Our Family

Here's the latest...

Well, after more than a year, I decided I'd better update this (or Geocities may dump me anyhow!). It's January, 2004, and here goes...

Donn

Still working for SendMail, but is finally getting a bit more vacation. He's now in management, so that's a pretty big change for him.
He and Alex are always busy with some scout activity or another. I actually love it :-).
He 's been working a lot on the house in the last year. At the moment he's making me a pantry!

Cris

I'm still homeschooling and also working with the homeschool support group, but I've also -with my sister and a friend- started a software company. It's just starting up, but I do love the product, made especially for non-profits. Should help them a lot.
One big thing for me is that in the last year I've lost 99 lbs. I was so hoping to hit the 100 lb loss mark, but just couldn't make it. I'm still losing tho.
As of last year, I've started container gardening because of a really nasty weed that I just can't get rid of. I've been trying for 5 years or more, but it just keeps spreading! Anyhow, I've covered the entire area for a tarp and will leave it that way for a couple of years at least while I garden in my containers. Oh, and I cut my hair short and love it!

I'm keeping this bird as my mascot, since it bears such a striking resemblance to most of my family!

Ron

Now, with this one, I can tell it's been a long time since I've updated!
Ron is now engaged to a wonderful woman from Georgia named Catherine. She also has 2 young sons, who I've fallen totally in love with and adopted as my grandsons! I'm having so much fun!
They are living in an apartment in Mountain View, and Ron is working at NASA. Catherine is working part time at a theater till she can get her Georgia childcare license turned into a California license. In the mean time, we're enjoying some free movies :-).
Of course both of them are gamers...

Alex

He's still active in Boy Scouts, but has now started babysitting. He's really good at it, and it helps to pay for his main habit of computers and electronics! He's a true Apple fanatic, much like the rest of the family!
He's taking charge with more of his homeschooling these days. He's in High School, so he has some definite opinions :-). He just turned 15, can you believe it?

*****

We sadly had to say goodbye to Pepper a couple of months ago. We really miss her, but will be starting to look for a new puppy soon.
and of course we still have our 3 cats and 4 fish!
