We never have the time to write one of those long holiday letters telling about our year, but maybe we'll give it a try this time!

We are so busy with our three children: Annabelle (2), Joel (8), and Rebekah (5).

We began homeschooling the children this year which seems to take every possible free moment, but we are having a blast! Our house looks like a little school with artwork and projects everywhere. The children sing and dance around the house and we read all the time. Mommy is teaching Rebekah and Annabelle ballet and Joel is learning some piano. All three children are turning into artists.

We all skied this year and even little Annabelle was on skis a bit. The kids continue to love to skate, and ice skate while Mommy coaches and the whole family looks forward also to roller skating at least once a week. Everyone continues to love to swim too.

Jo Ann was very, very ill in May with pneumonia and was hospitalized. She recovered in time to enjoy summer and we hope to go skiing again this winter. To read about our ski adventures in 2001 click here.

Jo Ann's book, HOW TO JUMP AND SPIN ON IN-LINE SKATES, continues to sell. We are all enjoying seeing the publicity the book is getting on Amazon.com and at other internet stores.

Dan continues to work for Veterans Affairs and is very, very busy helping with the children and being a wonderful Daddy.

Well, best to everyone in 2002.

JO ANN, DAN, JOEL, REBEKAH, and ANNABELLE FARRIS
