James has reached the ripe old age of 25. His Navy career has been one of many surprises much to his mother's chagrine. Since he left the States for Japan, he's really travelled. Been to Hong Kong, Guam, the Arabian Gulf and now on to Australia. When he comes home he will definitely have been a world traveler. He's the oldest of the 3 kids, and I love him dearly! This one has a large part of my heart! I'm very proud of him as he has accomplished everything he has set out to do! He takes after his dad in that, with a stubborn determination and I'm glad of it! :-) Jamie came back stateside in June of 2001. After the attacks on the World Trade Center in New York and the Pentagon in Washington DC, I felt our lives would not quite be the same. My son, however, continues to give me great pride in him when he tells me that they will all do what ever it takes protect our freedoms. He tells me they have a job to do and it will get done. He was overseas again in the Gulf for several months and is back stateside again.
Merri has moved back to Florida to go to school. :-) She has given me beautiful grandsons, Eythan and Braydan, born in November of 1999 and June of this year 2003.

Merri is continuing her education training in Paralegal. With school, work and being a mother, wears me out thinking about it! She's my doll! Beauty and brains! She's got a special part of my heart ! I'm extremely proud of her!!!!!! Graduates next June!
This is his 8th grade photo. He likes to have his picture taken, that's for sure.
Zoo trip's, bowling and swimming are just a few of the activities that keep him busy.
