My Big Sister Turns 50!

Jan and Charlie met at the 1984 Olympics in Los Angeles. Charlie's Mom, Margie McIver was riding for the Australian dressage team and Jan was a groom for a rider on the Canadian 3-day eventing team. Charlie hitched a ride to Canada on a cargo plane with the horses, and then about four months later they left for Australia...again on a cargo plane carrying horses.
They married and raised two great kids, Katie and Charles. They have a good life, full of family, friends, and animals; and lots of laughs.

Here is Jan at three years of age. I love our Mom in this picture!!! She was stylish with that hat and the horned rimmed glasses. That's me in her arms...my big birthday is right around the corner!
