March 2024
Over the years, we've always compared our family life to a wagon train heading west. Just as everyone had to do his part to get to Oregon years ago, so everyone in our family must do his/her part to make our journey through life successful. If somebody climbs in the wagon and lets the others do the work, we just don't make any progress. We all have to pull our weight and work together. Along the trail we find lots of pebbles that make for a smooth ride and some bigger rocks that jar us a little; we hit the occasional pothole that can slow us down. But if we purpose to search diligently, there are countless gold nuggets and precious gemstones along the way as well. This journal is an attempt to preserve some of those precious moments for our children, and our children's children, as together we travel this trail called life.

Thou wilt shew me the path of life: in thy presence is fulness of joy; at thy right hand there are pleasures for evermore. Psalm 16:11

I don’t remember if this has been reported yet: 4 sweet new kittens in the haymow, as pretty as can be and very friendly too.

Monday night shenanigans.

It’s been cold ever since Monday. Tuesday we got some deep cleaning done.

It’s been very cool but kids still stay busy in the barn. My camera disappears for a while every afternoon.

PROOF of spring!!!

The four kittens, (first picture above), are still confined to the haymow with their queen. Little Buggy Bumpers is the only lonely kitten available for play right now, but oh my he gets lots of attention.

And I really don’t know who came up with such a goofy name for a kitten but I guess no one asked my opinion anyway so I’ll have to live with it!!!!!!!

Have a wonderful weekend everyone!
