LTF Kids Fun Run, Ukulele Club, and Family Pics

Hofhiens Family 2010

Notice that in our last family picture (on the sidebar) Afton still had short hair. It has been a while. We had a "down and dirty" photo shoot - 15 minutes and done. Everyone was still smiling even after the pictures!
Mike's Ukulele club - at first I thought he just went for the free barbeque, but on second thought, he seems to fit right in...Coree will be proud with Mike's new passion for the ukulele!



And below: The Lifetime Fitness Kid's Fun Run. Jake ran 1 mile and Afton trotted 3/4 of a mile.
Half the fun was the silly spray!

OK, your family picture is beautiful, and the Ukulele club?? Glad Mike found a good hobby! :)


Quick thoughts

So I'm finally up with the times and have my own blog. You'd think if someone was a "webmaster" that they might be current with a full family history...

Now I'm frantically searching my mind for all those clever things my kids did and all those life changing thoughts that would really help all who read my little blog. Nothing.

Just two quick stories about both kids. Maybe then I can feel at ease knowing that my children's lives are adequately documented.

Jake has always been interested in numbers. He loves to ask random people (fellow shoppers at Wal-Mart, those who happen to stop next to us at a red light, etc) what their address is. Finally Jake discovered his life calling when we went through the Wal-Greens drive thru to pick up a prescription. Jake decided he would like to be the teller asking people for their address to verify their getting the correct prescription. We are in the process of getting him a store job application right now.

Afton has profound moments when I realize just how fast she is growing up. This week she saw a little girl walking with just her mom. She pointed at the little girl and said "Ohhh, that little girl doesn't have a brother." Let's just hope she always appreciates that she has a big brother!
