It’s Saturday and we have several things going on. Jon spent the morning working at the parsonage at a work day. This afternoon he’s been painting more on the house. I helped at a shower from 11-2 at the church, and we both will go back between 5 and 7 for a birthday party. Jon […]
A DAY OFF!!!!
It was a wonderful day off! Last night we went to the tractor pull with Trever, Tabbi, Tre, and Tru. Because it was a late night, the boys slept here and I took the day off. They got to sleep in a little while and then I took them to kid care. Saw Tabbi then […]
Feeling Better
Another great “America’s Got Talent” was on tonight! There was a 9 year old boy that could play a guitar like a pro and a group of postal workers that could really sing! Of course there were the crazies…don’t these people have a friend or family member who loves them enough to shake them silly […]
Book Update
Well, it was back to work today!! How did that go for you today? Work was fine, but I’m taking regular doses of Tylenol today without noticeable relief. It still scares me when my back acts up, so I’m trying to take it as careful as I can. Some time this week I need to […]
Pictures From the 4th
Can you tell who some of my favorite people are? These are some pix from the weekend…I’m pretty sure only Jon and I avoided the camera lens! I need to look at these closely and remember all I have to be thankful for. Do you sometimes have a day that tempts you to forget those […]
Great 4th
We had a really great weekend with all the kids. Jon, Kelli, and girls came late Friday night then headed to Logan in the morning. We met them and Tabbi’s family and Jon’s family in Logan for the 4th of July parade. Megan and Greg were at our house when we got back. Tabbi, the […]
America’s Got Talent Again!
This is GREAT…America’s Got Talent is BACK! Can you tell I’m excited? It’s a real bright spot in the summer TV scene. It has about everything you can imagine…singing, magic, dancing, ventriloquist, yo-yos, tumbling, eating glass (??? seriously), putting hooks into the nose and out the mouth (no kidding). The hokey guy that used to […]
These pictures were taken on Saturday at the pool in Harlan. Tre and Tru have been going to swimming lessons the last couple of weeks and were anxious to show off their water talents. Jon’s new camera even takes picutres under water…pretty cool. Friday night we drove to Des Moines to go out to eat […]
The End Does Come
Wow…I guess even the famous die. Whether by a long road of suffering or in a sudden, unexpected way, death does come calling on EVERYONE. It is sobering no matter what your opinion of Farrah or Michael. We would all do well to look at the management of our own lives and realize that we […]
Legos, Really?
That’s right, look closer, those are really Legos! We saw this exhibit called “The Art of Brick” at the Crown Center in KC. It was pretty amazing, and I’ll probably share more another time. Today the heat was broken about 4:00 by a huge thunderstorm with really high winds. The temperature fell about 25 degrees […]
