New Years


McKee Family - 2013

Abbey has been swimming with the Santa Barbara Swim Club and spending a lot of time in the Los Baños pool this past summer and fall.  Not only is she getting really fit, she has begun to have an athlete’s attitude about exercise and health that is way cool.  She is also quite the musical theater fan and spends a lot of her free time listening to show tunes, so it was very exciting for her to make it into La Colina Jr. High’s 2014 spring show, Oklahoma!

Jack built himself a computer this summer that he spends a lot of time on when he isn’t riding his bike around with friends or has his nose in a book.  As soon as we get his uniform in order, he will get to the rank of Star in the Boy Scouts.  He had another great    season of water polo out at DPHS this fall and endured the DPHS swim team last spring. 

Kevin took most of his 60 DPHS AVID students on a college tour to the San Francisco Bay Area last spring that was a wild success and has been very busy this fall helping them all apply for college. This December he hit double nickels and now is an official old fart who refuses to use his senior citizen discounts.   

I, Jana, still run miles and miles mostly in the dark of morning and am getting better about not doing school work into the dark of night. I have a new mom-taxi route to Los Baños pool this year too that is much more fun now that the beater van is no more and I am instead driving in Subaru style. This December, I ran a 3:27:11 in the CIM Marathon.  Throughout that whole race I kept thinking”How am I doing this?”” I am really doing this!“ Yes, I did it!  I am still smiling.

Winnie, our 3 year old forever-puppy, has turned into a good pooch who sleeps her way through the day if she is run good and hard in the morning.
