The above image was shot before I knew what I was doing with my camera...it is one of my favorite memories...can someone suggest some steps to improve this in photoshop? Especially removing the red-eye, which I have not quite figured out how to eliminate in older photos.

Thank you!!!

It's easy. Activate the clone tool, select an area as your source to clone by holding down the alt button and left click with the mouse. Using a brush size slightly feathered on the edges and not using it at 100% opacity so you can gradually darken it I find makes it come out more natural looking.
The dark background of the floor would be a good clone source.
