Poppo's Place

We have been working with Poppo Walker to get him moved over to Neva and John's apartment so he woldn't be alone so much. He enjoys the isolation but the Dr. said he should be closer to someone. Then, the Lord brought a BUYER for his little modular house. John's inquiries looked like we were going to have to pay someone to demolish it and take it away. What a great God we serve! It took 2 weekends of taking furniture and cleaning out the kitchen before the really BIG moving weekend. It took half a day on Friday and all day Saturday for the 12-15 of us to get it all out and ready for the movers to take it apart and move it out.

Here are some pics of it as they had taken off the front and back porches and then after it was gone. What a difference!

A May Wedding

Kaitlyn and Josiah got married in May on the only nice weekend for months. It was outdoors and was a wonderful time of being with old friends to enjoy this milestone. They are (right now) moving into their 2-bedroom house in Kirksville for Kaiti's last year of college. After that, who knows?!!

A 2008 Reunion

All 3 girls were able to come out to see us in July. Kristi brought Ben-the-man with her (of course) and he was agreat entertainer. At dinner he would laugh with his mouth wide open and look at each person around the table with full eye contact to see if they were watching and laughing at him. I don't know how he had such energy on so little food!

Granddad took them to a park in Riverbank and over to the City and across the Golden Gate.

Kelli came for a quick 2 days/2 nights weekend but we enjoyed it really fast!

Next year we can maybe get the guys here too!

A trip to Yosemite

A trip to Yosemite

It has been so long since we went that I won't say much. The pictures say more than I could anyway. It was a rainy Memorial Day weekend and we thought there wouldn't be many people there...those that went weren't Americans! Enjoy the pics.
