Chris lives in the Sacramento area and continues to work with computer systems as both a consultant and a business owner having recently started a new company. Chris teamed up with Rob (whom he met and started working with about two years ago) to form Traction Systems, a company specializing in providing businesses with database integration, wireless capability, and full enterprise resource planning.

Launching the business and building back end systems for the new company is keeping Chris so busy he is working seven days a week.

When he does get a break from work he heads to his workshop to build something amazing. His latest project: A barbecue cart made from redwood he salvaged from raised beds in his backyard.

Tim, Kathy, Rylan, and Aubrey live in Orange County.

Last year Tim and Kathy both moved their entrepreneurial enterprises to outside the home and now rent office space only minutes away. Tim also received his insurance license and Kathy re-branded her graphic business with a new name adding more capabilities to her web and print services. Her company is called Amplify Interactive. She retains the assistance of a number of consultants which has been a big boost for her business ( especially now with the arrival of Aubrey).

Rylan continues to be as cute as can be. He turned three on July 4th, has become quite a conversationalist, and is on the verge of reading. He enjoys his little sister a great deal and is anxious to teach her how to walk, talk and play with him.

Aubrey is adorable, sweet, and calm. These are her mother's words and when you meet Aubrey, you will totally agree!

Tim and Kathy now have a new dog. With the loss of Apollo in January 2007, Sadie joined the family the following March.. Sadie is a Greater Swiss Mountain Dog who thinks she is still a six-month-old puppy as evidenced by her high level of energy and desire to play.
