Happy Holidays! We hope you are all enjoying your holiday season. 2011 has been a busy year for us, filled with adventure and fun! Here’s a bit of our year:
Robbie “wanna shoot some hoops?” Brumm will be turning 13 in February, is in 7th grade, and is keeping busy with basketball, racquetball, and track (spring). He was on the Hart Middle School Basketball Team and was so pleased that they came in 2nd place (although 1st would have been even more pleasing!). He has been playing the drums for 2 ½ years now and is really rockin’ it! He’s enjoying being in both concert band & jazz band in school this year. Robbie is a cool kid with a great sense of humor and is a kick to be around.
Andrew “will you play Yu-Gi-Oh with me?” Brumm will be turning 15 in February, is in the 8th grade, and is looking forward to high school next year! He is in his 2nd year of being a Special Olympics Athlete, participating in bowling, basketball, track and golf. School is going very well this year and he’s made many new friends through the Yu-Gi-Oh Club. He is really looking forward to having a Yu-Gi-Oh tournament for his birthday in February. And on a side-note: mom and dad can’t believe how expensive his size 13 shoes are! He is a wonderful young man and helps us see life so much more fully.
Janeen, 29, is still modeling swimsuits and is so happy to have completed her PhD in Physics. What? Honestly, she is LOVING her Social Media Business and is so happy to have found a 2nd career in something right up her alley. She completed her 9th half marathon in October and is looking forward to her 10th in April of 2012. Taking care of the boys (all 3), working, entertaining, running, playing with her girlfriends & volunteering at school are all what make Janeen tick. Life is good.
Dan, 32, is training for his 3rd ironman, as well as writing his first novel titled “Why don’t I golf as much as I’d like?” Read the book to find out the answer. Actually, Dan is working at Avaya, and his role, like many of his colleagues’, is a virtual office position. As you can imagine, Janeen is thrilled to have him working at home. Every. Single. Day. :) He is the coach again this year for Robbie’s CYO basketball team, and he spends as much time as he can at the gym playing basketball and working out with Andrew & Robbie.
Highlight of 2011: The four of us enjoyed a trip of a lifetime to Europe in June! We went to London, Paris & Rome and had an absolutely magnificent time. While in London, we were so fortunate to be able to stay with our next-door neighbors, the Cranes, who lived there for 3 years, but are home now. The trip was truly a thrilling 2 weeks for us, and we all enjoyed every bit of it.
We wish you a happy holiday season and joyful New Year!!!
Love, Dan, Janeen, Andrew & Robbie
