A few weeks ago, Ruby turned 10 and has come a long way from that first day at 1 lb 8 oz, 12 inches long! She's in 4th grade and loves to read, camp, and this year she is learning to do coding (programming) at her school. She takes swimming lessons at school and has decided she'd like to learn to play the drums. She loves her cousins Levi and Jadon and is always excited to come to our house so she can get to see them.

Our son, Kevin and his family live nearby and this year Levi is also 10 and in fifth grade. He played soccer this year and enjoyed it to the extent he's looking forward to playing again next year. He is learning to play the trombone at school and also likes to read. Jadon is a happy two year old and loves Thomas the Train!

In March, this family will be presenting us with our second granddaughter and everyone is excited.
