A house full!!

Our friend Darcy and her 6 beautiful blessings stayed with us the week after Jenny and Justin's wedding. They had a graduation to attend the following Saturday. Everyone had a great time. Darcy's are 15 and down, so it was as if we had about 7 sets of twins in the house. Definitely a house full of blessings!! The kids played outside a lot. They worked on a tree house that Caleb(Darcy's) headed up. I wish we had a picture. I will have to go down and take one. They also made a home made slip and slide, and rode horses almost every day. Darcy, it was a fun having you and your children!!!!!!

Magan and Amy


One morning when the horses came up they found porcupine quills in our friends horse, Annie. Roy pulled them out, apparently about 30 or so.


Matthew and his friendly horned toad


Swimming at the La Quinta that the Kings stayed in the last day they were here

Matthew catching the football. Patty threw to the boys for a long time and our Mr. athletic Matthew went for it every time.

Now that's a full living room at movie time

Home made slip and slide. I was so proud of them, didn't they do a good job.

New calf

The last few days we've been noticing Bessie showing signs of really getting close to calving and today we are sure the signs were accurate.

Isn't she cute!!!!! Joshua just said, "Are you sure its a she?" We'll not exactly, we ordered sex specific semen so we hope so.
OK, now for the name. The choices are; Sweet pea, Mocha, Carmel, Sweetie, and May. Place your vote now.

Mr. and Mrs. Justin Mark McClure's wedding and a recital

Altar decorated and ready for a bride and groom.

Jenny Kay Zesch and Justin Mark McClure had an amazing wedding last Saturday. Jenny was beautiful and Justin was very handsome and a tad nervous. So now we have a new son and a daughter with a new name. We are so very excited to see what the Lord has planned for the two of them. We love you both very much Mr. and Mrs. Justin Mark McClure!!!!!

I looked back in the van on the way to the recital on Sunday and saw one tired boy!!!!


Joshua at the piano playing Song of the Kilimenjaro

Joy, playing Harp song
I thought I took a picture of Jimmie playing his piece and I guess I didn't, sorry Jim's.

Annie, Joshua, Jimmie, and Annie played a piece at the spring recital. Their teacher Mrs. Schlaudt has asked Annie to play with the high school ensemble team in Arlington this year. They can have a select number of post twelve grade level members on the team, so Annie will join us. We will head to Arlington on June 17th to see these four talented pianists play on ensemble teams. Joy and Jimmie are on a team together and will play a piece called Spy. Joshua is on a team and will play a piece called Rhapsody, and Annie's team is playing Carmen. We are all very excited.
We'll have the professional pictures of the wedding as soon as the bride and groom come back from their honeymoon and we get with the photographer.
