Second, I have been getting a lot of spam comments lately, so I decided to add word verification. Sorry about that. It is just one extra step.

Our grandson Tyler was featured on Scout.com!recruiting.scout.com
"Prep football in the state of Kansas has churned out a number of nationally-ranked quarterbacks in recent years, and McPherson (KS) High School product Tyler Matthews looks to continue that trend for the Class of 2012."

We are blessed to have our grandson Casey here. He is such a good kid. He is going on a snow play date over at Tatum's while we attend Wes' memorial service. Here is a copy of Wes' obituary from the Bend Bulletin:

Kristin, Mom and Kari showing off the new p.j.'s we got them for Christmas:
UPDATE: Last night was so fun. Six people, five dogs and roast beef for dinner. We all had a fun visit with April; and Tatum stayed the night with Casey and the rest of us.
=============================
The snow has settled down, and now it is just plain FREEZING. It is 13* outside as I write this. Well, that is about it for now. I just wanted to check in and say hi, before I go to the service and get sad. Have a wonderful winter day.
