On the road again . . .

Last week we traveled to Bedford, Iowa for a auction.  This was the 1st away auction the kids and I have been able to attend since I went on bed rest last fall. It was so much fun to be back on the road and the Girls and Barrett LOVED it!

the girls loved "camping" and being outside

Sending our Prayers

We are Thinking and Praying for our family, friends and all those living in my hometown of Rock Valley who are experience a city wide flood.  Much of the town is under water and the water has yet to hit its peak.

from the sounds of many Facebook posts the surrounding communities are sending in lots of help from sandbagging to helping famers move hundreds of cattle to higher ground.

Please keep the town of Rock Valley and surrounding area in your prayers!
