The Pitsch Family of 2006. Andy and Nancy Pitsch are not afraid of growing a family. Even after their first born son, Ethan they continued to have children clinging to the words...it can only get better! Three beautiful daughters later (Victoria, Jennifer and Whitney) the family growth was at a bit of a hiatus but all of us in the family have grown up a lot since 1989 when Whitney was born. From 1989 until 2005 there might not have been any new additions but there was certainly growing taking place.

Andy continued to grow as he branched out with a new job at Wahl Clipper (Where the world goes to look good.) and more recently has joined a band where he gets to play all kinds of music from praise to classic rock.

Nancy continued to grow with her employment at the YWCA where she literally is the best preschool teacher ever (proof: http://www.ethan1.com/2005/11/my-mother-gift-from-god.html) and she also is the founder of the "Double Clap Community" and it has grown leaps and bounds since it originated in the early 1990's.

Ethan has grown tremendously and it all started when he moved to O-town. Most recent growth would include starting his own business (Code Axis), then partnering with his friend to form his existing business (Caxiam Group) and they contiue to gain new clients every day.

I, myself, have grown with moving to Indianapolis, feeling called into ministry as a Sports Director of SPC and buying and now maintaining a house.

Jennifer has grown through her years of college and moving away from home. Most recently she graduated from college and got her first "real-life" job.

Whitney has taken huge strides in growing up as she's now a senior in high school and is a born leader among her peers. She is the one who has endured the most change in our family with really no voice in the decisions, like when Ethan, myself and Jen moved away. She truly is wise beyond her years and I am confident she's still got a lot of wonderful growth ahead of her.

I'm not really going to count non-humans in the Pitsch Family member numbers because there's really been too many and plus, we always have really weird pets. Ok, I'll name the ones I can out of respect for the animal kingdom...Mickey, Sunny, Sprite, Kirby, Pipi, Baby...what was the hamster's name again?!?!?

The summer of 2005 marked the newest addition and continued literal growth of our family when Ethan married his lovely bride, Amy. Apparently he was just getting our family warmed up because less then a calendar year later Jennifer married her handsome groom, Nate so now the Pitsch family is up to 8 members. Doesn't our family look nice all dressed up? It doesn't happen often so please admire.

Labor Day 2006 brings the family (minus Amy) to Indianapolis...can't wait to see you all! :)
