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

Moving Day

Monday morning (6-27) Josh went walking again, and Jewel went to help Echo awhile (also got Josh when he was done walking). Then after Sarah & I met with her ICC advisor and got her all signed up for fall classes, Suzanne brought her crew out to adopt four cute kittens. Of course the puppies were glad to see the kids too.



Then Brooke, Sheryl, and Paige brought out their kiddos to see puppies. Of course the puppies were glad to see the kids too ๐Ÿ˜Š. 




When Jewel & Josh got back from Echo's, Jewel gave a few horse rides. Kids did so good!



ASK dropped off three littles then and they wanted rides too. I only got a px of Jasper solo, Idk why. Kiowa and Flint certainly got their solo turns as well. They love it.


Sheryl was sure Thia wouldn't like a horse ride... and she didn't, for the first 30 seconds or so. Then she loved it, hammed it up, banging her little hand on the saddlehorn, so smiley and adorable! I didn't get a picture of Thia solo, but snagged one when Sheryl jumped on too.


Grandkids' turn when others left.


After Jasper went to bed and ASK took J&J on a Mackinaw River Walk, these two did quiet time and I did a powernap. Then we spent a beautiful afternoon in the backyard. We've had some lovely days lately.




Flint: "Literally two big beans" ๐Ÿ’•








๐Ÿ˜



Three went home, then choretime and more puppy play. Super cute and super fun.


After a quick supper, we joined a crew moving Levi's into a temporary house where they'll live while their basement is being dug out.









Sing unto him, sing psalms unto him: talk ye of all his wondrous works. Glory ye in his holy name: let the heart of them rejoice that seek the LORD.
 Psalm 105:2-3
