KELLY JO (22) – Following a cross-country trek (literally…ALL the way across the country) this summer, participating in way-cool dance events with her No. 1 Man (Dustin—The Wind), K.J. started a full-time nanny job with two families and has officially moved to Saint Paul, where she bikes more than drives, dances when she can, and still loves coffee.
CURTIS (24) –Curtis and his bride, Christine, still live in NYC, working in a couple high-end eating establishments as they audition their little hearts out. They both escaped the New York hurricane by, of all things, being in Florida…performing in a regional theatre production of A Funny Thing Happened on the Way to the Forum. Curtis had the same role his daddy did when he was in a local theatre production of the show! The big C-mas gift last year for us all was flying them in for a visit in January. We had a blast.
SHONDA (28) –Air Force hubby, John, has received his orders to return to the States from Germany (where he and Shonda have been for almost 4 years) in February. Sad news this year was the passing of their German shepherd, Aby. Hopes are high that the weather will allow them a short visit in Minnesota before reporting for duty in Little Rock, Arkansas.
ANGEL (31) –is teaching first grade for the 8th year, but gave a substitute a steady gig through Spring Break starting December 4th, when Jesse Darrel Stanley made his early arrival. His due date was Dec 30, and he was only 5 lbs, 13 oz, but mommy and son are doing fine. Husband Phil already has The Knack for soothing his son, who doesn’t necessarily like having his diapers changed. Phil’s baby pictures have been consulted and it is official, Jesse looks enough like him that they better start labeling the photos.
DEBBIE – Finished the 4th and final CD in the Hope series, living letters of HOPE, and has been blessed with multiple speaking and singing engagements…to the point that it’s all paid for. Next project: getting enough funds to restock the 3rd CD, which is almost gone. (More info at http://www.restinhimministry.com) Debbie has healed well from an Achilles tendon repair this summer and is pretty excited about being a Grandma to a little guy who is only 9 miles away.
DEWEY – With the wonderfully-welcome addition of becoming a Grampa, last year’s entry could just about be repeated… still Technical Writer with Harris IT Services; Actor/Choreographer/Asst. Director with Giant Step Theatre; elder and worship leader with Valley Christian Church; blogger at almostthetruth.blogspot.com…well, one change, there’s a new and improved www.almostthetruth.com website available for perusal, but that’s about as important as the ever-decreasing number of hairs on Dewey’s head.
MAY THE HOPE OF CHRIST DWELL IN YOUR HEART IN THE COMING YEAR AND FOR ALL OF ETERNITY!
