What a Rag-Tag Bunch!

Some Friends of ours, Rob and Janelle, recently sent this picture to us. It was taken in our back yard. It's pretty indicative of what we look like when we're just kicking back here at home - running around in pajamas or whatever is comfortable. This was taken last fall when their family came over for a visit. We had a great time playing games. We will be spending our Spring Break with their family this year, at the Coast. We will surely have a great time there, also.

Preston and Keaton enjoy being in Track together. Keaton has started Driver's Ed. We are waiting to see which will get their driver's license first between Preston and Keaton! Winston got his stitches taken out and is continuing to keep things lively. Tom and I helped out with the Little Guy Wrestling Tournament last Saturday. We helped serve breakfast to the 500 little wrestlers and their families. Some of those little guys look like they're just babies! They were so cute! I don't think Winston has the discipline for wrestling - but we'll see when he's older. We're getting poured on with rain here, but at least it's melting the snow. We're all counting the days to Spring Break!

What More Could Possibly Happen?????

The picture speaks for itself.... We've had a crazy couple of weeks. Last Thursday morning at around 7:00 a.m. our power went out. Just before it went out, we heard a loud crack and crash. One of the big ponderosa trees across the road from our house came down and cut through the power line. Needless to say, we were without power for several hours and our road was cut off from town. I had to drive 30 miles around to get to work that morning. Then Tuesday of this week, Winston hit is head on a counter at school. They called me in to see him. He actually had a hole in his head between his nose and forehead. I had to take him in to the clinic for stitches. That was quite an adventure - it took four of us to hold him down so they could put the injection in to do the stitches. I think the whole clinic could hear him hollering. Now he thinks he looks pretty cool! I just can't imagine what could happen next - they say these things come in threes.
