Luggage Rack


Forgot the luggage rack

Bike upgrades

Hey, thought ya'll would enjoy the new stuff Papa had put on the bike.
I know Ken and Stephen will. I did a video to let you hear the new sound but it wasn't very good. You really couldn't hear the difference as much as I thougth you would. You will just have to hear it in person. He put Vance & Hines on, and it sounds really good!

A Good Week

This has actually been a very good week.
They finished up on the repairs on our mobile home, and we now have a roof with NO hole in it :)
They finished the bedroom late Friday so now I get to start moving everything back, but first I think I will do a little house cleaning, as in getting rid of things we don't need, or haven't used, maybe since we have been here!!!!

Still don't have any job prospects, but I know God has something for me to do, I just have to be patient, and wait upon the Lord, which is not an easy thing for me, but I am trying.

We got out and rode today, we went out to Cloudland and rode up 157 a ways, ran into some old friends from Dry Creek! It was very hot, but we enjoyed the ride and the wonderful food, we stopped where a group Kenny works with were set up cooking Barbecue, Brunswick stew and fried apple pies. Yes, we got some of it all!!!!

Oh well, just wanted to let everyone know what is going on.
Thanks for your prayers.

We had a storm!!!

The pictures that follow are of some of the damage after a storm here on Sunday night. We were at church and you could hear the rain, thunder, see the lightning, and the power even went off. Papa just kept on preaching and finished his sermon. When we came out we noticed a tree down in the driveway, so we cautioned everyone to be careful and go around the tree. A few minutes later, Bro. Richard came back into the church and told us that there was a tree on our trailer. It was scary, but we are just so thankful that God is so good. Within a few minutes the men of the church, and some of their family and friends were back and started the work of getting the tree off the trailer to prevent further damage.
Praise God for such wonderful folks he has blessed us to know!

The pictures are not in any order, and I should have put the rainbow last, I guess, but I just didn't think.

God Is Good!

God still sets his bow in the sky! I am just so thankful no one was hurt, and this was just a beautiful sight. I couldn't get the entire rainbow, it was a perfect bow, but I could only get this side.

The tree is finally gone!

They finally got the tree off the trailer about 10:30 pm. Bro. Mike made this picture of the roof where the tree went through.

Helpers

The tree that you see here is a part of the tree that went onto and into the roof. It will be going soon, too much of a hazard now. The squirrels will just have to find somewhere else to play!

Taking the tree off the roof!

Johnny and Mike cutting small sections of the tree to get it off the roof. They had to cut the tree in small sections to keep it from doing any more damage to the roof.

The sun came out!!!

The sun came out so I actually got a pretty good picture of the mess!
This is from the front. If you notice the little dots, it was still raining when I made most of the pictures.

We came out of church to this scene

Ken and Terri


Ken, Terri, Kerry, Emily, Cami and Taylor came up Friday and stayed until Saturday. Ken wanted some time on the bike, and of course the girls wanted to ride.

Terri got really brave this weekend. She actually went on a ride longer than just down the driveway and back.

This bike looks like something Batman would ride!

Papa, Ken and Stephen - Three peas in a pod!!!


We all got together and took the girls and their friends bowling today. Emily and Cami wanted to do that for their birthday, which was in May!
But I got this picture, which is rare, to be able to get a picture of my three oldest boys together.

Papa and His Grandkids


This is part of what makes Father's Day so special! After you watch your children grow into adults, and then they bring home the grandchildren, that makes it all worth while.
