I am married to my wonderful husband of 22 years. We have two wonderful children, Colton (19) & Whitney (17 1/2). Mark works full time for Ahlstrom Filtration in Taylorville & I run a full time daycare in our home. Check back for updates on our family!
Here's Whitney with her bright orange cast. Come on, we had to get orange for October/Halloween. She can't wait to get this off. Only 2 more days until we see the dr. again!
This is my brother, Andy & his wife, Kathy. They live in Windsor, IL. They are trying to sell their house in Windsor so they can move to Mattoon. Andy works over towards Mattoon & both their kids live in Mattoon so they could be closer to their family. Their kids are Gerold & Andrea. Gerold has proposed to his fiance & they are planning a marriage. Andrea is married to Chris Morrisson.
This is my brother, Scott & his wife, Mary. They live in Gays, IL. They both are employed at Donnelly's in Mattoon, IL. Scott has 2 boys, David & Chris. Mary has 3 kids, Ben, Zach, & Sarah. Scott & Mary enjoy working in their yard, spending time wtih family & they love camping & traveling.
This is our daughter, Whitney & her boyfriend, Mike. Whitney is a senior in high school this year & will graduate in May. It's sooo hard to believe that we will now have both kids out of high school. How I wish we could turn the clock back, but life must go on. Whitney plans on attending college after school, but she's confused as to what to do & where to go. She's throwing the idea of nursing, physical therapy & something to do with kids. Hopefully, she'll be deciding soon so she'll know what she's doing. Whitney's boyfriend is a really nice guy. But...Mike's friend sure needs to learn how to drive, ha!!! Whitney ended up with a broken arm from a golf cart accident. They were going a little fast down a hill & they went to turn & the golf cart turned over causing Whitney's arm to be under the golf cart & then a fractured arm/wrist. She'll be so glad to get the cast off. She goes back on Thursday so I'll keep you updated on it. I'm also going to see if I can get a pic of her with her cast on so I can post it also.
This is our son, Colton & his girlfriend, Ashli. They have been dating for almost two years now. This pic was taken a few weeks back in Chicago. Ashli is attending college in Chicago for culinary Arts. Colton is attending college @ LLC in Mattoon to become a paramedic. He is employed by Pana/Decatur Ambulance Service. He loves his work. He was just voted on for a fireman in Pana. He loves being on the fire department & is hoping when he finishes college that he can find a full time fire department in a big city.
Welcome to our blog. Not that we know yet what we are all doing, but with the help of each other & Traci Cutler, we are getting there. We decided it was the "in" thing to do.....so here goes nothin'!
