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

Spring Days

Last Sunday after church, Kinsey came over to ride with Jewel.


Beautiful afternoon for a walk.


Monday. Decided it was time for a school update, as this is how many days look around here. And - - - it's quiet. I do like that.



I rode with Jewel again - didn't get near as sore this time. A pillow may or may not have helped some
😬 



😅




Always great to have cutest here. Tori just taught him to give Brandi a treat. Brandi's waiting so patiently. Incidentally - Jason loves Brandi. So cute to see his excitement over her. Lucy says, "Want to go to Grandma's?" No response from Jason. She says, "Want to go see Brandi?" Jason: "Woof woof!" Maybe I should start barking😏


So glad he seems to like animals.


I missed his smiles, but they were there - - -


Josh does so good with his little nephews... more so than his niece maybe; but considering he's surrounded by females most of the time, it's understandable that he would have more fun with little boys when he gets a chance.








Busy baking day on Tuesday
😋


Also did some sewing. Seems like it rained most of the day.


Dad went to check out Jesse's progress after U. Jerry's men were there a couple days. The stairs look so much better.


A few cutests came over for awhile. 


Yep they're still cutest even with their polka dots...




Finally a nice Wednesday so Clay could get a ride on Diamond!


Wonderful luncheon Friday with some really lovely ladies. Such a treat.
Thanks again Mom for hosting us!


And that's a wrap for this week.
Thanks for reading!
