Wood stove and JBQ

We now have a wood stove! Hopefully this will help keep the house warm this winter.

Courtney, Tucker and Tanner have been participating in Junior Bible Quiz. This past Saturday was the first meet. We got up at 4:40am to travel to Sidney, Montana for the meet. They all did very well. Courtney and Tucker are on the A league team, and Tanner is on the B league team. Trevor went along and helped as a judge in one of the B league rooms. If you get 6 questions correct during a round, you "quiz out". They all quizzed out in at least one round. Tanner did very well, quizzing out three times and placing 5th out of all the B league quizzers. We are very thankful that they are having fun hiding God's word in their hearts. There is a meet each month, and the chance to go to regional, state and national competion.




We got the cow and the pig to the butcher. The loading of the pig was easier than the unloading. She did not want to leave that trailer! We did get her off eventually, and should be getting the meat next week.

  1. JBQ. Wow, it's been a long time. Josh and Jaralei loved JBQ and we still quote from those cards sometimes when we hear something worded like that and also use the info learned. They were top quizzers in the state and got trophies we still have. We went to regionals once but that was enough for us. Some people really get into the competition and get pretty abusive. Weird. But what they learned still stayed in their minds and hearts.

    So exciting about the meat. Bet you can hardly wait to start enjoying the 'fruit' of your labor and some of that hormone and drug free meat.

    Thanks for the pics and I especially love the one by the woodstove. Love and miss you guys!
