A Jeffrey Original


Here is a football that Jeff designed and made in his Engineering and Professional Development class. He was learning how to weld metal together for manufacturing processes. I wonder if this quarterback has been throwing this football on the football field?

Happy 65th Anniversary Dad and Mom!




Sixty five years ago on November 7th my parents were married in Wisconsin. They are the parents to five children , grandparents to 15 grandchildren and great grandparents to 3 great-grandchildren. Not many people have the privileged of celebrating 65 years of marriage so we celebrated twice. We celebrated once on the day of their anniversary with their friends where they are living in Moorhead and again this past Sunday at my sister's home with family.

Happy Birthday Dad!





Dad-


Today is your birthday. Thank you Dad for all the special memories we have shared with you. Who can forget the Chicken Noodle Soup Parade around the house before we ate Chicken Noodle soup, or playing the piano while we sang. How about teaching us how to make cotton candy or those trips to the State Football tournaments. The memories are endless Dad and they mean so much to us. Thanks for teaching us about Jesus Dad and for your encouraging words and unconditional love. We are so proud to call you our father!

Happy Pumpkin Day




Who doesn't remember the fun of carving pumpkins in October! Well,it looks like some of our children still think it is fun. Actually, Nicholas had to do pumpkin carving as an art project for school. He chose to carve The Last Supper in his pumpkin's face. If you can see it, the carving has 3 different layers to it. Some of the carving of the Last Supper is all the way through the pumpkin and another layer such as the table is just carved partially through.


Then there is Lindsay and Sam who made pumpkin carving a date night.


Nick claims he took first place and is looking for better competition amongst family next year!


"Nice try Sam and Lindsay" - Niz

Football Finale







The football season officially ended last night. Nicholas played his last JV game as quarterback last week and they ended their season with a 6-2 record. Nick also kicks for the varsity team and last night they ended their season in a play-off game. What a great bunch of guys! We will miss this group of seniors and their leadership.
