End of the School Year


We are always thrilled to have Eric's former students come to visit. Alex, on the right, was one of the girls' favorite babysitters of all time and she just graduated from college. She and her sister joined us for dinner and had a hard time getting out the door due to all of the children hanging on them.


We have been so blessed to be at Sandy Hill for our children's education. This dear teacher POURED herself into Elizabeth's life this year and will never be forgotten. If we could adopt an additional grandma, she has been nominated. We're so thankful for the input she's had into Elizabeth and feel that our daughter is now a better person because of her. It was very difficult to say goodbye, but I'm sure she will get many visits in the coming years.



Ashlynn also had a fabulous kindergarten year. She has grown and blossomed under this wonderful teacher's direction. Having already taught Elizabeth, she has a special place in our hearts already and we hope she will stick around long enough to have Bryan. Oh boy, that may be the end of her. :-)




Elizabeth has now completed her second year of piano. She is playing beautifully and we all enjoy listening to her practice. This past week she had her second piano recital. Hopefully, there will be many more.

Great Grandpa honored Elizabeth by sitting through the LONG recital. We're so happy that he
is able and willing to enjoy these special times with us.




Grandma Kregel was also there helping to keep the other children entertained.




And another big thank you to Grandpa and Grandma Tower for taking time out of their busy schedules to support our girl! We love you!
