Ecclesiastes 4:12 (NLT)

"A person standing alone can be attacked and defeated, but two can stand back-to-back and conquer. THREE are even better, for a triple-braided cord is not easily broken."

Home on the Range - Part 2

This past Saturday, some good friends of ours had a Beach Blast on one of the sandbars on Missouri River so Dave and I loaded up the kiddos for an afternoon of sun, water & good times. Papa Clark gave us his boat for the day which was really nice of him (thanks again, Papa!!). It was a perfect sunny day and we had a great time. LTD had so much fun driving the boat (with Dad's help), meeting new friends, playing in the sand/mud, playing fun new games, finding toads and getting as dirty as possible. Taylor found a toad she just had to take home with her. When we dropped the kiddos off across the river with Grandma Good at dinner time (Dave and I stuck around for the bonfire), Taylor plead to keep the toad and Grandma approved. As we loaded them up in the car, Taylor's toad jumped out of her hand inside Grandma's car and was MIA. Oops! Thankfully, we found it but unfortunately the toad's life was short-lived. Seems that Taylor handled the toad a bit too much and most likely squished it to death. When they got home, they buried it in the garden and Taylor made sure to pray for the poor toad that night. Below are a few photos from the day.
