Jun. 14, 2009 - Update and Comic relief :)

Sorry to those of you who actually read my blog!  Life has been hectic lately.  My grandpa has cancer, and as of today it looks like he won't survive past this week.  Please pray for him and for our family especially.

So...what have I been doing this summer so far?  First of all Daniel, Emily, my mom and I have volunteered at Rock Ledge Ranch for this summer.  We get to dress up in period clothing, give tours of the historic buildings there at the Ranch, do demonstrations, and Emily and Daniel get to play in the mud. (Emily works in the garden and Daniel works at the cabin)  I'm a little disappointed that I don't get to play in the mud too, but oh well. :)  

At the gift shop at Rock Ledge Ranch I found this really neat little whistle for only $2!  It's wooden, and is played just like an Irish Whistle.  It's slightly out of tune, but is fine as long as I'm not playing with anyone else.

That's what's been going on here.  Oh and, by the way, IF YOUR LAST NAME IS ORFIELD YOU HAVE TO COMMENT.  Just thought I should add that.  And for comic relief:

I can't decide which one to post, so I'll post both.

Tim Hawkin's  'Subway'  and 'Imagine'

Well, my last name is Orfield, so I guess I have to write something...

We'll definitely be praying for your Grandpa and all of you. You're volunteering sounds really interesting - I'd love to see you all dressed up and giving tours.

Oh, and I was just kidding about this being obligatory :)

Noah-
Thanks for the comment! I was kinda hoping your sisters would comment too...

You should come to Rock Ledge Ranch during a special event like 4th of July. That would be a lot of fun. :)
