Blood and guts



Well here are the wounds of loving your music. He was at a concert with friends and got wacked. Fortunately Ethan was there to clean it up and butterfly it. He is normal again (at least in the eye department. It's weird because two other of my kids got cuts in the same place. Marklar thinks I'm weird, because I think it's weird.

Tie Dye



Marklar got a little bored so his creative juices got going on 3 tie dye shirts. He looks a little mesmerized by them. Maybe it's all the hippie juice in the air.

Bikers unite

Not sure if this was before or after there climb for 100 miles, but they do look in pain.

Chardon is everywhere!



Here we are at the Mellow Mushroom with some Chardon neighbors, the Krolls and ethan's hiding somewhere. Tom was working in Asheville and his wife and daughter came for a visit.

Ethan playing in the drum circle in Asheville

Mark and Marky took Ethan to the drum circle in downtown. It's pretty wild and fun.

Sopenski Visit



Peggy, Jayne, and Ethan came last Saturday for a visit. Ethan is a cycler so Mark and him have gone on a few rides. This is Marky's room where they can be heard talk at all hours!! Peggy and Jayne were taken on a hike in the mountains by Mark while Marky, Ethan, and I went to church. We all met up at Doc Chey's Peggy's favorite Asheville restaurant afterwards. Now the girls don't look like they're hiking do they??? Ethan's staying the week and Peg will be back to pick him up after there trip to Atlanta. So here I go with all men, oh my, oh me.

Weekend with the Boys


I just realized I am out numbered with boys again. Where did all the girls go??We went to our favorite Fletcher Park and had all your cookout foods and uncle Mark did some stunts helping the boys reach the ceiling of our pavilion. Then they had a contest to see who who could stand on the post the longest. Fishing was a big feature, couple places, many times over the weekend. Don't have a picture of it, but camping on the deck.

He's back!!!




Well, he's back. Hopefully many of you got the letter he sent from my email since I have all the addresses. He had a good trip and God moved among them in salvations, baptisms, and healings of the heart and body. The picture I couldn't get to be in the right direction is some kind of thing they did as a challenge where they were on this crates and then kept adding them. Mark was on top of 14 of them. I think this picture about 10, so kinda high.

Beauty doubled

Aren't they incredible. They are just beginning to eat food. I've been coming the last three Tuesdays at 6 Am to let Isaac go to a prayer meeting. What a blessing to be able to spend time with them. What great parents Isaac and Molly are and wonderful big brothers the boys have become. Neat to see how God forms families.
