It was so fun to finally visit Stephen and Katie for the first time in their home! They fulfill their role as host and hostess very well :) Thank you, Stephen and Katie!

  1. Cool bookstore! Wish there were something like that close to here... :-(

    Of course, that would leave our family impoverished, perhaps.

  2. Mrs. Morton is texting? This is, most amusing.

  3. Mr. Pockras~
    Yes, if we had a book store like that around here we would most likely be impoverished, too. :D The books that I got were a Dicken's book "Little Dorrit", and David McCullough's book "John Adams". Great prices on used books!

    Mumzie wants to know why you find it amusing... oh, wait, she knows.. she always used to say how she didn't like texting. Somehow, though, it is creeping into her life. :D

  5. Hey, Bumpas, you stole what I was going to say. :| Oh well.

    Looks like that one snowball was an awesome shot - off of her back and into his face. In retrospect, that was a GREAT shot. :D

    By the way, that stir-fry looks amazing.

  6. Mumzie- I can still remember the first text message you sent. Outside the church steps with my phone ;)

  7. I think I remember hearing about that one... didn't Mumzie send one to me with your phone, Bumpas? Was that the one?
