ANOTHER CLASSMATE JOINS THE FUN!

Carron,

I just read the class blog for the first time, I know you sent it to me last summer but for some reason I forgot all about it. What a neat way for everyone to reconnect. I am still around Anamosa . We just built a new house between Anamosa and Fairview. My husband Kevin and I have 4 kids, and 2 grandsons. Our oldest Daughter Jessi lives in Cedar Rapids, she is married to Matt and they have a son Jaxen. Holly lives is Amber is married to Cody and they also have a son , Carson. Our youngest daughter Nikki just finished collage and is back at home for a short stay (we hope). And our youngest Tanner is a junior at Anamosa HS. Kevin works for pipeline companies all over the country so he is gone most of the time working out of state. I Have a daycare business,and just started my 18th year, my daughter Holly works with me so I do get some adult conversation during the day.

I would love to hear from everyone, so feel free to give out my e-mail address which is blkelchen@aol.com.

I will send some pics as soon as I get a chance. Take care and keep in touch. And thanks for all your work on the blog.

Brenda Thomas Kelchen

Here is a picture of Brenda Thomas (left) and Sarah Osterkamp (right) last March at Disneyworld. I saw Brenda last night in Anamosa. Her hair color and style are different and she looks even more beautiful than she does in this picture! We had the nicest talk and found out that we have a good friend in common from here in Ely. It is such a small world! (Sarah, if you see this, PLEASE get in touch.)

It's time for another one of Brenda's pictures.

Here's the group on graduation day!!
