Our present life

We are currently living in Manteca, California away from the cold winters of Chicago. We moved to California almost 4 years ago and started this blog in an attempt to keep in touch with our family and friends in Chicago or elsewhere. We miss everyone from the midwest but we love those who have become part of our life in California. Kevin is a teacher at Ripon Christian High. He also coaches girls volleyball and soccer and stays busy playing the sports he loves as well. Janey is a nurse 2 days a week and a mom the rest. She works at DMC on the pediatrics floor. Mason (5) and Talen (2) are growing daily and loving life! Enjoy our blog and follow us if you like!

The Christmas season was a refreshing time for the Tamelings. We spent the first week of Christmas break in California. Many of the Winters were in town and we spent alot of time catching up. Grandma Winters was very happy to see everyone and she, like everyone else, was enthralled with Mason.

We spent the night of the 23rd with the Dyk side of the family. There were so many little boys (and girl) running around that it was hard to keep track of them all. Mason ended up getting a soccer ball that he loved, but got served some humble pie when Matthew taught him how to share. All the boys ended the night by dancing with the various musical Christmas characters at the house.
