Blogworthy

Maybe you have to know my family. Or maybe just my dad. Or maybe this letter really is the example of cheese. Whatever the reason, I about died reading the Christmas letter my parents sent out, so....here it is for all my blog friends to read:

Hard the Herald Watt Angels Sing...We certainly have a lot to be singing about this year. With 2 new additions to the family we need to make room at the in. Kristin and Jon will no longer be having Silent Nights at their household. They received a call from (name) Adoption Agency  on the 9th of January. They did not have to ask What Child Is This, they knew it was the child that God wanted them to raise and provide for. After 6 weeks in the neonatal intensive care unit, at (hospital) in (city). It Became Upon a Midnight Clear that Caleb Robert (CJ) would be going home with his mom and dad. Everything became "official" on Monday November 15th in (city). Kathy was so excited and overcome with emotion it was almost like Grandma got run over by a reindeer. 


In October We Heard the Bells not on Christmas Day but on Jenna's wedding day. Jenna married Nolan on Oct. 2 at Tullymore Golf Club in Canadian Lakes. Jenna has been singing Joy to the World because in May she graduated and is now an RN at Port Huron Hospital in the maternity ward. She gets the opportunity almost on a daily basis to wrap babies in swaddling clothes. Nolan is working towards becoming a golf pro and is currently working at The Elks Golf Course. Jon is excited because all he wants for Christmas is someone to help him with his golf game. 


Now, unto the Littlest Angel, our Jalissa Joy to the World. She keeps us busy attending all of her activities. Jalissa is still involved with travel softball, pitching lessons, no add a fall volleyball schedule and a new love...basketball. Jalissa is a freshmen at St. Clair High School and is very in involved in all aspects of the high school life. she is even coaching the "little angels" at Biddy Basketball on Saturday mornings. 


Kathy continues to Deck the Halls at Crull Elementary School in Port Huron. She is in her 27th year of teaching 2nd grade. Kathy loves being a grandma and hanging out with Grandpa. 


Grandpa Jon was downsized in January. And even though the weather outside if frightful, God continues to be delightful. Jon has been working on getting licensed and certified in the health insurance industry. Jon is a senior market advisor working for himself and helping seniors make sense of the new health care changes that have taken place over the past 12 months. Jon is also coaching JV Girls Basketball at St. Clair High School. 


We look forward to hearing from each of you, 
We wish you a merry Christmas!
