 Welcome to our family website

 This is how we keep-up with far-flung family and friends thru news and photos.

The latest update: 

The Yolton family is blessed: happy, healthy, making mistakes, learning, growing, thriving...  all the normal ups-and-downs, but thankful that there are more ups than downs.

Mark works at SAP, the largest and most successful business application software company in the world ... and his team enjoys great success as a leader in collaborative, innovative, highly impactful Enterprise 2.0 Communities
Karen works as Director of IT Communications at Kaiser-Permanente
Kendrick graduated from Cal Poly and works at Dealer Tire.
Dan is a sophomore at Montgomery County Community College in Pennsylvania. 
Kim+Brian+Carson (and Howie the dog) are awaiting a new baby brother, due in September 2007.   
Mark's sister Kim and her husband Ray and daughter Alyssa live and work (and play) near Cincinnati, Ohio.
Mark and Karen are active in All Nations church in Oakland, CA.
When the weather is beautiful (which it usually is in Northern California), and he has time (uh... see "work" above), Mark relaxes on his Harley-Davidson Road King Classic. 
It seems that Mark and Karen are always working on the house... alternating renovation projects from inside to outside.  Maybe in ten years it'll be "done" ... and time to start all over again.
