So it has been about 12 years since my last post!! lol. The boys are now almost 30!! Jacob is married to Audrey and has been for about 3.5 years now. The other two are in long term relationships to people we also love-- Erika for Noah and Drew for Micah. They visit us often at our cottage. Heck yes! We have a new cottage! Well we got it in 2022 October. It is Dave's family's cottage. What a mess it was to get it, but worth it! Jacob and Audrey live in Holland, Drew and Micah in Flint and noah lives home with us. Erika comes over lots. :) 

We have 3 dogs right now. Walter our Golden retriever baby-- age 3. Roland is 11 and Ez is 9. They are sweet fellas-- yes all boys. I retired last year after teaching for 35 years! I write curriculum for an SEL company and i nanny once a week for a little one named Crew-- he just had a baby sister named Lily, too! Great family! Dave is still at Rylee's Hardware. We just celebrated our 35th wedding anniversary. We are learning more and more about what makes each other tick as we get older. I would say I understand him better now and love him even more than I did when we got married. 

Mom died in January but she was ready. She had Alzheimer's and was nearly 90. It was her time and she was so ready. 

I hope to use this blog more now that i found it back. See you soon!
