Farewell Old Dryer . . .

. . . Hello, new one! Well, new to us. My friends have known for over a year that I've been keeping the dryer door shut with duct tape and that it takes FOREVER to dry a load. So, when they saw one at a garage sale last weekend, they let me know - good friends! I know what you're thinking. "You got a dryer at a garage sale?" Well, let me tell you - it looks brand new to me -and I got it for only $50! It is a marked improvement over our other one (which, by the way, had been used to store dog food in before we had it)! I used the new one today - and it works fabulously! Maybe since we got such a good deal on this dryer, we can look for a brand new washer . . .

New Dryer (without the tape)

  1. Your old dryer is just like mine...that I got at a garage sale for $50 before Matthew and I got married! I have to have a plastic knife taped (with duct tape - of course!) to the safety switch inside the door to make mine run (otherwise it thinks the door is still open and won't turn on!). Mine still dries well though! :)

Surprise!

Well, I sure don't get surprised very often, but Saturday night was a huge surprise to me! I thought I was heading to Hesston for an AGCO Christmas Dinner with Chelan. He told me we needed to drop something off at Ben and Tina's house (my cousin), first. Okay, no big deal! While we were there, Ben said they were about ready to go out for dinner, did we want to come along? Surprisingly, Chelan thought about it and wanted to do it (clue #1 that something was up). I kept saying that we couldn't skip out on his dinner, but Chelan insisted that going to Wichita for dinner would be much more fun. I even said, "This seems like something you had planned!" However, I'm always up for dinner in Wichita, so I agreed, reluctantly!! We enjoyed a meal at Hangar 1 Steakhouse and I thought that was the end of it. But, on the way home, Chelan asked if we could go by the new arena since the inaugural concert was there that night -- Brad Paisley! I thought it would be f...

Spring Art

While Mrs. Schmidt was away on maternity leave during the spring, Mr. Novak (from Hesston) filled in for her. Since Cambry has her first 3 class periods in the art room, she got to know him very well and he mentioned several times how he appreciated Cambry's artistic style and way of thinking. He even let her paint a little bit on his own pieces! Cambry took several pieces to the WSL art festival in April. She came home with a first place finish in the graphic design category and an honorable mention in the computer design category. We are so thankful for the instruction she has received over the last 4 years in Goessel. Now, on to Hesston College with Professor Cross!

Off and Running!

A month into the school year and everyone seems to be clicking along . . . at least for now! We caught up with Cambry today, now in a room of her own for the very first time! She is enjoying her esports team, particularly making the social media posts and taking pictures for the team. She gets some Rocket League time in as well! And she has access to the art building pretty much when she wants it! Caiden is doing his thing at K-State and at athletic events again. And Delaney is trying to do every possible activity available in high school. Of course, her top priority is volleyball, and right now, her team is 2nd overall in 1A-1 and recently won their home tournament for the first time since 2017! And, Kenya is growing like a weed!
