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

Flying

by Jewel

A couple of Wednesdays ago we had two little Sauders here along with Ben.  


On Saturday we girls and A. Sarah went down to the lake. Mom was down for a while too, but then she headed back to the house. Tori had brought Brandi (the dog) down in her harness so she would pull us around chasing the hockey puck.  She liked to stay right beside Tori.


Sarah forgot her water bottle.




Sunday night at Grandma's house with some of U. Mark's and some of U. Mike's.


A new couch and coffee table were delivered which added some excitement to the day's boring school routine.  


Last Wednesday Cason, Josh, and Ben helped Sarah make chocolate chocolate chip cookies.




Thursday night we babysat the Aberle kids, and I got some time with Auggie.  


What a ham! 


Melody and Jenna came over on Friday. Kinzie loved this bear.




 Friday night.




Katie babysat Cason and Clay on Tuesday this week instead of Wednesday, but Clay was sick so only Cason came. He was pleased with this boat he made.


This is what happens when the garbage man doesn't pick up the old couch. We three littles are enlisted to haul it down to the south grove.


Wednesday three Baers came over while Jenna had errands, and so with Ben thrown in there and Echo for lunch, it was a busy day.  





And time keeps flying by.
