Here's Ben playing his sax back in April.
Don't know when I'll hear him play again,
but it won't be in a tux, that's for sure.
Currently, his sax is in its case in my
storage unit, and I am holding his Louis
Armstrong Jazz Award until he picks it up!

Just wanted to add a pic from late summer, just after school started up again. We were on our way to St. Armand's with Andy & Jean. This is Niles' bearded tough guy look! This week, Jean's kindergarten class sent their names to be matched up with my 12th grade honor students. It was funny to see my seniors grabbing up the little kids' names (and identities) just like they did last year. Gotta take a group pic of the class tomorrow so that the little people can see who they are writing to!

Can't believe that the time has flown so quickly since Jordan and Jenny were married! And now they will be parents in the spring, too! It was a beautiful day, and a sweet, wonderful service and reception. I prayed for many years for Jordan to find a perfect girl to complement him, and Jenny is certainly an answer to those prayers! I wish I could be closer to them, especially when little Standridge baby comes into the picture!

BOO! This bad boy is all cooked up and ready to be made into a pie and bread!
