Against All Odds...

...Ma finally gets up the pics! No thanks to Blogger. Even Photobucket gave me a little trouble.

Ah well.

Lotsa stuffs goin' on. So here's the latest:

Kendra came back from college on Saturday night, and wants everyone to know that she is technically a junior, now. There was a problem with the "new" old car, however, in that it was drinking up buckets of oil. Because of that...

...Jason had to take our old Toyota down to Cedar Rapids on Sunday, in preparation for starting his co-op with Rockwell Collins on Monday.
Here he is, packing up the car, helped by Trevor. "I'm shoh thehoh's some woom in the fwont seat foh me..."

On the way down, something quite raucous occurred with the muffler, in that, it muffles not, anymore.

Gotta love buying used vehicles, folks! There are heavy doin's going on to get both cars fixed.

As if that were not enough, we were quietly doing school yesterday morning when a low rumble was heard. A certain boy who's initials are Ethan Michael Hoyt was heard to exclaim, "IT's MR. FREY! HE'S COMING TO PLOW THE FIELD! IN HIS 8-WHEELER! I WAS RIGHT! ABOUT EVERYTHING !!"

School came to a thudding halt.

And speaking of Ethan, he was terribly pleased with himself in predicting that Mr. Frey would come with the new 8-wheeler to plow.

(tell ya what, Ethan...you just try that, "I was right...about everything!" with your wife some day, and see what happens...)

We managed to get back and finish school. And then Mr. Frey came back and planted, woo-wee!
Most exciting. And the kids are not quite as close to the tractor as it appears.

Run....RUN LIKE THE WIND!

Of course, it helps when you have tons of relatives. And besides, people feel sorry for us old folks.
