The Cole Family 2008
Justin - Sheri - Terry - Jennie - Michelle
Terry has enjoyed the stability of his job as a Captain with the Boise City Fire Department, which new schedule of 48 hours on and 4 days off has given him a lot days home to enjoy with the family and other activities. He has introduced Justin to the fun of bird hunting this year and they have spent many hours together with the dogs roaming the fields and hills looking for pheasants and other wild game. He has become a Health Advisor this year and is enjoying helping people get healthy. He keeps busy at church teaching the Youth Sunday School kids ages 14-17 and has up to 20 kids in class each week, including Michelle and Jennie.
Sheri has loved her year of being a full time mom trying to keep up with all the kids' activities. She keeps involved volunteering in Justin's classroom as Art Mom teaching the 5th graders the joy of art. She continues to use her artistic talents in her Window Decorating & Advertising Business painting many businesses around the valley during the year, and sprucing up the town especially during the holidays. After years and years in Young Women's with the girls, this year Sheri has learned the blessing of teaching the sweet little spirits in Nursery. It has been quite a change, but one she has grown to love.
Jennie is 17 years old and has quite the social life. Dating and friends have become a large part of Jennie's daily routine as a Junior at Rocky Mountain High School. She had a wonderful time at her first High School Homecoming this fall. She has continued to play tennis almost every day and is looking forward to the tennis season in the Spring. She works hard to maintain her straight A's in school and still manages to send and receive over 10,000 texts per month. Her favorite class this semester is Anatomy where they are dissecting pigs! ewww! She is hoping this class will help her on the way to becoming a dental hygienist which is her goal after high school. She got her own car over the summer and has enjoyed the new freedom of driving wherever she wants to go.
Michelle is a Sophomore in high school this year and is 15. She too has a lot of friends here in Meridian and keeps up with her many friends in Boise with regular visits. Drama and acting have become a big interest in Michelle's life this year, and has become her "thing." She got great ratings at the District Drama Competition where she and a friend performed in a humorous ensemble which had the audience rolling. She has multiple parts in the high school play this December and is excited to try out for the Spring play "The Music Man." She has also been able to hold onto a 4.0 GPA despite the fact that she will spontaneously break into foreign accents often and sing songs from famous Musicals continuously throughout the day. Michelle's creativity also comes out in her piano playing as she keeps our house full of music and plays beautifully.
Justin is a big fifth grader in his last year of grade school. He graduated from Cub Scouts and has become a Boy Scout this year, where he has enjoyed learning many things. He is a member of the student council and tried out and was accepted into the Paramount Bell Choir, which all the kids want to be in once they reach 5th grade. His favorite hobbies include playing tennis, reading, computer and creating bionicles. He is extremely interested in art and likes to draw pictures all day. Justin earned his hunting license this year, and looks forward to going hunting with his dad, and will even skip school to do it! He has many friends and is famous for being the "nicest boy in his class." He wants me to put in that his favorite animals are sea turtles, owls, and bats.
