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

Puppies!

It's been a busy few weeks here at the Kaiser homeplace. Garden, and puppies, and kids, and lake, and school, and well --- here's a peek. 
Way back to last Monday when the derecho tore a few shingles off the roof. We had been at the lake (no px😒) and weren't watching the sky at all because I had checked that morning and saw the storms were taken out of the forecast. Omy was that forecast ever wrong. That storm blew up faster than anything I'd ever seen before; when we finally noticed it, we had about 10 minutes before the front hit. Sarah was working at 360yc, so Jewel and Josh raced home to get horses and laundry in, and I helped Beth lay umbrellas down and secure all floats before I raced home too. I can't remember how much rain we got, but Idk it was much. The wind, on the other hand, left its mark.


That night Levi's and Jesse's came for supper and to look at Jacob/Ben's vacation px. I think we're all ready for a mountain vacation... soon...


Sky was gorgeous.






Tuesday was our last Auggie day for the summer.


Thanks Echo for a smile from Jasper💗
Precious.


Beautiful skies on a walk with Dad.
