and innocent. Teaching is very rewarding.

aPriL- eRic graduated in Conservation Biology.
maY- We had lots of fun staying with the Castle’s in Cedar Hills! Eric presented his research in Calgary.

easy as we thought. Exciting though!
juLy- Asia is amazing. We had great times
riding through Toroko Gorge National Park, monkey watching, sitting in volcanic hot pools, visiting aborigine tribes, observing water buffalo and teaching in a new culture.

I teach Middle School 7th & 8th graders with behavior issues.
Eric finished building his dream bike. We joined KSU cycling and we’ve had a blast traveling to races in the Midwest. I love my Wheat Mill, I make lots of Kansas wheat bread.

NoVEmBeR-We visited Liberty jail and have enjoyed historical sites in America’s Heartland. I’ve had a tough Fall, adjusting to demands of grad school with difficult situations
at work. I Love my program in School Counseling
and I plan to continue my research with children.
DeCEmBeR-I’m still a veggie head, and sure I always will be, as of yet I haven’t converted Eric (the meat head ha!).
May the pure light of Christ warm your
hearts now and through out the new year.
