle Bill Gockman and of course my favorite aunt of all time: Colleen.
From Kitsune Noir:
Has a puppet show ever made you cry? If your answer is no then this video might just change that fact. The song is taken from Josh’s newest album So Runs The World Away called The Curse, one of my absolute favorites in fact.
Honestly I got pretty misty eyed watching this video. It’s a combination of Josh Ritter’s amazing vocals and the strangely emotional puppets. It should also be noted that the video was directed by Liam Hurley, who is the bands drummer.
My famous nephew Bannack is named after Bannack a ghost town and the formal capital of [territorial] Montana. His close family (two great grandmas) and friends gathered in Bannack (the town) to welcome him into the world.
Thanks for taking such great photos Mom.
I have taken a thousand photos of Bannack but don’t have many of him and I together. Jesse P. sent me some photos she took last weekend at Becca and Ben’s wedding and I liked this one in particular.
Just because you’re in a weak band called The All-Nighters doesn’t mean you can’t tear it up. Cheers to you cover band drummer!
