Perry and Katreen are engaged! They will marry on July 10, 2009. Wedding plans are almost complete. They have quite a story of God's faithfulness in their lives.
Ellen and I went to Rapid City for 3 days, to visit Jody (her daughter), Jamie, and their three children. 
Economic times may be hard, but the storage business is bursting at the seams. Kevin has decided to build 8 additional 11X 10 foot storage units in the quonset in our back yard. Getting that first wall of new construction up can be tricky!
Work is progressing. Kevin purchased the yellow scaffolding for this project. Kevin is walking toward the east overhead door. He will replace that large door after the units are completed. 
Michael and Katie on his graduation day. After 1 1/2 years of study, he has completed his graduate studies in computer engineering. Out of the 235 graduates, Michael was the only 2nd Lt. Now they are moving to Florida.
Jared, on left, at the cockpit of his KC 135 refueler. He is returning from the Middle East conflict and will hug his family tomorrow. 
Elena and Miri have new dresses to wear for Daddy's return tomorrow. He's been gone most of Miri's life!
After a career with the post office, Candice's long-awaited retirement day has come. At 6 AM on March 1st, Candice leaves her home in Georgia to move back to her roots in South Dakota.
Kevin led our group with a large billboard type U-Haul truck. Candice & I followed in our cars. Two 700 mile days of driving took us from Atlanta, Georgia to Cresbard, SD. Once we were headed home, there was no stopping us!
Invariably, when we talked on a cell phone, Candice and I would go into auto-pilot and stop following Kevin.
Candice enroute with her dogs. Dakota, her third dog, is in the back seat. During road stops, Candice made friends everywhere when she walked her dogs with a triple dog leash. A gentleman referred to our energetic sister as our "daughter".
