Merry Christmas 2017

Christmas Greetings from all of us in Minnesota!


Jay continues building his business with Edward Jones in Zimmerman.  This is his 5th year with the firm.  His amazing work efforts earned us a trip to the Mediterranean this summer!  Our favorite spot was the beach at Villefranche, France where we swam in the Sea.  He is a trainer for Level New FAs just entering their career with EJ.  He is Chamber of Commerce President.  He continues to root for all his favorite Chicago sports teams.

Beautiful Villefranche


Brooke continues to homeschool both boys, keeping her busy all week long.  The house is never clean, but at least the kids are getting an education!  She occasionally fills in for Jay's assistant when needed at the office.  She coordinated the local Edward Jones Christmas party this year for the amazing Region 303.  She enjoyed an early winter photo shoot, taking pictures of the kids for this year's holiday blog.

And now for the kids in photo form:
