The Halterman Family (July '07)

For a brief while, the whole Halterman clan was together this summer. We are excited that Mikelle and Bobby have moved to the valley and we get to see a lot more of them, but Jared and Suzy have moved to the middle of nowhere, Missouri for medical school, and now, Kristin has taken off for adventure and excitement on the east coast. Amber is in town, but is super busy with work, her calling as RS Pres. in the singles ward, and loads of friends. But she makes time for us and Mom and Dad make frequent trips down from Prescott, so we do get some good family time.

hope said...: Looks like a great time to be had by all! My dad just turned 70 as well. It is amazing how time flies. Of course, just between you, me and all the other bloggers, I don't think my dad is as youthful as your mom. But I know he does his best to be! I can't believe how grown up Kristin is!! It amazes me how much things change when one is away!

So, Suzie and Jared are in Missouri?? That isn't too far from here, considering we once lived in Texas which is massive to drive accross!! Wish them well for me!; 7:01 AM

Kendra@My Insanity said...: Hey Hope--time has flown! I think all the kids I taught in middle school have graduated and are getting married and stuff. Yes, Jared is going to be a doctor. I bet those of you that went to school with him didn't expect that. But don't worry, he hasn't lost his playful side. I think that will help him survive medical school.

Raynie,
We would be in Gila River ward if we could sell our house, but that is starting to look doubtful. I answered about the blog on your page. I hope it helps and I'm not forgetting something.

Holly,

It is sooo good to hear from you! I commented on your blog, as well. I do need a full update of what you've been up to since, say...1999. :-); 11:58 AM

Meet the Haltermans

2011 finds us as a family of six and as busy and crazy as ever. Barry continues working at Clear Creek Associates, which we consider to be a tremendous blessing, given the current state of the economy. Barry is serving in the Stake Young Men's Presidency, and I am in the ward Primary Presidency at church. Besides being busy with a new baby and his brother and sisters, I am teaching Let's Play Music Classes, and blogging about my creative endeavors at meandmyinsanity.blogspot.com. Kira (9) is enjoying drama club this year. She has read more books thank I probably have in my life. She's learning the keyboard quickly in music class. She was asked to give a speech at the ribbon cutting ceremony for the new building at her school. Trenton (6) is adjusting to 1st grade and homework. He has suddenly become an excellent reader. He has a gift for music, but not a gift for following directions. *sigh* He still plans on being a scientist and is full of all the imagination and energy that a 6 year old can have. Tessa (3) has recently taken up hairstyling. She is responsible for the short hair do she is sporting now. She loves preschool, dance class, and attending music class (even though she isn't old enough). She's a little computer addict and will play Dora all day, if we let her. She's quite the artist on paper and on walls. She likes to write "T's" for Tessa on everything. She is a sweet big sister to Alec. Alec (8 mos.) is a mover and a shaker! He is exhibiting the same determination as his siblings in learning to get around. He is really a delightful baby! My only complaint is that sleeping is at the bottom of his priority list. He loves people and makes friends wherever we go.
