2011 News...
Landon
set a school record for highest
scoring JV basketball player in East High history (309 points) in
his Sophomore year. We’re excited about seeing what he can
accomplish this year! He trained hard over the summer in order to
run his first marathon in August, and his efforts paid off with a
second place win for his age group. He has been very busy this past
year not only with athletics but also with his job at Noodles &
Company, where he is learning valuable work ethics as well as a bit
of cash. Besides all of this he maintains a very active teenage
social life and every once in a while even does some school work. We
love you, kid!

Landon is
driving.
That’s probably
all that needs to be said but besides obtaining his driver’s license
he is also playing very competitive basketball for the East High
team and maintaining Honor Roll grades. What a truly fine young man
this kid is turning out to be. We couldn’t be more proud of him. |

2009 News...
Landon
started High School this year. It’s
been a huge transition from his small parochial school to an
enormous public high school but he’s handled it wonderfully. He is
enrolled in honors level classes and is maintaining an A average so
far. He earned his boating license this past summer and enjoyed
taking his friends out on the lake. He is still an avid basketball
player and is proud to be a part of the East High team. He follows
NCAA Basketball diligently and won, for the fourth year, the pool at
Bob’s office last year. There’s talk of banning him from
participation this year in order to give others a chance! |

2008 News..
Landon
is in his final year
of middle school. We’re already feeling slightly sad about saying
good-bye to the school where he’s spent so many good years. Last
spring he received a couple of notable academic awards, including
the 7th Grade Highest Math Award and special recognition for his
creation of an original book of poetry. Over the summer his Little
League baseball team took 2nd place in the City Championship. This
autumn he kept in shape through running with the Cross Country team
and as winter approached he took on the role of head cheerleader for
the Girl’s Volleyball team, even organizing a fan bus trip to cheer
them on for their championship game. He is smart, funny and
handsome…..just about perfect. |

2007 News...
Landon
has been discovered
by the girls! Every weekend it’s parties...dances...movies. In his
spare time he continues to keep up his good grades and compete on
his school’s basketball and volleyball teams, as well as playing
Little League baseball during the summer. Zannah worked with his 7th
grade classroom in creating a project for the annual school auction
and enjoyed seeing the creative side of her son and his classmates.
These transitional years can be
difficult and so far Landon is handling them with grace and ease.
Hurray!

2006 News...
Landon
is a smart kid who has developed a true love of learning that is positively
contagious. What a joy it is to have meaningful conversations about weighty
topics with your own child! He played Little League again this summer and
his team, the "Yankees", exhibited great teamwork and won the city
championship. In addition to this team accomplishment Landon won seven
individual academic awards in the 2005-2006 school year. Just for frosting
on the cake he and several friends won third place for their singing
performance in the school talent contest! Once again, we can’t imagine that
it would be possible to be more proud of this kid.
