Isaac Again


I was just playin around with the photos and thought this would be cute. And I'm sure some of you are thinking Isaac reverent? Ha!!
Well I do have a couple of cute stories to tell about Isaac in primary.
I was subing for the pianist in primary and while I was playing I looked up to see Isaac had his tie wrapped around his head. So I gave him a funny look and pointed to his head as if asking why? He looked and me and said "I like it this way."

Then on another occation I heard this story from a lady in primary.
Isaac was of course not realy listening during a talk. Well the talk that was being given had something to do with a candy bar, that word was repeated several times. So each time the speaker said "candy bar" Isaac perked right up and would look at his friend with wide eyes and say "A CANDY BAR!" I'm sure it wasnt very quite either.

ISAAC



Okay I have some pictures. Yeah!! Isaac had his pictures taken for his 4th b-day. Needless to say we had quit the time getting him to smile. I had to throw a small ball AT him then he kind of smile. But I told the gal taking the pictures that that was his normal everyday look.

Butcher


Hey! So I haven't posted for awhile and I have no cool new pics. SORRY! I'm boring. So over the easter weekend I did not get to go home for the easter egg hunt instead the fam and I stayed home and slaughtered a cow. It was given to us by a friend of brants that is a dairy man. The cow had broke her hip so Brant went and did the dirty work on the dairy and quartered the cow and brought it home, with the help of his Dad. He was so exshausted when he got home it took them about 4 to 5 hours. He was excited when he told me about the cow but then when he got home from the dirty work he said "I'm not doing that again." I couldn't help but laugh.
Then Isaac had to tell everyone that came to our home that there was a cow in our garage.
So butchering took place on friday night and then into saturday. So all in all about a total of hours of butchering. That was with the help of Brants Mom, Dad, brother, sister, and myself. But it is well worth the food supply that hopefully will last us close to a year. The lord surely does bless us, free cow and we did the butchering ourself so I think we came out ahead.
FYI Brants Grandfather and Father use to run a meat market back in the day. His grandfather has passed away but his Dad still seems to know what he is doing. Brant has many fond memories of spending time with his grandfather unfortunatly I never did get to meet him.
Isaac was bummed that we were not going to g-mas for the easter egg hunt so he got to go to the Preston easter egg hunt with my friend Kelli and also they dyed eggs together. What a great friend I have to hang with my kid.:)
