We have three kids in three different schools all playing three sports. Sheri leaves for college, and Gramma moves in with us. Mike is playing drums in band, and in "A band"! They rehearse at our house. Randy's mom is diagnosed with ALS, or Lou Gehrig's disease. Still no time, or money, for racing.
We have three kids in college in three different states, Montana, Iowa and California. Still no time, or money, for racing.
We have weddings, and grandchildren. Still...no time, or money, for racing.
The kids were involved in so many different things it would be silly to attempt to document, or represent them all here. Suffice it to say our lives were rich and full, and busy.
This is Mikey at 5 years old, and Bobbie is 7.
The girls both dance for many years.
Here's an unusual use of the boat racing trailer. We built a float in our garage for the Bicentennial Parade in Kentwood, July 4, 1976. Look how cute they were. Sewed the costumes, made hundreds and hundreds of tissue flowers. Homecoming floats gave me the experience to do this. LOL
Sheri attended Montana State University in Bozeman, and played volleyball.
Bobbie play volleyball at the University of Northern Iowa.
...and Mike played volleyball in the Olympic Festival and then at Pierce College in California.
1991, 1993, and 1999 gave us weddings, and 1995, 1997, 1999, 1999, and 2001 brought us grandchildren. God's greatest gifts.
L to R: Madison, Tommy, Ben, Allison, and Lancing
Kids are established, but, we're so much older, I ask, "Honey, are you sure you want to do this?"
"I'm sure," is his reply.
