2010 Manz Christmas Letter
Greetings All!
Greetings All!
This Christmas Season finds the Manz Family in very much the same state as last year, Iowa Northern Minnesota this summer as a warm up to longer, more challenging escapades, the travails of which we hope to recount in future Christmas Letters.
Trinity continues to demand constant attention, leaving a trail of carnage everywhere in her wake. Makes me wonder what it will be like when she starts dating. When she’s not reaching for knives on the kitchen counter or pressing her face to the fireplace glass, she enjoys having us fish in her mouth (she’s got teeth!) for foreign objects that might constrict her airways. Adam loves creating totally epic floods in the sandbox and playing with trains, cars, airplanes, boats, and trailers of any kind. He’s in Pre-Cool, as he calls it. Kelly has yet to graduate from Kindergarten, but she’s already embarrassed by the random lunchtime appearance of Daddy at her school. Leah enjoys dance and cheerleading classes and the spotlight.
Anne and I will celebrate 10 years together on June 23, 2011. On that day, we hope to slip in a quick supper at Sister Sarah’s in nearby Algona, and return home as soon as possible so we don’t have to pay the babysitter extra. It’s been a great ten years and I couldn’t have imagined finding a more lovely and amazing wife than Anne.
