Weekly Email

Hi Mom and Dad,

Another busy week under our belts.

The big event of the week was Theresa's big charity gala for Glory Community at the Arvada Center.  She was introducing Susan St. James and Dick Ebersol - as the church lady.  She was great.  It was a quick 3 minutes but a lot of fun.  Mark Randall (former KU grad and Denver Nuggets ambassador) was the emcee.  There was a cash bar, silent auction, fancy dinner, inspirational talk by Susan and fun olympic stories from Dick.  Dick's favorite olympic moment was Muhammed Ali lighting the torch in Atlanta.  We had a quick chat with Susan at the end of the evening.  They were heading with their good friend Mo Siegel (founder of Celestial Seasonings - Susan was an original investor in the company).  I mentioned Larry Potter's condo and business dealings in Telluride.  She remembered Larry well and said to let him know she was still alive and kicking!


We've had great weather this week.  Today was gorgeous.  I went for a 2 hour/40 mile bike ride today.

Megan had a lot of fund raising to do for cheer squad.  She sold 35 coupon cards for $20 each ($700 total) last week.  She got new cheer shoes today. That's just the beginning to the uniform.  Sometime soon they get fitted for their uniforms.  I don't even know how much that will cost :-)

Chloe has been taking ACT practice tests.  I think she is taking the actual test on Tuesday.  She wrote down UofA and KU for colleges she might be interested in.  Prom is next week.  Still sorting out the details for that.

I signed up for a leadership conference that will be simulcast from Atlanta to our church on May 4th.  It's the Chik fil A leadercast.  With folks like Tim Tebow, Soledad O'Brian, Patrick Lencioni, Marcus Buckingham, John Maxwell, Urban Meyer, etc.  I'm looking forward to it.

We are still making plans for Ken & Mona's 50th.  I think we are trying to find flights out Thursday night and return Sunday night.  We might find a hotel to stay at just so we are all crowded into their house.  Kevin and Charlie should be there too.

Well - that's all I know.

luv u,

Jeff
