A quick update on this past year:
Andrew continues to study biochemistry at BYU along with working part-time. We are enjoying spending Christmas break together!
Chandler has brought us our first daughter (-in-law)!! He and Rachel Linford were married April 20th of this year. Chandler continues his studies in Mechanical engineering, and Rachel is in electrical engineering. We are so excited to welcome our first grandson, their first son, in February!
Jordan has started cosmetology school, and is acing his exams! He’s just begun cutting on the floor and we’re all lining up to be his practice subjects.
Seth is graduating early from high school in January, and has been working at Frankenmuth Credit Union since the beginning of the summer. He continues to excel on the piano as well as video editing and other computer hobbies. He’s preparing to begin his 2-year mission next summer.
Michael (along with Seth) has been doing virtual school this year and is doing well with managing his time and working on his piano skills. Michael amazes us with his quick wit and natural performance skills.
Bentley is rocking the middle school years! He’s managed to keep straight A’s in his classes while also participating in cross country and boys swim team this year. He also started kung fu with Seth and Michael this year.
Clayton loves second grade and loves building legos, soccer, piano, and tennis. He is a loving brother to Joseph, faithfully “watching” him every day after school for 30 minutes. He is Ellie’s favorite right now (our elderly pet dog who has gone completely deaf). I think he will be the most affected when she leaves our family.
Joseph was excited to join his brothers in the world of schooling by starting preschool this year. He’s very interested in the agenda for each day, and ends each day by asking what is planned for the next day. He steals the show wherever he goes, and we all adore him!
Greg and Sherie continue as seminary teachers each weekday morning from 5:50 - 6:50 in our basement. We love the youth that faithfully attend each day! Greg continues his patent work with Optum (a division of UHG), and Sherie still wonders what free time feels like.
Our family travels/vacations this year included going to Utah for Chandler and Rachel’s wedding, a trip to Mackinaw Island over the summer, a camping trip at Higgins Lake, and a family cruise that was planned, but never happened (durn you COVID!) but we hope will come to pass very soon.
We love you all, and share with you our love for Jesus Christ, who gave His life that we might have joy in this life and the next! We thank God for all of our blessings, which includes the love and friendship of all of you!
Love,
Greg, Sherie, Andrew, Chandler (& Rachel!), Jordan, Seth, Michael, Bentley, Clayton, and Joseph
