Ahhhh the park

Oma and I took the kids to a park in McMinnville and had a wonderful time. We had two of our nieces join us as well, Kristen and Sydney. The weather was nice and sunny...it was a little too hot, but there were a lot of great big trees to provide wonderful shade.

Poor Kraig has had to miss out on a lot of time with the family now that he is going to school. For those of you that don't know...Kraig will be losing his job in June 2010, and the Freightliner plant is to finish relocating to Mexico. Fortunately, the employees will qualify for NAFTA retraining and Kraig is going to go to nursing school. It is a job that he has wanted to do for a very long time. His interests were renewed when the boys and I had so much hospital time last year. He thinks that he might like to work in the NICU, imagine that...a big 6'2" guy handling little tiny preemies...too cute!! He certainly has a lot to offer...a wealth of experience. He will be a great nurse wherever he decides to work. Kraig is doing great with his studies and is getting excellent grades!!! We are very proud of him.
