Jennifer provides a Robert-Tom-Joe update:

Michael has been employed with CTS here in Houston for the last 2 ˝ years as their Systems Analyst/Data Center Manager. Prior to CTS, we ran our own computer/network business for almost 4 years. For fun, Michael has been learning a bit of Php programming and has done a bit of web design for one of my clients (the site isn’t online yet as we’re still finishing it up).

I am currently a stay-at-home mommy, but also have a part-time bookkeeping company on the side. My 2 clients keep me very busy, so I feel like a chicken with my head cut-off most of the time! But, I left the security industry in 2000, right after having Alex (so you can remove that picture and the website link since they are no longer in business). I am also the Membership & Finance Coordinator for a local MOPS group (www.mops.org is the main site; www.trinitymops.org is our group’s site), but will be passing the baton, so to speak, within the next month or so. Oh yeah, one of my former positions found me as a bridal coordinator, so I’m currently helping a friend out by working a few bridal shows over the next few weeks – just because I didn’t think I was busy enough! As for the kiddos, Alex is 8 years old and currently attending the 2nd grade; Morgann is now 5 and finishing up Pre-K; Ian is 3 and will be starting preschool next year! None of the kids are currently involved in any extra-curricular activities since we have a hard time catching ourselves coming or going, but they spend lots of time jumping on the trampoline that Gma Segulja bought for them last year and playing with our next door neighbors (all their same ages – such a blessing!). Nothing very exciting, I know, but at least it would give you some updated info on us J Feel free to modify the verbage as needed – or don’t use it at all – whatever!

As for Carrie, you should email her to get the full-story, but she & Jorge have been dating for at least 6 months? Like I said, she is not engaged, but he’s a really great guy! Over the last 6 months, Carrie has done some traveling as a Physical Therapist, first to the Boston area for 3 months, then to McKinney, TX for the last 3 months. This weekend she is packing up and moving to Florida – I have no idea where in FL, but I’m sure she’ll see plenty of sun & surf while there. After that, not sure where she will be going. Not even sure she’ll do much more traveling. But, like I said, you should try emailing her for an update – just hold your breath that she’ll email back anytime soon J In case you need it, her email address is river46_4@yahoo.com.

Bob & Chris are still Bob & Chris – Bob is working and still has his window coverings business, while Chris helps him with office work. She is also very involved at Victory Christian Center (their church). They actually just left (and took Alex) to go help Carrie with her move this weekend – they are helping her to get packed up, but not making the drive to FL. You could email Chris at cmsegulja@yahoo.com to see if she’ll send you updated info.

Ok, hope this helps you somewhat! I couldn’t even begin to tell you what is going on with Joe & Kathy or Tom & Diane and their families, other than to say that Mary Kathryn (Joe’s oldest daughter) just had her first baby, Matthew Segulja (Tom’s son) is near Houston on a job – I think! – and Doug (Tom’s son) is living in New York – I think he’s still in school, studying architecture if I’m not mistaken.
