Super-quick rundown

Ben: Graduated with his MBA from Purdue.  We all took a family vacation across the country before settling down in Indiana.  Bought a house.  Now works for The Dow Chemical Company in their Agrosciences division. 

Allison: Had a baby and is working on managing a household of five.  Feel free to send us any advice.  At least her kids are cute.

Adele (5.5): Started school, had her first dance recital.  Adjusting well to Kindergarten, and is all set to marry a kid named Tanner.

Alex (4): Hangs out with mom, loves storytime and digging in his “working spot” (aka dirt hole), and has some great one-liners.

Caleb (10 mos): Was supposed to be a girl, and surprised us all.  Best surprise we ever had!  Crawls around munching on board books and stray goldfish crackers.  Lives the good life, roaming free, home on the range.

We love you all!  Merry Christmas!  The Crocketts
