Landscaping and bulldozing


Ever since I can remember my Grandpa Whalen has been moving dirt and landscaping his land into a beautiful and efficient place.
The other night I took a quick walk and this is what I found.



I found Jeremiah sitting quietly on the tractor watching his Grandpa bulldoze away.

Jared's Last Stand


When it came to Jared's attention that there was a closed trucker's stand on 170, he jumped at the opportunity to open it up again and serve the many truckers that pass by there every day.
     Since it was to open the 18th of June he decided to invite everyone over last Sunday night so the cook could have a chance to get the feel of things and we could try out the menu and give any tips.  These pics are from Sunday night.   Many things have been changed and slowly but surely  they are becoming a more efficient business.

Riah can't wait to try out the food!

The company truck. . . it looks mighty nice but I don't want to know what the gas mileage is on the thing.






Come on out and try out the Breakfast and Lunch menus!   Jared, we wish you the best of success!

A few things on the menu:  Cinnamon Rolls, Breakfast Burritos, Hamburgers, Steak Hoagies, Chicken Fajitas, Drinks. . .  . and many more delicious foods :)

Take time to meditate in the busy-ness of life.



In hopes of making it easier for people to tell us apart, Naomi got a perm. :)

We got to celebrate Levi's birthday last Thursday.


We had cake and ice-cream while Levi opened his gifts.


Of course we had to have some fun playing the piano too. :)

Survival!


Levi wanted to celebrate his birthday by having his friends over for a camp out. 


They killed a rabbit and ate it.


They slept in a log cabin type structure.

Rabbit hide!  
They went hunting, swimming, and other random things that boys enjoy doing.   All went well and no one came away with a serious injury!
