KIRA is SEVENTEEN!!!

Can you believe that our Kira is 17? It seems like just yesterday that it was a snowy winter day in Pocatello when our baby girl was born. Now she is driving and planning for her college days. For her birthday, we went out to Eugene, Oregon to visit U of O. Kira is thinking ahead and wanted to know what a neuroscience program such as U of O wanted in its incoming graduate students. She was thrilled to find out that some of the schools she is thinking about for undergrad are well thought of. Kiki's first choice at this time is Macalaster, College in St. Paul. Lucky for all of us, we still get our girl for one more year. I am not sure what the boys will do when she is gone, except that Trevor already has plans for her room. Wishing you all well this holiday season.

Happy 17th birthday to our sweet Kira

November is Upon us

WE are all well. Linda's surgery went fine, but the goons in the surgery suite managed to pinch her foot to the bottom of the surgery table for at least 4 of th 5 hour procedure and she awoke screaming, "my foot, my foot!" There was quite a pressure/compression sore that was more painful than the procedure! She also had a goose-egg the size of a ping-pong ball on her head that remains unexplained, but all in all she is off meds, fairly clear headed, and on the mend. Wonderful colleagues have kep the family well-fed throughout this time, and she will be off work until end of Thanksgiving.

All Fall sports have ceased, (Trevor's TaiKwanDo continues) so we are in a nice lull. The election results were very depressing for us but we will never give up the good fight. We maintain that the Religious Right is NEITHER. We will continue to fight for justice, equality, tolerance and truth. Peace.
