You can definitely tell another year has gone by as our kids are growing up ever so quickly! This past year has been full of lots of fun, laughter and memories. If this is your first time to our blog, please look back on our past year and stay tuned for more fun adventures! We are nearing the kids’ 5th and 3rd birthdays in January. They are at such fun ages right now and are truly enjoying the Christmas happenings. Kids truly bring out the Christmas spirit!
Jared continues to work as an IT Security Consultant. His passion for Purdue sports continues. We just finished our 7th season of having season football tickets! We started the basketball season tickets this year. We are loyal fans, through thick and thin. Bryce has taken a liking to watching and playing sports with Jared as well! Jared had a milestone birthday this year, 30! We were fortunate that the two of us road tripped down to Hilton Head Island, South Carolina for a long weekend to celebrate!
Ashley has stepped back into a permanent nursing role and is working 2 nights (7p-7a) a week in the Neonatal ICU. She has kept her passion for babies over the past 7 years and is happy to be back in this role. The hours give her the time to be home with the kids more, participate in preschool carpool, and get the kids to their activities and play dates! Ashley also took part in the Indianapolis Mini Marathon this past year. What an experience that was! Her and Jared are signed up to run it this coming year and are beginning their training for it…wish us luck!
Bryce is in his last year of preschool. He attends school Monday-Thursday from 9-1. He is learning so much and we are amazed each and every day by him. He is a math whiz and our star athlete! He tried his hand at soccer in the spring, but wasn’t too fond of it as “he always got knocked down.” We let him choose his next sport and he chose gymnastics. He really enjoys gymnastics and has some natural talent! After 10 weeks, they asked him into an Invitation Only class! For those of you that know Bryce, you know he LOVES basketball! Well, he is in his first organized league and LOVES it!
Sadie attends school 1 day a week from 9-1. She is such a bubbly and joyous little girl. She is so full of energy and lights up a room with her smile! She is our little ballerina. Anytime Sadie hears music, she is dancing away. She has been enrolled in ballet/tap for the past year and would love to dance everyday if we let her! Sadie is definitely into all things girlie…jewelry, dress-up, princesses, dolls, tea party, etc.
We have so much to be thankful for and pray that God has bestowed these blessings upon all of you, our dear friends and family!
Merry Christmas Ashley, Jared, Bryce, and Sadie!!
