Blake 's Hockey

Blake messed up his MCL during hockey in the middle of January . He wears a brace and hobbles around sometimes but he played his first game since his injury two days ago and seemed to be good, even though you could tell it bugged him. We have decided we might have to start playing golf now that we are showing our age.

Happy New Year

I want to take a moment to wish everyone a Happy New Year. We are so thankful for our friends and family. We love each one of you so much! Each one of you have touched our lives so much and we are truly blessed with your love and friendships. We look forward to another year of fun and excitement. We hope to keep closer contact with some of you to make our year even better.

Just a retouch of our lives right now--
Blake is still working at Spencer Fluid Power and going to school every night, he will finish up in May in Mechanical Engineering Technology. He still plays Hockey(usually as a defensemen) on the Gibbs team at the Oval.
I'm working as a Para Educator at Truman Elementary working with 2nd and 4th graders using an at risk reading program. I love working with these kids and being at the girl's school. It has been such a rewarding job. I also teach the 5 and 6 year olds in primary and enjoy it most of the time.
Charles is 13 now and going to Eisenhower Jr. High, He finished up wrestling this year being 4th seed in Division and with his Team being fourth in District. He really seems to love the sport even if I have a hard time watching. He also is the 1st counselor in the Deacons quorm and always sets an example to me.
Carrie is 11 and in the 6th grade, she loves to draw. She is currently in Jr. Jazz and loving it. We even painted and decorated her room all in the Jazz theme. She is a basketball player 24/7.
Leah is 6 and in 1st grade and loves the color Gold, singing, dancing, making friends and anything Hannah Montana. She just got her ears pierced in the fall and looks forward to wearing big hoops.
Kylie is 5 and in Kindergarten. She also loves to sing and dance, playing with friends, talking on the phone (every minute, so if we don't answer that's why, so leave a message) and staying at Josh's house every day.
Ellie still just lays around the house and will cry if she has to go outside.
