Trask Family Update

>>2017<<

Dad: Still working at Springfield Freightliner. Got his shop finished this year and loves working in it! He is currently working on a Model A Roadster, as well as adding on a bedroom/moving the laundry room out on our house for more space. Always staying busy!

Mom: Working hard at her Plexus business: it is the perfect thing for her considering her love of health and nutrition. Her and I got to see the ocean (Oregon coast) for the first time this year and it was beautiful. She remodeled her kitchen with help from Dylan and we all love how it turned out.

Ashley {22}: I began working at McDonalds in January, it has been an interesting year. I enjoyed my trip out west with Mom, so many adventures. Seven new states were checked off of my list.

Dylan {18}: Bought a blazer that needed work, flipped it, and sold it. Continuously does cool stuff to his truck to make it more and more awesome. He helps Dad out a lot with his side jobs at home, although recently he has needed to recover from a major chest surgery and he is healing well from that.

Paige {13}: Is taller than me now even though she is nine years younger than me! She has grown so much this year. She is 31% fluent in French, crochets anything you could possibly imagine, faithfully practices her violin; therefore plays it beautifully, and still desires to become a midwife/missionary in Africa when she gets older.

Joshua {12}: This guy knows all there is to know about dinosaurs. He still wants to be a paleontologist and plans on opening up his own museum when he grows up. He had a blast helping Dad and his brothers build a treehouse in our front yard this year.

Levi {10}: 24/7 he has one thing on his mind: hunting. He is very knowledgeable on the subject and cannot wait to hunt himself. He loves to go hiking in our woods, go on bike rides, and help out at our neighbor's place-all with his brothers (they're best buds and do everything together)!

Elias {8}: Is a cowboy-wanna-be except for he doesn't like cows! He loves white horses, is interested in taxidermy, and has quite the pocket knife collection. He has really taken off with his reading this year and enjoys it more now.

Caden {7}: Always keeps us entertained with his funny expressions and the things he says! He loves to play with his baby brother, but also keeps up with his big brothers. He stood up in front of our whole church and told a long story he had made up into the microphone at "Talent Night" - brave boy…I can really see him being a preacher someday!

Rylan {5}: Him and Lilliana are best friends. They take turns playing with dolls, trucks, and everything in between. He loves to try and make up jokes and then will laugh hysterically at himself. He is always trying to be a helper. He also loves the pet hamster he got this year named Ranger and takes such good care of him.

Lilliana {3}: Lilli is all girl - pink, princesses, pink, frills, pink, bows, pink, dresses, pink, anything sparkly, and anything…pink! She is growing her bangs out, can count up to thirteen, sings the alphabet, loves watching "Strawberry Shortcake", and likes eating PINK frosted donuts.

Micah {1}: This little guy is walking all over the place, as well as trying to climb everything in sight. His red hair has lightened and is becoming more blonde. He likes to give hugs and kisses, clap, and wave bye-bye. He already has high levels of sass and is quite the handful, but he is super fun and has the most adorable cheesin' smiley face.

Happy New Year to everyone! We hope that 2018 is a blessed year for you all!

With love,

The Trasks
