Lucky

Playing with Lucky, the orphaned baby buffalo. Shelbyville, KY. We took a trip to Buffalo Crossing to see the animals.

Ah...Bluegrass...

June 19 - Trip to Kentucky to stay with Leslie's parents. We always like the getaway up here. I think Kentucky Bluegrass Horse country is one of the most beautiful places in creation. In the summer when the kids can play outside, it's a real time of R&R for all of us.

Thanks, Mom and Dad C!

9 Years and Counting

Our 9th wedding anniversary. June 1, 2005.

Inspiration

Okay, so my very talented brother and his family make their blog feel like the best of summer-time reading and coffee table photo books. We thought we'd share the moment and put the other half of the Easley grandkids out on the web. The name's no copycat, either. Easley Crew is Leslie's doing. 'Crew' as in 'a company of people associated together'. That's probably because having three under-6 kids full of spirit and vigor is more than the sum of its parts. [All parents of multiple children sagely nod their heads...] So, we're the Easley Crew, or, according to the latest voicemail greeting at our casa de la alegría (house of joy), the Easley Zoo complete with the simian sound effects.

So, read on, enjoy the ride. We're a family who loves God, one another, and the world around us and we are raising young men and women who will go out and have an impact on that world in the years ahead. Hopefully along the way, Dad will learn to laugh more, play harder, attain the patience of Noah, the wisdom of Solomon, and the wit of Mark Twain.
