Count Me In
Thank you to Cory for starting this Blog. Seems like the easier it is to communicate, the less we do of it. Many moons ago when there was just snail mail, people were prolific writers; then the telephone came along and people stopped writing letters and started calling; then email came along and people started relying on email for communication... but now I get so many friggin' emails that I don't have time to write anyone!
OK, stats, here goes.....
Me
I live in Greenville, SC with my two lovely (!) boys, Tucker (9) and Jacob (7)
I'm engaged to Don Kasperski - Yes, we HAVE set a date... June 10, 2006.... Y'all are invited, just haven't gotten around to the invitation thing yet (because I'm too busy dealing with emails)
That's us in the pic.
Don is an Engineer with GE - used to design the big blades on Wind turbines, but has recently become a Principal Engineer in gas turbine compressors. And being a big turkey himself, it is only natural that he gets sent to Turkey now and again for engine testing (so I get cool Turkish presents)
Don has 3 (!) kids - Tyler (16), Keenan (13) and Katriel.
Here's the Hoard at Disney last summer.
If you can't tell them apart, Jacob is the little one, and Tucker is the mean looking dude in the white shirt.
We're building a house to hold us all.
It's going to have to be a big one.
(A moment to brag on my kids.... Both are straight A students, both are in Challenge classes at school (pull-out program where they get to work 'advanced studies'), Tucker is in the Visual Arts ARMES program through the Greenville Fine Arts Center (an 'invitation only' program, dontcha know), and Jacob just received his Iowa State Test results - scored in the top 98th percentile... they're GREAT kids)
I work for General Electric - I'm an Engineering Manager. My daddy keeps asking me when they're going to let me drive the train.... I'm not sure, I'll keep you posted.
Other than that, I FINALLY finished my MBA and I'm never going to school again!

Diane,
I was coerced into setting up the blog by my papa, and he posted something and then it disapeared...what??
Anyway, thanks for the pics, the news [congratulations!!] and what a brood...one girl...what a mix...and she's in the middle, no less.
Where's the wedding? And Greenville isn't really all that far from DC so a road trip [us to you, since there are fewer...] would be a load of fun!!
Glad to hear things are going well for you...
