It May Be Empty Now...

We bought an empty lot on the country club golf course, and we are in the process finding a home plan to put on it. Yes, after two years of waiting and praying for a house, the Lord made it clear we need to build. Perhaps God wants to test our marriage. :)

So, drum roll please, here's the lot:

The lot is a corner lot. This is a view of the middle right.

Neckie Poo

Matthew was procrastinating before bed. Steve and I thought he looked too cute to disturb him, so we took pictures instead. Check out that tan line!

"New" Toys

We are the proud new owners of a four-wheeler and trailer!

The Myers Farm

Our dear friend, Kathy Myers, and her parents invited us to their farm for a tour and dinner. Matthew had his pick of farm equipment to drive. His choices were a combine, a crop sprayer, and a tractor. Since he has driven a combine and a tractor, he went with the crop sprayer. Our camera was set on video mode, so instead of stills there are mostly videos.











After the farm tour Matthew spent most of his time on the small four-wheeler in the Myers backyard. I think the day was probably one of the best im his two and a half years.

Mate, Joni and Uncle Glyn's Visit

Mate, Joni, and Uncle Glyn came to Clarksdale to celebrate Glyn's birthday. Lots of fun was had by all. We went to Wildwood Hunting Camp to check out the "lodge", ate dinner at Madidi, and enjoyed having family in town. Thank y'all for making the trek and keeping your camera around so we have pictures!


Steve and Mate are enjoying the lounge chairs at Wildwood.


A backhoe is still on the property at the hunting camp. Uncle Glyn kept a close eye on our little construction guru.
