Looking forward to the coming year, Andrew will finish out his sophomore year at high school, as well as his 2014-15 hockey season. Then in the fall he'll start his junior year (and, presumably, the 2015-16 hockey season). I am sure he'll be attending a few school dances this year - but whether it's with a girl or not, we'll have to wait and see. Also, Andrew will start driving with his permit in early 2015 and then in August, when he turns 16, he'll get his official driver's license. Yikes! (maybe time to get a job too?)
Abby will finish her freshman year of college this year at KSU, hopefully work a lot this coming summer, and then start back up with college again in the fall as she continues her fashion design/merchandise education. Next year she'll be living in off-campus apartments with three of her girlfriends. They sound pretty swanky too - they'll all have their own bedrooms and bathrooms, a community pool, a rec room, a theatre room, a computer room ... definitely not like my college years at all.
Karen continues her ninth (or is tenth?) year at Woodbine Products this year; while I will enter my first full year with my new company, Logistcs Plus, where I am looking forward to launching a new website and helping them grow. Other then that, I'm sure there will be some baseball stadiums and vacations in the mix - just not sure where exactly yet (somewhere warm sounds pretty good right now). I'm also looking forward to my annual poker fest tournament with "the guys," while I'm sure Karen and the kids are looking forward to their annual July trip to "the Ott cabin."
Whatever lies ahead, we wish all of our family and friends the very best in 2015 - happy New Year!
