The girls are excited about spring around the corner (who isn't!). Katie's 11th birthday was
great. Tielly loved using his new snowblower and the girls loved having two new babies to play with including baby Anne born on Christmas Day (she belongs to our friends, the Youngs) and baby cousin Zarin who belongs to Neil and Mandy in Atlanta.Tielly and Bonnie had a great time at the NCAA Convention in Washington DC. Among the highlights was attending a taping of Pardon the Interruption (PTI) with Tony Kornheiser and Micheal Wilbon. The guest was Hines Ward of the Super Bowl championship team, Pittsuburgh Steelers.
KIMMY NEWS
Kimmy plays a lot of volleyball. Her 15-year old Blackswamp team won their first tournament of the season. So far they have finished in the top three every weekend. She is playing middle-blocker which is a strange position for her.....primarily she is a right-side hitter. This weekend her team plays in Lodi and later in the month she travels to Troy (Dayton).

her high school activities! You can see she is maturing just as typical high school girls do. The photo to the left was before she went to the "black and white" dance at Calvert. (We almost didn't let her out of the house!).

(We almost didn't let her out of the house!).Kimmy is giving up softball this year since she is performing in a Calvert High School play in April (South Pacific) and a Ritz Theater play in May (Music Man). She also performs in the high school "Show Choir" and will head to Chicago right after her birthday (it's on Easter Day this year!). Getting a learning permit to drive is what is on her mind as of late.

Behind Katie in her swim cap photo is her friend Lindsay who has baby sister Anne. Lindsay will go with us to Oakland University next weekend for Zones. Yes, Katie WAS bribed with an I-
Pod for making zones which she did receive this morning. Her goal this weekend is to beat her little nemesis' in the free style (Kathryn Smith from Sandusky) and to try to qualify for zones in the fly. Zone swimming includes the top competitors in each age-group from Ohio, Michigan, West Virginia, Kentucky, and Indiana. It should be fun and challenging.That is enough news for now! Stay tune....and thanks for reading!
