hi from Pella

Hello everyone,

I have not written on the blog for a long time, so thought I should do it once again. Sad to say, but I really don't have much news to share. :)

We are having beautiful fall weather here these past weeks and Den and I enjoy our long walks down at Red Rock Dam on the Sunday afternoons that we are around.

Jody and Shane keep busy with work, Shane's class and coed volleyball games. They are gone this weekend for a mini vacation, so I hope the weather cooperates and is nice for them. They came up to see Jana play vb at Sioux Falls a number of weeks ago, so that was really nice to see them again.

Scott is keeping busy with work, class and coaching soccer and now flag football. Their soccer team never won a game last year and this year they won 4, tied 2 and lost 1, so that was a nice improvement. His flag football team won all three of their games last weekend and they have another game this next Tuesday. We get to see him once in awhile when we stop in on our way to or from Jana's games at Dordt, so that's nice.

We are keeping pretty busy going to Jana's vb games and we've enjoyed seeing some of you at them. They are having a good year with a record of 25-5 (I think). Jana is busy with vb, class and took on a work study job as a Teacher's Assistant in the Psych department, so she does not have a lot of spare time.

Den and I have nothing planned tonight, so we are going on a "date" to Des Moines to watch a movie. Should be fun and relaxing.

Well....take care.

Arla
