The Collier Family

Lynn, John, Ken and Ellyn Collier live in 0N667 Courtney Lane (gray house with the two white pillars).

Ellyn is in kindergarten at Pleasant Hill Elementary and is in Mrs. Lane's PM class. She likes to read, do pretend play and act silly. Ellyn was born in May, 1998.

Ken attends second grade at Pleasant Hill Elementary and is Miss Bending's class. He likes to read and play computer games. Ken is especially fond of the ''Harry Potter'' books. Ken was born in July, 1996.

Lynn is currently a stay-at-home mom (when she isn't running the kids around in the van). In a previous life, she was an actuary at CNA insurance in Chicago. Lynn enjoys reading, weaving, and strategy board games (such as ''Settlers of Catan''). She is an active member of ''Mothers and More'' and has helped run the ''Mothers and More'' children's clothing and toy resale for the last several years. Lynn was born in June, 1963.

John was formerly a software engineer at Lucent Technologies (he got laid off in November, 2003, so if you know about a job lead, please contact him). He enjoys reading science fiction books and science magazines. He also likes strategy board games and occasionally collects comic books. John was born in January, 1959, so he wins the award as the oldest person in the house.

We have two Siamese cats - Ben and Jerry.

The entire family (minus the cats) likes to go camping during the summer.

Please stop by and say ''hello!'' some time.
