WOW!

We walked out of Grandpa's Restaurant (aka - Marketplace Grille) on Saturday night (27th) and saw this beautiful sight! It's not very often that you see a FULL & DOUBLE rainbow (although I don't know if you can tell it's a double in the picture)! The kids were so excited!

House Progress









Well, after about 8 years of thinking about it, it's finally happening!!!! We have started to build our dream house! I remember 8 years ago on the night Seth proposed, having a picnic in the field where we would someday build a house.... and now the basement walls are up! Very exciting and scary... but so worth it! We can't wait to be back in the country! Estimated move-in day.... probably November (no doubt during the heart of harvest!!!) If you're ever in the area, stop by to check out the progress! It's about 3/4 mile North of Inwood on the back blacktop road (or from Damon & Susan's... 1/2 mile West and about 1/4 mile South)!

Helping Grandpa & Daddy with the Cement














Daddy and Grandpa were pouring some cement at the North Place for new cattle pens, so of course we had to go check it out and help (and put our "mark" there - aka - our handprints). The kids always like to help out, but of course they love to play more - they had a blast climbing up the "sand" pile and rolling up little balls of cement. Poor Andraya, at one point, forgot about the new WET cement and just went running...she didn't get too far as the wet cement caught her feet and made her fall right into it... guess she left a little more than just a handprint that time!!! Good thing Daddy and Grandpa are so easy-going and loving... they were more concerned with her being sad than the marks she left in the cement (which was pretty easy to cover up!)
