Jace & I are visiting Wray. Joel left for Texas again on Friday. This is his fourth trip there in three months. We keep hoping that his company will get some jobs closer to home but for now it seems the work is all near El Paso. So, Jace & I are spending a few days at the grandparents' house in Wray.
Today we had Sunday dinner at Grandma and Grandpa Courtney's house. Jace sat in the wooden high-chair that two generations of kids before him have been in. I believe Mom (Joy) was the first then Lea Ann, Mark, Julie, Me, Dan, Matt, Curt, Andrea, Lily & Patrick and now Jace. I'm sure there were also some cousins in that list. 
It was cool to see the little chair back in its place at the end of the table. Grandma Courtney had to rig a seat belt out of a towel and Jace still slides around some. We had a delicious dinner and Jace played with Grandma and smiled at Papa.
I snapped a couple photos of a wild turkey in the field across from my parent's house. It was just wandering around out there oblivious to the fact that Thanksgiving is so close and he is on the menu.
Grandpa Doug is working long days harvesting corn. Today was a beautiful day and he said they did pretty well until evening when the header broke down. He came home and played with Jace for a bit before bedtime. Jace is fascinated with remove controls (already!!!). Dad (Grandpa Doug) was showing him how to work the vibration control on the big chair. Then they looked at a storybook. It was a nice day.
