It has been a very busy few days around our place,  I am proud and pleased to announce that at 11:07 a.m in the morning of August 8th Noah Jeffery Storzebach arrived weighing 8 pounds and 11 oz. He was healthy and full of life as he made his entrance into the world. I was privileged to have been beside my Summer’s side during the labor and the delivery along with her husband Tyler.  So you can imagine what it has been like around here. Noah and Summer came home on Sunday afternoon and so far things have been gong pretty smoothly for them. Since Summer and her husband Tyler live here on the property but in their own home it has worked out nicely that I can be this close, because she is still nervous and full of concerns and questions like all first time moms. Here are a couple of pictures I would like share with you.

Preparedness, when properly pursued, is a way of life, not a sudden, spectacular program. -- Spencer W. Kimball, 1976
