A Couple of Seconds

 Why A Couple of Seconds? Well because way back here was A Couple of Firsts.

And the second time around for both these events was just as good as the first time around. Or better. First event was the Koch Timber Gospel Sing. Beautiful weather, beautiful evening, beautiful singing, beautiful fellowship.

Idk this young man or his son. But his little boy was just pretty stinking cute. Like father, like son. 

Mini soapbox time. A dad's example is powerful. The end.

This girl. Attracted to music like a moth to a candle.

Then her little brother joined her. Same attraction.

Then their big brother joined them. 

These three 😍.

I don't know any other kids that are this infatuated with all things music. Good thing they have a good piano teacher 😄. Will be fun to see what kind of song God writes for them as they grow up. I know it'll be good.

Thanks again Kochs for a wonderful evening.

We were blessed.

Sunday evening was the Second Annual All-Church Chili Supper. Beautiful weather, beautiful evening, beautiful singing, beautiful fellowship. 

And fantastic chili 😋!

Thanks Greg and Rita for this picture (Greg for taking it, Rita for sharing it). 

Who can say there's not a God?

(and I quote Rita...)

Thanks again Beutels and Wagenbachs.

We were blessed.

Harvest

 After applesauce and school was done on Wednesday, Josh and Brandi walked to the lake with me.

Harvest has begun.

Ben driving, with Josh and Kiowa riding.

Jesse driving, with Levi, Flint, and Jasper riding.

Flint's turn for tractor with U. Ben.

Semi driver Ryan H. watching; older kids got to ride with him as well.

Then to stay with Travis so Lucy & Jason could ride with Jesse awhile.

Thursday.

Px from Sarah -

Back to me, yesterday afternoon. Air was HOT; water was very cold.

Wiener roast last night found this little cute-as-a-button cowboy running around.

You never know who will show up for Saturday lunch.

Little guy was completely intrigued with Popsy's apples.

And that's a wrap for the week. Oh - I could've titled it HOT WEEK because it was that too. I'm very ready for cool; how about y'all?!
