Depending on how you want to count them, Lynne and Peter have one, two, or three kids. I know this sounds confusing, but it's true.

The solid member of the kid-count-club is William. William is Peter's son from his first marriage, and he lives with Lynne-Mom and his Daddy. 

William is a William shows off just how many chocolate chips he can get in "one spoonful."high school and college student now. Heading into his junior year of high school, he's passed his college level exams for math and english and is eligible for Washington State's Running Start program, which allows him to take college-level classes while earning high-school credit as well.

William enjoys computer games, reading, computers, science and math, playing multi-player computer games, and figuring out how things work. William enjoys using his creative problem-solving skills, too. One day he asked if he could have some chocolate chips, and Peter told him "Yes, one spoonful." Ten minutes of careful stacking and arranging later he had the largest number of chocolate chips ever arranged on a spoon. 

Callista is Peter's oldest child. She lives in Riverside, California and is working as Callista at an SCA event a massage therapist while studying for her degree in physical therapy. In addition to giving people massages, Callista loves animals, and has had pets that range from a small, eight-legged tarantula to a huge (17') legless snake. Callista also enjoys SCA events (the picture is of her at an SCA event in "garb"), reading, and is a movie buff. 

All grown up now, Callista doesn't live with Lynne and Peter, but still comes on the annual family vacation trips and usually joins us for Christmas and other important family events, so you can count her in on the "Kid Club" or not.  

The Kid Club gets more complicated when we add Callista's half-sister Summer into the mix. Summer has never never lived with Lynne or Peter, but from her early childhood until she went to college you couldn't separate her from her sister.Summer's 21st birthday party with the family on Kauai They came as a package deal, so Summer's been on all Peter's family vacations and almost all our other family events, too. You could call Summer "the daughter Peter never had!" 

Summer is also a massage therapist, but has discovered her passion in backstage production work. She enjoys working with stage lighting and sound, but most of all she likes to blow things up. She earned a pyrotechnics license in 2005 and spends many days setting up professional fireworks displays followed by watching several days work blow up overnight.
