Greetings from the Horken House!!
Winter has announced itself with a bitterly cold day, but it's the perfect kind of day to get in touch with all of you. This Christmas season has been quiet for us so far, which gives Dave and I time to think about the real reason that we celebrate "Christ"-mas. God always had Jesus in mind because He knew that we were all going to need a Savior--and at just the right time, He sent the angel Gabriel to speak to Mary and Joseph about carrying out His wonderful plan for all of us. Glory to God in the highest!!
Here are some
"Snippets From The Horken House"
2016
(oldest to youngest)
Tim and Heather
Our oldest grandson--Teagon-- is a Computer Science major at UNO. We get to have
lunch with him when he has time between his studies and his job. We are just
glad to have this young man in the Omaha area.
Jade, our oldest granddaughter, graduated from high school last Spring.
She is in her first year at UNL in Lincoln. She is well
into her first year and is doing well with her studies
and with managing her college life.
Jagger loves his music. He is part of a Christian band called "Cashmere."
He and his fellow band members are involved at the
Music Conservatory. Jagger also plays in the praise and worship
band at Sunnybrook Church.
Jagger was involved in football as a freshman
in high school and also enjoys hanging out with his buddies.
(Alivia -on the left- with KaSandra, her cousin.)
Alivia enjoys her world of dance, girlfriends and family.
Dave and I were able to see her dance, which was so fun.

Eliya and Stephanie enjoying a fun moment. Eliya is a freshman in high school
and is very busy with her studies, her family and friends, and her
dedication to competitive cheer.
She also loves to give her grandpa a bad time whenever she can!
Josiah (our 8th grader) began Taekwondo last Spring and is progressing rapidly.
We are so proud of his discipline and dedication in doing his best.
Hannah (on the left) and Eliya have their eyes set on a competition at Disney World
in the Spring. Hannah likes to spend time cooking and when she's not cooking or cheering, she can be found with her nose in a book.
Dave and I enjoy playing Pickleball with friends. We are looking at an indoor
facility so we can keep it going all year round. It feels good to be active!
We wish you a very Merry Christmas
and all of God's blessings as we enter this brand new year!
Love,
Dave and Karol

P.S. If the indentions are crazy on this post and you know how to help me, I welcome your advice. It looks perfectly fine on my draft and then when I post it, they do their own thing. Not going to work on it anymore!
