Greetings all who still read Xanga, and specifically anyone who might have a subscription to my long-ignored xanga site. Who-hoo spring is almost here and my enthusiasm for blogging and taking pictures has returned!

We have had a great couple weekends and I thought I would upload some photos from Columbia MO to fill you in on happenings' here:

First, the sad news: Don and Robbie Lee have left us to voyage south to Ar-kansas. Why? We wish we knew! Our crying did not cause them to cease and desist in their exodus to the trailer-park state. We will sorely miss them as they are tres-fab.

We had a going-away party for them between services a couple weeks ago and Jana Cope made a most tasty cake:

Tiffany Zane (on the left above) is most gravid with child and due any day now.

When that happens Mr. Issac Zane (seen below with his papa) will no longer be an only child.  Ouch life can be hard for toddlers! Lance Nilson agrees and says 'Don't ever get pregnant people!'

This past weekend (Sunday March 9th) we had a great time--AWeave and Rachel McFarland came a-visiting and allowed me to snap a few shots of them:

They are so cute and cool, you have to love them. We suggested they move to Columbia and attend church with our happy group. We received no answer on the suggestion--perhaps they will think it over.

Clint Defrance came up and spoke for us during both services--edification was to be had by all. He is a great evangelist and handsome to boot--take note single ladies! Jessica laughed so hard at his "beggars can't be choosers" joke that she almost cried.

The dinner theme for the afternoon brought out the inner hobbit in me: pie.

I will close with a couple shots of younglings partying down yesterday: first sweet little miss Kennedy Miller charmed one and all with her babilicious good looks and positive attitude.

Logan Shaw was so excited about the 'pie' theme of the Sunday dinner that he had to dance like Steve Martin (notice Levi in the background, similarly thrilled).

Well, I hope you enjoyed your Lord's day, be sure to check out Jessica's new Facebook site (if you are progressive and not stuck in 2005 like me).
God is good.
