Ryan and
Jen celebrated forty years of marriage this year. They've both now retired and are enjoying the extra time spent with hobbies and visiting with their growing family!
Erin and
Marc celebrated their fifteen wedding anniversary--marked by a party planned solely by their oldest two daughters.
Matt and
Ellie were a little worried when
Ellie got pregnant again when the twins were four, but they settled down when doctors confirmed that, in fact, there was only one baby. Raising
Teddy was so much easier than two babies that
Matt and
Ellie decided to do it again--baby
Gavin was born two years later.
Matt and
Ellie are still living in England, with no plans to return to the US full time.
Aaron and
Colleen had a little boy two years ago, who they named
Shaun. They are both still living locally, and
Aaron is set to "inherit" the dojo when the head sensei retires next year (the man is pushing eighty, at least, and is still teaching).
Joey and
Jane are still married, much to everyone's surprise, though they've been through some rough patches.
Joey is still in the Navy--he renewed his original contract a few years ago, but
Janie was upset about that because it meant more traveling for both of them, which is hard with a young family. They now have four little ones under the age of six.
