A New Addition to the Family

 We got exciting news over the weekend when our son, Neal, announced his engagement to a lovely red-headed lass named Shannon. A new daughter in the family! What a blessing!

It's almost like having a baby! Well, without the achy hips and weight gain. And I don't have to raise her! She's all done! Her folks did a fine job. We just get to enjoy her talents and sunny personality and we got to skip all the teenage angst and growing pains. If she had any of that.




And her talents are many- she's a classy country girl and it looks like she may be able to out-hunt and out-fish her future husband. She butchers hogs and makes soap like a true pioneer woman.

Which means she'll fit right in around here.
