Here we will tell you a little about each of our precious little Rug Rats.......... (Takes a little while to load, please be patient, thanx)
Tanya
Tanya is Mechille's daughter and Jeff's red-headed step-daughter (he love's that one). She is a 17 year old. She is a working woman now. Same place Jeff got his start at McDonald's. Look close for red hair in your fries...lol. She is your typical teenager, loves the telephone and the couch (normally at the same time). Her favorite past time is picking on her brother. Well eating is in there with picking on her brother. Her favorite subjects are Lunch and Make-Up. When she graduates, she wants to become a photographer with hopes of someday owning her own studio. She has a lot of hard work ahead of her to accomplish that dream, but sometimes dreams do come true, keep trying Tanya. Since she was raised in Washington, she speaks too darn fast for Jeff to understand her sometimes, you know like "Gag me with a spoon, man"
Tanya is graduating this school year (is mom ready for this???)!!!! Here are a couple of her graduation pictures. I have to admit, she is a very pretty young lady :) :) :)
David
David is Mechille's son. He is 12 years old. He absolutely loves baseball. He is on a little league team in our community. His favorite team is the Seattle Mariners. He is always imitating Randy Johnson, MVP in the 2001 world series. Maybe he will become an all star and play for the Mariners and then he can support us : ) His favorite subjects are math and reading. He is getting tired of his sister picking on him and is slowly starting to get her back. Watch out Tanya, one of these days he will be bigger than you!!! Keep eating them Wheaties David.

Vanessa
Vanessa is Jeff's girl. She and her brother live in Germany with their mother. They have been there since Nov 1995. Vanessa is 13 yrs old. She is fluent in German and English. She loves anything to do with Barbie (dad has started collecting them and now he is hooked) Her likes are Pizza, Pop Music (I call it rap but they don't), Brittney Spears (now there is something Dad likes too...lol), Mitch got her and Kevin into Beanie Babies, and her dream is to become a rich gal. Another hope of support in my ole age.... Oh and she loves her daddy's home made Butterfinger ice cream....Vanessa is a daddy's girl even though we are miles apart. Vanessa, daddy loves and misses you very much pumpkin.
Kevin
Kevin is Jeff's son. He is 9 yrs old. He is fluent in German but is not as fluent in English. Since he went to Germany at an early age, and goes to a German school, it is understandable. He can understand and speak some English when he wants to. He loves any type of legos or hotwheels and BUGS. (then again which boy don't) His first time fishing was with us in Alabama. He loved it so much that when he went back to Germany, he made a fishing pole out of anything and "fished" off the balcony...."Air-Fishing"...LMAO. Kevin, daddy loves and misses you also very much.
Below are some pictures from when Vanessa and Kevin came over from Germany this past summer. They had a blast and did not want to go back home to mom. Made their daddy real sad to hear that....Hope you enjoy these pictures half as much as Mechille and I enjoyed having them here with us once again...We miss and love you Vanessa and Kevin....
