Autry
2015
The hills were
covered in a dense fog that gave us a sense that we were traveling through the
clouds. It was a surreal feeling as we searched for a house to rent. However,
it was the people we met, not the beautiful scenery that made all the
difference in the world. They gave us the welcome we needed and helped us find
a place to rent for our new adventure in Pennsylvania. The scenery was an added
bonus.
The
people we have and do meet are really what make all the difference in the
world. If you are reading this letter, you are one of those people. Thank you so much for being a part of our
journey through life. We love you and are grateful to know you.
Reese turned 5 this year and
moved into her 6th residence and 4th state. She started
kindergarten and is enjoying it so much that she comes home and plays pretend
school. She now wants to be a teacher. Celia turns 11 very soon and is now in
the 5th grade, which is middle school in this town. She is also
sharing shoes with her mother, but not yet taller than her. (5 inches away)
John was promoted to Staff
Sergeant and that promotion is the reason for our move. He is still a Flight
Paramedic in the Army and absolutely loves his job. His favorite part of the
move is that it necessitated an all wheel drive vehicle and he now owns a car
he loves. (Subaru WRX AKA “the Second Wife”)
Jennifer has had a very busy
year working on her writing. She has reviewed books for online newspapers,
written articles for various sites, and is attempting to work on a novel. You
can follow some of that writing on the blog: http://imperfectlymormon.blogspot.com/
We hope that this year has
been filled with adventures, good times and even better friendships for you.
May the love of Jesus Christ during this season and always bring you the peace
that only our Lord can provide.
We send lots of love from
our family to yours.
MERRY CHRISTMAS!!!
My friend, Michael Steinmacher, is the head librarian over at Fort Knox. He asked our family to pose for some pictures for a press release on the library winning a national award for being such an awesome library. Since I would do almost anything to help the library out, I agreed. It really is a great library. Michael does a great job running it. So that is where our lovely family picture comes from. I really liked the picture because we are all genuinely smiling and laughing. Pretty rare to get that from our family when the camera is on us. It was a really funny book, though. Made even funnier with John and Reese's side comments.
