Just an update on our lives...
Kevin and I are entering our 20th year of marriage. OMGosh!!! Can you believe how fast time goes? We are going to spend a weekend away at a Colorado cabin at the beginning of the summer so we can do some hiking, sailing, and R&R. Kevin is still working for Pfizer with a new boss and his old territory. MB is still doing part-time PT work, currently preparing to teach an orthotics guest lecture at the PT school, and will be taking one grad-school class at UNM this spring. It is actually in her field, so she is excited! It will be a research class on Evidence-Based Practice through the PT school. She'll enjoy it while she can because it will be back to education classes in the fall.
Brianna is turning out to be a lovely teenager who has thankfully avoided much of the mid-school drama. She is very smart, works hard in school, loves being with her friends, and beats up on her father whenever she is with him. Deciding to give up harp and stepdance, she has found her passions: volleyball (she is playing club), piano, and singing We are starting to look into high schools... yikes... because she is one year away.
Nathan is one enthusiastic, fun, annoying, musical little brother. He is in the same class as Brianna at the Family School, and is thriving under the iron fist of Gael, his teacher and principal. He can be found listening to Christian hard rock most of the time and/or drumming. He wants to be a drumming priest when he grows up and dreams about having a church in Durango or Aspen, Colorado. When not playing percussion, he is either doing homework, playing sports, or asking for a play date.
We just got back from my grandpa's funeral in Aspen where we had a memorial for both of my grandparents. It is hard to believe these "immortal" people are gone. They were our idols in so many ways: faith, family, fun. Around 30 of us skied together last week in their honor, in fact we did all 4 mountains in Aspen in a day! We so enjoy
