We're getting ready for Christmas, but who isn't?

HAPPY HOLIDAYS FROM SCOTT AND TIRA


02 Nov 99 We have been very busy here, lately. Scott is studying for his Air Force promotion test.  Melanie took me to a Brownie Haunted house. (Which was a lot of fun.)  I went on a hayride with Heather's Jr. Girl Scout troop, and it was also a blast. I've never been on a hayride before. (hint hint Scott!)  And, Nicholas has started gynmastics, which he loves. And now we get to speed up even more because......

The Holidays are coming! 

07 Oct 99 No news is good news, eh?

03 Sep 99 Things have been calm and HOT in South/West Illinois. Heather and Melanie both started back to school last week. Heather is in the 4th grade this year and Melanie is in the 2nd.
Heather got her cast off the first day of school. Like Sure! There was only that one day at exactly "0920" that they could fit her in to get her cast removed. And yes, he is the only doctor who can do it! I'm having a little trouble buying that....
Tira is back in school herself. She's taking English 101 this time. Nicholas is still Nicholas. I'm on leave for a while this month and am looking forward to a trip to WA. Other than that I plan to sleep late and play with Nicholas (and Tira but I'm not supposed to say that!) all day.
Lets see.... What have I done around here on these pages....
--I've updated the links on this page so things should be cleaner and work a little more 'intuitively'.
--I added the ICQ sign at the top of this page. Click on it and it will take you to our personal ICQ paging center.
--I've moved some of the old news to (appropriately) an old news page. (Scroll all the way down to get to it.)
--I set up the cool, color changing, icons at the bottom of this page.
--I started re-organizing the File Links page but I didn't like the way it was going so I stopped for now.

--Hey! Someone likes my page, see awards (below).

31 Jul 99 Whoah! Did I say Hot??? Man, I ain't seen nothin' yet!
It's been 95+ degrees for 3 week with 80% humidity! Can you say this sucks!?!?!?!
Lets see.... I went to FL and NJ for 3 weeks (in June), We moved 13,000 pounds into a 1,300 sq ft house (first week of July), and Heather broke her arm (all in that order!).
Shoot us an email if you haven't gotten our new address and phone yet.

04 Jun 99 Mom and Dad were through Illinois this Memorial Day Weekend.  And so was Ken!  Ken is one of the silly brothers (visit Scott's personal page if you don't understand).  It was a wonderful weekend.  Busy, hot, but a lot of fun.  IL is in the 90's now.  Melanie is on a T-ball team and loves it!!  The kids are out of school in a few days.  Tira and Heather are gone this weekend on a Girl Scout camp-out (in the heat).  oh, btw, she got a B in her Algebra class. :-).  I did go to Canada, but missed out on a trip to Hawaii.  Instead, I spend a few days in Arizona.  I go to New Jersey later this weekend for two weeks, and Florida afterwards.

28 Mar 99 Things are well in Illinois.
We'll be in the 70's soon, I'll be in Canada for a couple of days, Heather is in a Soccer class, Tira is in a college math class, Nicholas' stitches have healed, and Melanie is Melanie.
Oh, and I updated the calendar. (you've seen it, right?)

06 Mar 99 HEY! Look what I found.... :-)

6 Jan 1999 I hope that everyone has had a good holiday season.
Tira and I and the kids have been a little under the weather (ok, so Tira has Pneumonia) but I've still managed to put up a few pictures under photos, and to fix a couple of typos.

Happy NewYear to you!
