Nathaniel and Kim Tie the Knot


The happy couple - this is one of my favorite pictures. We have tons more to come but I wanted to post a few pics for now. Thanks to everyone who traveled to come to the wedding. We really appreciate your encouragement and support. We had a great time and we realize how much we miss getting together as a family. We really need to plan a family reunion soon. It meant a lot to us that you were there and we love you all. Enjoy these pictures and watch for more to come.

Ohio's Newest Police Officer

Nathaniel had his final interview this morning with the Lebanon Police Department (a town about 40 minutes from Beavercreek) and he got the phone call about 3 hours later that he got the job! He has been in the interview process with them since December. It is a BIG answer to prayer. They hired 3 out of about 150 applicants. Now he can support his soon to be wife, Kim.
He actually let me take line up photos of him! Thank goodness he will be on the other side of the mirror and when we visit him at the jail, he will be the one putting criminals behind bars!
Congratulations, Nathaniel. We are very proud of you! Kiera, I guess we can call him a Copper like the policemen we saw in Florida!
Check out the bottom two pictures. (If you click on the picture, it will zoom in and you can see it better) Nathaniel lived in his police helmet. He had a battery operated radio that he hooked on to his big wheel and he wore his police helmet and his boots. Who would have known that 18 years later he would trade those in for the real uniform.

Happy Birthday, Marlene

Happy birthday, Marlene. I pulled this picture from Kiera's wedding. Maybe we can
get a better one of Allen at Nathaniel's wedding - ha! Thanks for being a good example
of what a grandmother does. Your blog is always full of what they are
doing and I appreciate that. Have a great day. See you soon.
P.S. I'll post Greg's birthday pictures later.
He had a very uneventful day.
