After spending a year and a half at DMLC I realized that being a WELS teacher or pastors wife was not what I was meant to do for the rest of my life. I transferred to Concordia St Paul where, coincidently, my now husband was a student. I got my BS in early childhood education and Tom, our daughter Megan and I moved to Northfield where I took a job teaching preschool. We moved to Fargo two years later with one more daughter Eliza. I couldn't find a job there so I went to Moorhead state and finished my elementary ed degree. In 1997 we moved to Tom's hometown of Elbow Lake and bought the local hardware store now named Project Central Hardware and Rental.I stayed home with my girls until they were both in school and then started working part time at the store. I have been working full time for a few years running the store and Tom is working at the family John Deere dealerships. Megan is now almost 16 and Eliza is 13. I have been on the school board for 3 years and hope to make it through one more election so I can hand diplomas to my daughters. If anyone is up in Lakes Country please let me know, it is always fun to leave town for a day.

Hey all.... After much nagging from Katie I am going to give a brief update of myself.

Ok where do I begin? After shopping around my talents to all (yes, including the expansion) of the NBA teams for my outstanding 3 point skills, I was finally forced to find a real line of work. It seems like nobody wanted to sign a 5'8" white boy to the team.

For the last 13 years I have been living in the Chicagoland area. I, like Mr. Marrier, found a girl over the internet. We have two kids, Rachel (23) and Arthur (17). We also have a beautiful granddaughter named Isabella and she just turned 2. So you are all now probably doing the math in your head and wondering how this is possible. I am sure the smarts ones will have figured out that these are my step children and that I did not have my first kid when I was 14 (or did I just live a secret life?).

I have been a truck driver now for the last 14 years and am currently working at a company that is only 1/2 mile from my house. I know I know, I suck. If I wasn't so lazy I could walk to work, but needless to say my gas expense is very little.

Hopefully one day I will make it to a professional poker player, but for now I don't have the bankroll to do it. Though it is a work in progress.

And that is a short update of what I am up to.

Hello 1989 Grads!!!

I thought I'd take some time to update you about my family and me. I went to college at Inver Hills Community College and UW-River Falls. I graduated with a BS Degree in Elementary Education. While at River Falls I met my husband, Rob, who also graduated with a BS Degree in Education (Science). We married in the summer of 1996 and soon afterwards moved to cheese country: Green Bay. We both taught there, but then decided to move back to MN in 1999 to be closer to both of our family's. We decided to move to Lake City which is 15 miles southeast of Red Wing. Rob currently teaches middle school science in Lake City. I taught in Rochester for one year, but then was hired in Lake City at the elementary school. I decided to hang up my teaching hat and just be "Mom" for awhile. I am currently on a 3-year leave from my job. My days are filled, though, taking care of my three sons: Ben is 6, Sam is 4, and Tom is 1 1/2. I also do daycare in my home for other children as well. Life is never boring at my house!! If it ever does get boring, I savor those few moments because I know craziness can be around any corner.
