Merry Christmas


We are thankful for many things this year as we look back and see all the blessings that have taken place. We are in a new city with a new job with a new member of our family. These are blessings that we will cherish this next year as we look at life's challenges. We want to wish everyone a wonderful Holiday season as we celebrate with the rest of the world the birth or our Savior Jesus Christ. We are grateful for the sacrifices he made for each one of us. We know that as we continue to have faith in him we will be happy ourselves.

Spencer, Heather and Jeremy Haacke

Halloween


I know this is late but I wanted to show you what we did for Halloween. It was really fun and I think everyone got a kick out of it. We were going through a number of our boxes and we found my old Football Jerseys. We decided that we would go as football players for Halloween. We had to figure out what J was going to be and we thought that everyone needs a football in order to play football. So, J was our football that we passed around. Don't worry there were no fumbles. That didn't happen until Thanks giving.

Weclome to the Haacke Family

I want to welcome all that come to this site. Please take small doses, for I don't want anything to happen to you as you participate at this site. This is Heather my lovely wife, she was born and raised in the Appalachian mountains. It is very beautiful there and it was very difficult to get her to leave there and come with me to New Mexico and then Iowa. She is very supportive of me and I don't know what or where I would be with out here. She is currently a stay at home wife of which she is very good at it. She is truly the best wife and best mother in the whole entire Universe.

This is Jeremy (Spencer Jeremy Haacke). He was born in April of this year. He is the joy of our life. The story behind his name is interesting because we named him after a few Spencers; Me ( I am very conceded), My best Friend (Because, hey it is his name too), and the Prophet Spencer W. Kimball (the main one). I told a Spencer at Church, who is 10, that we named him after him to so he has to be good or I will come and take his name away. His middle name, of which is what we call him, is Jeremy. Heather's Father is named Jerry. He is a wonderful man and he wanted a boy. He was a father to all girls. If he had a boy he wanted to name one of his son's Jeremy. So in his honor and basically naming him after him, we named him Jeremy. There were a couple of times that we debated on changing his name to Jeremy Spencer Haacke, but we feel it is important for it to stay.

I am working currently at the city of Hawarden in Iowa. I will have to add some things I have been working on, but for now you just get a picture and a note. Sorry. I am the Economic Development Director for the city of Hawarden. That is a wonderful and exciting job. Well, I better go.
