Don't cry for me Oklahoma!

As you all know, this family doesn't stay in one place for very long. I've been offered Field Operations Manager in West Chester Pennsylvania with my old company Stantec. I've accepted the position and I will be moving there the 29th of Jan. Tara and the kids will follow once the children are out of school and the lease is up on our current residence. We are going to miss Ponca. We've all grown very fond of this community and even the kids are a bit upset about leaving. Unfortunately, the company I hired on with when Stantec left, doesn't have the paths necessary for me to develop a satisfying career. When Stantec offered me this position, it rekindled the love I had for a job once. As usual, I have to the support of my beautiful wife and most of the kids....So...off we go! Here's a refresher of some of the friends we've made here in Ponca.

Dave's Girlfriend

Dave's girlfriend Madison stopped by with four of her friends....all girls. Needless to say, Dave was quite popular for about a half an hour. As I worked up in my office, all could hear was the giggling from a gaggle of girls! Then Daves prepubecent high/low voice breaking through the high pitch squeels. He was in heaven!

Mr. Rowemantic!

Awkward.....

Merry Christmas

Merry Christmas everybody! Well, 2010 is almost over. We've got Cassie back and some family visiting to boot! It's been a nice X-mas!

Nana and PopPop join the pic!

Cassie Graduates Thunderbird Youth Acadamy

It's been a long 6 months but Cassie finally comes home! We're all so proud of Cassie for whats she's accomplished at TYA. Her Nana and Pop Pop came out to watch her graduate and spend Christmas with us.

Unfortunately Cassie wasnt aloud to come out after graduation with her Class A uniform on, so this is the last picture we got of her dressed out. On stage she had just received her congratulations from the Speaker of the House of Oklahoma.

This is Nell Pierce, one of Cassies fellow graduates and good friend.
