July 2026
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

7-8-11 Father/Son Night

So it was a busy week doing beans and getting ready for the weekend. Friday was spent cleaning, running errands in town, and preparing for Father/Son Night and Steiner Reunion and guests. By 4:00, Dad took Jacob and Ben to the Granary to set up for Father/Son Night, and I went with Levi around 5:00. We met ASK and TZ coming out here where the girls had Papa Murphy’s pizza ready for supper. The girls (and Josh) had a fun evening and took LOTS of pix to show me. Me & the boys had a fine time too at F/S NIght (Jesse came when he was done milking) and arrived home right as Dan & Anne got here, followed by Jason & Carrie an hour or so later. A great time!!!!!!!

The girls’ (and Josh) evening started out with jumprope here.

Next was water balloons and water guns at ASK’s.

This soaking wet crew then walked to the Tiber Stream. . . .

. . . and ended up at Pinky’s for ice cream.

Thank you once again, Aunt Sarah, for giving the girls and Josh a fun-filled and memorable evening. You know we all love you with all our hearts!
