Scott and Jill Kolesar site added

Added a link on the Homepage under Other Family Site Links for a few Scott and Jill Kolesar pictures of their twins, Emily Rose and Sarah Ann.

If anyone has a site that they would like linked, let me know.

Event Calendar added

Added an Event Calendar link to the Homepage under "Special Links". The default TribalPages Events list is restricted to birthdays and anniversaries of living individuals. I wanted something more flexible and I prefer a calendar format so I signed up for a free online calendar at http://www.planzo.com/. This calendar allows any kind of event to be added. I've completely populated February and March with birthdays, anniversaries, and what-not. A few selected items have been added for the other months (including the September Kingzett picnic). I'll fill in the other months a bit at a time.

If anyone has any kind of event they want added, just let me know.
