Jill Delashmutt Bouslog 4030 Green View Drive Urbandale, Iowa 50322 (515) 253-9335 (H) BousBus@aol.com Spouse: John Bouslog Children: Zachary, 13 Abraham, 11 Benjamin, 8 Jordan, 8 Madeline, 4 Occupation: Elementary Teacher, Des Moines Public Schools Occupation of Spouse:Attorney 2000 Update John and I have lived in the Des Moines area for 17 1/2 of our almost 20 years of marriage. I have taught for Des Moines Public Schools full-time and then part-time when taking time off to have our five children. I currently job share a 3rd grade position, working two full days one week and three full days the next. I love this arrangement! Our four oldest are boys, ranging in age from almost 14, 11, almost 9 (twins), and then our daughter will be five this summer. John and I keep busy with all the boys' sports practices and games, as well as getting them to various piano and show choir rehearsals on time. Ironically the license plate on our van spells exactly what it's used for...BousBus!! We thoroughly enjoy whatever season it is and the sporting event or events that the boys participate in. For now Maddie enjoys dance and tumbling class, but assures her father and I that she will be playing soccer starting in the spring and baseball in the summer. It's! quite a treat having a little female in the house after all these years of testosterone. I have a little business of my own that keeps a few weekends in the fall booked. I paint crocks for various holidays and special occasions and take them to craft fairs to sell. "What A Crock!!" may soon have a web page of its own as I try to sell my wares via the internet. Life is busy, but has been extremely good! John and I feel very blessed! Even though we're embarking on the time that our first child will be attending high school, it seems as though our good old Macomb High School days were not that long ago. I love catching up on everyone's personal info. It helps to keep the memories alive and keep us all young! 1996 Update Hobbies: Golf, reading, crafts, #1 fan of kids’ activities What I’ve done in the last 20 years: Graduated from WIU in 1980 with B.S. in Education Married the love of my life that same year and moved to Burlington Iowa for two years Taught one year in Stronghurst, IL Moved to Des Moines in 1982 to put John through law school Received my M.S. in Education from Drake University in 1988 Taught off and on for DSM Schools while having our five children Enjoying all of the activities and sporting events of our four boys and spoiling the little girl who joined our family a year ago I’ve also started a crock painting business that allows me to be creative and participate in various craft sales/bazaars What I plan to do in the next 20 years: Raise happy, healthy, well-adjusted children Travel more with and without kids Play more golf Words of advice to Class of 1996: Make sure you commit yourself to someone who has a sense of humor.
