What Happy Is-The Josties

Really enjoyed this great song by the Jost family...a delightful, truth-proclaiming song, sung by the young Amy-Jo Jost. Her voice and the ukulele in this piece really grow on you if you listen more than once. Oh and nicely done video too. Enjoy! – Lisa

The Jost family have made some great videos that can be watched on their website at www.JostieFlicks.com

Conservation Club

Today was another wonderful day of fantastic weather so we headed to the property of the Conservation Club in Festus where we’re members.  We all visited the club for a couple of hours during that sunny, 70* period. We walked the trail and sat for a while "drinking in" the sunshine while Benjamin fished. club-1

Lydia found a frog to play with and had an absolute blast!

Andrew found some baby frogs for Lydia to play with...she gets very happy at the mention of the word "frog." At home, they like to get on our glass doors, so she runs to one of those doors when we say "frog." In this pic, the lake is behind her with the sunshine bouncing off creating a glow, and Andrew is holding a frog up near the camera which is why she is "smiling" for it.

Noah’s Broken Toe

close up broken toe

     Friday night, just before bed, Noah was hungry as usual.  Mom called downstairs to tell him that his sandwiches were ready.  As he rushed toward the stairs, he tripped and somehow his big toe curled-under and he landed with much of his weight on that still, curled-under toe. He lay on noah at erthe floor for a bit nursing his toe and indicated to Mom that he had "really" hurt it.  The toe began swelling right away.  With foot elevated, and a dose of Tylenol PM he got some rest.  He awoke through the night because of pain and to take more meds. 
Saturday afternoon, Mom decided that it may be best to get his foot x-rayed. 
     At the ER, they confirmed a break near the joint of where his toe meets his foot.  They put on a temporary cast and want him to see an orthopedic on Monday to have it replaced with a "real" cast.

     Mom stopped in at Bob Evans to pick up a slice of pumpkin pie for Noah (his favorite), on the way home from the hospital.
