More pics from AR

Betty sent a few more pictures of Isaac. Looks like he is in "hog heaven" (such a country bumpkin thing to say!!) When you are in or even near Arkansas the hick just oozes out. For example, when we were driving up to Arkansas last week, Isaac started talking about going hunting. Gabe mentioned that he would have to wait for "winner" (translation..... winter) Funny thing is, we had just crossed the border in Texarkana. I had fun giving Gabe a hard time over that one!!

Here is Isaac riding the tractor with Pa. He LOVES to ride the tractor. Makes him feel like a big boy, helping out on the farm.


Here he is helping with the porch decking. Notice the two shirts he is wearing in the blazing heat. Don and Betty said he woke up that morning and insisted on wearing two shirts. Why? you might ask. Isaac told them he wanted to do that just like his Papa. Betty said they tried all day to get him to shed one of the shirts, but nope not my boy. He stuck to his decision. Have I mentioned that he is strong-willed. Hard to change his mind.

I am missing him more and more as the days go by. Don't think he is missing us much though. I tried to talk to him on the phone yesterday, but he was too busy to talk. I think Julia got the longest conversation out of him.

Isaac, if you are reading this...... I love you very much sweet boy and I will see you next week!!
