COACH




Currently Jason is the coach of Caitlyn's 5 & 6 year old soccer team. Jason truly amazes me every time I see him coach his team. I have never known anyone to be as kind and patient as he is. I get a smile on my face every game as he encourages the team to do their best. Even if most of the girls avoid the ball the whole time or the boys run the ball to the wrong goal Jason will still say "nice try" and give them a high five. So regardless of the fact that our team hasn't won a game yet, each child goes away having had a good time because they did their best...Way to go Coach! -Tiffany

Tough Love




Jase certainly loves his little brother Brandt...however, he loves him a little too much at times. Because of this Brandt spends his days locked in my room or guarded by the rest of us. Here are a few photos of Jase "helping" Brandt.

A new brother



Because we waited to find out what we were having the kids didn't know until they came to the hospital whether they had a new brother or sister. When we told them it was a boy the girls were so excited because Jase would have a buddy. It was so fun to see the look on their faces as they met Brandt for the first time...Priceless!

Pictures of Brandt!!!




Yea!!! We finally are able to add pictures to our blog! So here he is, Brandt Tessem Benedict!
