KIDS & GRANDKIDS

We got to watch Mason one night while Derrick & Brittany went out. He loved watching TV with Grandpa!

Here's Jason & Laura with their 5 beautiful children at a Pumpkin Patch in Wisconsin ~ this was in October, notice the jackets! Brrrrr! I don't know who the guy is with the orange pumpkin head, but I don't think he's one of our grandkids! (Is there something we don't know?)
This article was in the the newspaper in Ladysmith, Wisconsin where Jason is living and working now. One of the new Physical Therapists at the County Hospital. Jason, we are so proud of you!!!!
