    Message: Hi everyone! A lot has changed since my last post which was over ten years ago, so I wanted to give you a little update. Can you believe it, it's been 22 years since highschool? Life moves fast, but it's been a blast! I'm married to my one true love, Jacques Lavoie (who I've been secretly in love with since high school lol). Life is always an adventure and exciting with him. I've never been happier. We have two children (Jayce who is 6 and Seaira who is 2). They're exactly like their father in every way btw. My other boys are growing up fast as well. Angus is now 14 and Reid is 18! God, I could be a grandma soon. lol We also have 2 wiener dogs (Lucy and Linus). Anyway, Jacques and I are both artists, but I'm a hygienist by day. I hope to open up my own clinic some day. Jacques is an entrepreneur and runs his own business. I could go on, but you should check us out on facebook.

And as far as my profession, well I recently graduated as a Multimedia Specialist and I'm currently finishing my degree in Dental Hygiene. I'll eventually move back to Thompson, so I hope to see some of you there. Take care and Lots of hugs

My wife Lacy works for a Marketing firm in North Bay and our two oldest children attend an all french school in Sturgeon Falls. I finally live on a lake. I manage to keep in touch with quite a few people from back in the day and wish everyone happiness and health in the future.

My life in a nutshell - I finally finished school in 96, then moved out to Brandon to be with my sweetie (Mike). We got married in July 97 and I started teaching that fall. I teach High School Math (big surprise) and I really love it. But you will never guess who my boss is... Ms. Michaels! Talk about life coming full circle, and after 14 years, she still looks exactly the same! We had Carmen in May 2000, so she is now a very busy 2 year old. Please visit her web site at www.babiesonline.com/babies/d/dmfont and drop me a line anytime! I also know the whereabouts of quite a few other former classmates and teachers who haven't posted yet, but live around here.

    Message: April 27, 2003 - Time to update my comments. My son is now 20 months old and keeps me busy. I'm expecting our 2nd baby this summer and am looking forward to being home again. When Colten was 6 months old I was offered a new position at a different agency. Seeing as it's management I decided to take it even though I had 6 months mat leave left. I'm still working with people with disabilities however in a different capacity. I heard from quite a few people after my last posting and was able to renew some "lost" friendships. I look forward to hearing from you!
