As you all probably have gotten the little card I made, Matt graduates today (June 22nd). What a quick 2 years it has been. Even Matt is in disbelief that it is done... for the most part. He has gotten through the basic automotive training, the Ford FACT (Ford Accelerated Credential Training) program, was top of his class 4 times earning SOC (student of the course) pins, and has obtained four ASE (Automotive Society of Engineers) certificates. Now he receives and Associates in Automotive Engineering and knowledge of the automotive industry from the best auto tech school in the nation.
He will work full time for the next week then he will take a much deserved month off. (He has been working part time and going to school year-round since August of 2005, gone 13 hours a day) He will start up the Volvo Safe program in August 2007, upon completion he is guaranteed a job, somewhere in the United States, although we have no idea where that will be yet.
He has worked hard, just as hard as any college student, if not harder. He maintained a 4.0 grad point average the whole time. I am bursting with pride to you all about his accomplishments. I hope that you are as proud of him as I am.

Update from Up North

Hi to all. the bear is pretty adorable. Not as cute as the guy in the T shirt video. Wow what a flashy car!! What kind is it? Now we will not be able to keep track of where she is or where she is going! As of her sister I think this wedding stuff has finally gotten to her. She's over the edge with what to do and what to wear, but she seems to be enjoying the moments leading up to the big event. Hopefully we will all live thru the actual day. Say.. who was that attractive girl standing next to Martin in the photo?? Martin you look sharp in your new suit. Did you have fun at the dance? Did you dance? We've been busy cutting the grasses around the gallery, putting on our first exhibition, Keeping up with meetings and Dan's new project that is stalled by the building permit process right now, and getting outfit ready for the BIG DAY in July and the other rather warm days before and after. I've found plates and napkins for the Ladies Luncheon and I'm working on the invitations now. I will send Diane a sample soon. Think about food to eat that day. AP

From the One Act Plays at Gull Lake. Marty played a bear. A very funny play. I wished you all could have seen it.

Which Necklace?

Saturday, May 05, 2007

the anitique necklace I bought... I really love this necklace but it might be too much
The back of the necklace I made I need to make shorter. Oh and this is some of my pudge that Sukie insisted on pinching...
This is the front of last necklace.
close up of the tiara.
The other necklace I made the H fell off the center.
So what do you guys think? I can't decide.

The New Car


Matt's Aunt Jenny

Monday, April 30, 2007




This is the link to their story and what happend when they sorted through emotional "clutter". It was strange seeing people we know and are related to on Oprah. They have a sad story but it was good closure for the entire family. I never got a chance to meet Jake but I have met Jenny, Steve and Linc and they are incredible people. I hope you got a chance to see this episode, at least check out the link.


Jewelry and an early wedding gift

Sunday, April 22, 2007





Well I got some antique jewelry a while back to wear when I am home in MI for the reception or maybe at the wedding but it is fun and shiny. And you all know how I like shiny. The hair clips are my some thing blue. I gave Shannon purple ones like it. Also Matt got me a Barbie. He doesn't know it but it is wearing my dress. I think it is wonderful! My tiara is sitting at the base of the doll with one of 4 necklaces I made myself.

Nice photo of you two. It looks like a tropical backdrop. good job. Dan took me to Er on 4/19. I had gotten back home after seeing my mom and about 915pm I suddenly had s sharp intense pain on my rt. flank. I took a couple of motrin and felt nauseated, cold sweats, then hot. I woke UD up to take me into ER. I could hardly breathe the pain was so intense. They gave me a cocktail mix of medicine which took away the pain and the shaking and a CAT scan confirmed that I had stones in my rt.kidney pelvis. They couldn'y see any moving at the time, but pain comes only when they move. We were back home by 2am and I slept ans snored all night. Dan got very little sleep. I have a script so that if the pain does return I can use the pills instead of ER. Nothing dull about our life in the quiet village. Ap

Here's the offical picture!
