Family Updates

A few weeks ago I asked if the [Ken] Feyen's had any family updates they wanted to share. Aunt Joan sent me the following picture and Kendra sent me an e-mail as well. Here are a few of the updates:

-I [Kendra] have started competitive cheer and have recovered from the broken finger.

-Trent has started basketball, and the boys obviously are done with football/soccer until the spring.

-Right now the boys' lives are consumed with hunting.

I also know that Uncle Ken and Aunt Joan's 20th Anniversary is coming up and we [the Prichard's] are extremely looking forward to the end of December because the Feyen's are planning on coming out and visiting us for five days!

Maybe if we pressure them enough we'll persuade them to get a blog too!

a baby is born

On November 1st, 2008, Jon, Juanita and family welcomed little Anna Ruth Grabel into the world at 11:01 P.M. She weighed 7 pounds 0 ounces and was 20 inches long.

Aunt Mary-Jo arrived to help this past wednesday, and will stay at the Grabel's house for roughly 12 more days. She also wanted everyone to know that she's sorry for not calling anyone about the birth. When she talked to me on the phone she said they are all doing well, everyone is extremely excited, and little Anna couldn't be healthier.
