Anyways, some updates:
Jeff- is working at Prosser High School as the In School Suspension Supervisor, (fancy name for DETENTION TEACHER) :-) He does such a great job with the kids in that class, offering them a person who really cares about their successes and how NOT to get back into his class. Jeff has had discussions in class like...."if you could change something in this community, what would it be?" "What do you want to do with your life in....1 year, 5 years, 10 years?" "If you had $10,000 to spend, but you couldn't spend it on yourself, how would you spend it?" and so many more great topics.... the kids have responded well, by asking Jeff to be a person that would help them be accountable to their goals that they have set! Very cool....nice job babe!
Jeff is done with football, with disappointing loss at State....but is excited for next year. He is coaching the "C" team in girls basketball now, and is loving it.
Kelli- is keeping busy with my photography business. Looking to open a new studio downtown Prosser in a really cool old hotel. Great character! I have several weddings already booked this year, way more than last year....that is a good sign! I am beginning to train Ashley to help out in the editing department. I would let her shoot more...but then she would make me look bad....so I am holding off on that just yet. :-) Actually she does a great job and comes to help me with weddings.
I keep myself busy driving the kiddos around to different things that they are involved in. LOVING that everything is so close and that I do not have to jump on I-5 and deal with traffic!! I also enjoy going to Jeff's games and cheering on his girls. Here is Amy, Kristie and myself enjoying some apple smashing on Thanksgiving. So much fun!
Jaden- is going the Stampede Wrestling club for the Lower Yakima Valley. I can't wait to see him in his wrestling suit!! :-) He is doing really great in school. Has met some great friends. He really enjoys seeing the "famous" football players when we go to the high school for games and such. In this picture is Cody Hartley....he is a HUGE junior... He is being looked at by several large colleges. We have his autograph just in case he makes it to the pros! :-)
Megan- is such a great worker in school. She has a really great teacher that pushes her to do great! She really likes being challenged. She is making great friends and is looking forward to soccer starting back up in the fall. She is nine now and looking forward to double digits this year for some earrings! (where is the time going?) Megan had her 9th birthday on Thanksgiving this year. We played a soccer tournament for one of her birthday presents....Soooo much fun! We will definatly make that a tradition!
Sabrina- is getting all A's in school. She will also play soccer in the spring. She has art this quarter in school and is doing an amazing job. She has her little art easel in the rec room to draw to her hearts content! :-) She also likes making up dances and skits to perform for the family and for some reason....randomly draws unibrows and mustaches on herself? ;-)
Katelyn- is still crazy about horses. She is the girls basketball manager at school, due to a hip issue that she has been having since she got kicked by a horse last year. She just celebrated her 13th birthday. We supplied the junk food, and carpet space for 11 girls to stay overnight! We went to the basketball games at the school, came home and
ate ice cream cake, pizza, skittles, sour patch kids, chips, M&M's and so much more!!! We also played some cute games...one being the Cheezit game. (start with a cheezit on your forehead and try to get into your mouth without using your hands) **let us know if you can do it!**
Ashley- is a work a hollic. :-) She does everything at 120% which is amazing how she juggles everything. *Grandma Huffaker- she must have your genes! :-)* She is on the Pep Club Board and is very active in spreading school spirit by putting up posters, giving treat bags to the athletes and the like at the school. She was on the Royalty committee for Winter Ball where she got to crown King and Queen at the dance. She is starring in the next high school play, she is in and on top of all that....she is getting a 3.8 GPA! She has passed her Drivers Ed class, so now we are just waiting till the big day. She will start Running Start next year at the college. And she is working with her mom. :-)
That is all for now.....hope you are all doing well and loving Jesus!!
