James and Andy (sitting) at their little tea table. We lived on montgomery in Timmins. Andy was only about 2 years old here. Whenever they ate they would sit at their own little table. James and Andy were always together.

This is James and Andy at my Dads house in nighthawk. Raymond was playing
with the boys. Raymond put his hat on Andy and took my dad's hat and put it
on James then put pretend cigarettes in their mouth. Andy was about 3 years
old here.

This picture was taken in the summer of 1991 when we use to take hikes
behind the Timmins District Hospital. We would spend hours searching for
unique rocks, different birds and exploring different trails. This is Andy
throwing rocks into a stream. Sometimes Amanda would come with us.

This picture was when the Maddens went on the sleigh ride when Uncle Kelly and Aunt Sue had come to visit. This is also the first time James and Andy (Dad's arms) sat on a horse.

This is July 1st in Timmins . Crystal, James and Andy on top of Dale's truck watching fireworks. The kids are all wearing a glowing necklaces. I'm not quite sure of the year, but I believe it was 1993.

Andy took on a paper route in Iroquois Falls at the age of 13 so that he could save up to buy his own snow machine. After Andy had delivered newspapers for only a year he had already  managed to buy himself a stunt bike, a mini bike, and his own snowmachine. Andy also made enough money to buy every family member a christmas gift that year. Andy was liked by the people that he served and even though he didn't always like to get up early on a saturday he would because he knew that his enjoyment depended on him delivering the papers.

 Andy's and his classmates taking a class photo for his grade eight graduation.

This picture was taken at the  Cochrane Winter Carnival Febuary 2002. We attended with the kids and some of their cousins. On the top of the car (left) James, Andy (Middle) Shawn Giguere (right), (two girls on hood  are unknown to us, their mother wanted a picture of them on the m&m car) Me (mom)with the helmet and crystal standing beside me. It was always a thrill for us to attend the demolishion derby in Cochrane as we would always get so excited. James and Andy were our biggest fans and always let us know the best hits of the race.

May run weekend of 2002, we went camping up the Abitibi line (behind Iroquois Falls) with David, Anna, Derek, Sue, Henri, and  Mel. This picture was taken around the campfire. It turned out to be a great weekend because we saw a mother bear and two cubs, an eagles nest, a hawk, and we even washed up in the lake. We caught pike, pickeral, and a couple of trout that weekend.

This picture was taken at Iroquois Falls secondary School showing  the clothes that Andy made. He wanted to have a look all his own so he took material and added them to his pants and shirt so he could get the flared look. Andy was 15 years old at the time of this picture.

This picture was taken in July 2004. This is Andy's best friend Johnny Stevens. This is also the dune buggy that Andy and his Dad had rebuilt, and he spent many, many hours on this dune buggy. We lived in Tunis at this time, so there was a lot of room for he and his friends to enjoy their new found toy.
