Merry Christmas Indiana Jones!
We want to wish you a blessed and Merry Christmas this week!
With 2 boys in college now, it's becoming exceedingly more difficult to get a family photo...much less a "Christmas card photo." I grabbed this from our Thanksgiving gathering. It would appear that I am shrinking, as these young men continue to sprout taller than me. Here's a quick life update to go along with our digital Christmas card!
Ryan just completed the first semester of his Junior year at Florida State. Another semester of the Dean's list, and another semester of working hard to set himself up for success in the future! If you haven't yet heard his story about getting through college debt free, I highly recommend watching it. And sharing it with anyone you know who has or will have a kid in college soon!
Charlie finished the first semester of his Freshman year at the University of Alabama. He joined the waterski team and skied in tournaments all over the southeast and was elected the new Vice President for the ski team. When not at the lake practicing, he was always in the library studying for his Bio/Chem and calculus classes - he quickly learned how challenging pre-med track is...but he has risen to the occasion!
Tyler is in the throes of his sophomore basketball season, growing as a leader for the team, and training hard to become the best player he can be. He's also the 3rd graduate of the Erin Chase driving school and is loving his new found freedom of driving himself here, there and everywhere. Also, holy car insurance!
Austin continues with his tennis playing. He had an undefeated season with this JTT team, leading them to their second consecutive state championship 2 weeks ago. He was recognized by his coach as the Most Improved Player, from all of his teams/levels. Austin has been working so hard to improve and it shows!
Steve and I continue our work-from-home endeavors and are so grateful to our work and the flexibility that comes with it...so we can keep up with these 4 young men and all their activities and adventures!
Merry Christmas from the Chases
