Peter and I were married September 10th, 1976. We were blessed with 8 children. We began our married life in B.C., and in 2001 moved to the promised land, Thorsby, Alberta.
Farming was a way of life in our family and still is today for most of our children. Though we have moved a few miles from the farm site, Peter continues to work on the family farm. I continue to stay at home, enjoying my roles as housewife, Grandma, gopher for the farm, and Grandma-babysitter. We have been working hard with a succession planner. In 3 years time Peter hopes to step back from the farm, continuing to help the boys out at his leisure.
Mandy is married to Richard Molenaar, they have been blessed with 3 sons: Peter, 5, Evan, 3, and Michael, 1 1/2. They are also expecting another baby mid February 2011, D.V. They farm near Grande Prairie on a grain and hog operation.
Trudy lives in her home in the village of Thorsby with her dog, Bella. She continues to work on the family farm.
Jerry is married to Jessica. They have been blessed with 2 girls, Esther, almost 3, and Kara, almost 1. Jerry works on the family farm, and Jessica is working towards a degree in education.
Shelley is married to Karl Tams. They have been blessed with a son, Brodie, 7 weeks old. They have been living in Victoria where Karl has been serving in the Navy. As Karl has asked for a transfer into the Army, he will be, D.V., moving to Gagetown, New Brunswick in August to start further training. Unfortunately Shelley and Brodie will have to stay behind in Victoria during Karl's first course, and they hope to join him later in the fall.
Matthew is married to Sandra. They are expecting their first child mid September, D.V. Matthew works on the family farm.
Jennifer is married to Jan Otten. They have been blessed with a son, Jack, 7 months old. They farm close to Neerlandia, on a dairy operation.
Scott is married to Shari. They have been blessed with one son, Jayden, 5 1/2 months old. Scott is a Private serving with the PPCLI in Edmonton, but hopes to return to work on the family farm in February 2011.
Cameron lives with us at home - looking after the old folks. Cam works on the family farm.
We believe we have been blessed wonderfully with our children and grandchildren. The Lord has also blessed us on our farms. May He continue to bless us. We pray that their will always be peace on our family farm and that the Lord will continue to guide and protect us all.
God has always been faithful. Praise God!
