FAMILY!

Very KEWL family stuff updates! Let’s start with the oldest of our kids, daughter Amanda and her family. Marc and Amanda are actively involved in the NRA, Portland, OR. chapter. For the last several years they have ’chaired’ the annual banquet committee, and this year I think they had around 900+/- attendees. Hugely successful! My granddaughter Ashley is preparing for high school next year, picking out classes, etc. Grandson Kyle recently got involved with a local shooting team and has already earned his first patch. Marc and Amanda are now becoming firearm instructors to go along with all their other interests. Now on to son Wade and his family, and the big news is: the upcoming delivery of our twin granddaughters Emersyn and Finley. They will arrive in mid-June and we’re all pretty excited. And grandson Connor is our little athlete. He has playing soccer and is now getting ready for baseball. He is looking forward to having sisters! And our youngest is son Toby and his very significant other (and hopefully new bride soon! ) Jocelyn. They are busy with spring weather. Jocelyn is busy with work and Toby has been out fishing. Rumor has it he caught a pretty big cat fish in Oregon somewhere, but no picture, it didn’t happen! Like us, they are missing our annual trip together to Cabo this year. Can you tell? Donna and I are both very proud of our kids and grandkids! Pictured here are recent photo of granddaughter Ashley; Wade playing in the local park; daughter-in-law Michelle in all her glory; grandson Connor with his soccer trophy, and visiting Chuck E. Cheese with grandpa; and last year's Cabo photo doing what we do best!
