Jake & Josh Take Dairy Beef to the 4H Fair

Jake, DJ, Jon & Josh

DJ's brothers took their starter calves and steers to the fair. They showed on Tuesday and it was so fun to watch them! Here's a video of Jake showing his starter calf.

So much news!

There's so much to tell this week!

First off - Heidi and Justin are FINALLY engaged!!! He proposed to her last Friday. We had a surprise engagement party for them right after he asked her. Heidi, were you surprised or what?!?! Congratulations to you both. Welcome to the family, Heidi!

Second - Lindsay and Dan were quite the team at the Fair on Monday. Together, they won first place in First Year Western Pleasure and Second in First Year Western Horsemanship. I'm so proud! Way to go Linz!

Pictures coming soon...

Carrie Underwood

I love Carrie Underwood. I just bought the Carnival Ride CD. The song "Last Name" is my favorite. I LOVE the video too.

Zach Attack

Isn't Zach the cutest?! Here's a picture of him kayaking in Florida. Matt, Jennifer and the boys spent a week or so with mom and dad in June. Happy Birthday Zach! (Zach turned 8 last Friday.)

Lake Wawasee 2008!

We had a great time during our 4th annual trip to Lake Wawasee this year. The house was awesome. Best parts of the trip:

• Heidi and Heather on the boat the first weekend...you know what you did. :)


• Going to the open house across the street and dreaming about buying!


• Getting Guitar Hero for my birthday!!!


• Phil's yummy muscles (okay that sounded a little weird...he cooked muscles for us for dinner.)


• The fireworks on Lake Wawasee.


• Alissa's cute little bump in her yellow bikini!! I hope little Cameron will be ready for next year's trip.
