Guess you are probably wondering, What is he doing adding another post so soon, especially after that last one. Well one this 4th of July 2008 Kim and I got up real early to go fishing. I know that is what Kim really wanted to do on a day she could have slept in, but being the trooper and support that she is we headed down to Bob Snows to get in a couple hours of fishing. The weather was nice, the fish were biting, especially on all the new lures that Holly and Micah had gotten me for my birthday. As far as I was concerned it was a great start to celebrating being an American and enjoying a great American experience. And Kim was actually enjoying catching some fish. Had to give her a few pointers on the flyrod thing. She couldn't figure out that whole why the line kept balling up around her foot. But we got that figured out and I think she actually caught more fish than me. But i was OK with that, it is a part of the conversion plan to turn her into a fisher person!!!! She hung one really big bass and I ran to help but just as she was getting it to land, the big boy (or girl) got off!!!! But it was a great training session for the new fisherperson to have. In the midst of all this fun we got a call from Jessie and Tanner. Jessie insisted that Kim put the phone of speaker phone. So with fishing rod in one hand with fish attached and phone in the other, we listened as Jessie expouned..."Guess what, you are going to be Grand-Parents again.
I'm Pregnant". I can not express the surprise, excitedment, and gratitude I had at that moment, nor the joy I had for Jessie at that time. I know she has wanted children, and I am thankful for blessings that come from sources that we often overlook or take for granted. I know this will be one of the greatest blessings and adventures of Tanner and Jessie's Life.Anyway, here is a picture of the happy couple
. And I understand they are both very excited!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Now Kim and I are priviledged to not only have two daughters that are beautiful, but that are both pregnant at the same time. Here I am with my two beautiful daughters and as happy as I was in that picture, there are not words exquisite enough to explain the joy that is now Mine and Kim's. Next year 2 new grand children, and maybe even another wedding (hint hint Jacob). Anyway just a short blog entry for the day we have food to cook and eat, fireworks to watch and gratitude for our country to express. To all a wonderful 4th....kjb
