I hosted a party for all of us who used to work at FW Publications, on Writer's Digest Magazine. There's only one lonely staffer remaining, so we decided to get together for what is hopefully now a frequent thing. Our annual "The Staff Formerly Known As WD" party. Thanks to Lisa for the pix, as I was too busy with the girls to remember to take any!

A Not-so-"Nude Descending a Staircase," Kristin and her daughter Dana:


Brian (the remaining WDer) tickling Ella - with wife Brittany in the background (who was pregnant at the time, but now has another beautiful addition to the Klems family - welcome Anna Jo!):


Maria (our #2), deep in conversation with daughter Olivia at her side:


(A blurry) Lisa holding Whitney:


Kara, Andy and Sophie (I'm not sure what Kara's doing here...either gasping that Andy is letting her grab fireplace matches, or eating some of the delicious foods everyone brought!):


The rest of the gang! Left to Right: Maria #2 Schneider, Tom Zeit (not officially of WD, but an ex-FWer), Kristin Godsey, Maria Witte, Robin Hampton.


Mommy and Whitney:
