Grandpa's in Africa

I am determined not to have the babies until my father-in-law comes back from Africa. He is there for over 2 weeks! Many people ask why he is Africa so often... I have two theories. He is either an Ambassador of a small nation, or he has begun dabbling in diamond dealing. I don't know... it's a toss up! I hope grandpa comes home safe! (Maybe with some diamonds for the girls).

The picture on the left tells me that he is a true blue, red-blooded, meat eating, american who is willing to travel to other countries to help them with their wildlife management. Herd size maintenance is VERY important. What a model citizen. Those babies are very lucky. I hope their dad can carry on that tradition.

Helping out other countries, supplying girls with diamonds, feeding your family are good. Shooting a water buffalo priceless! Stacey if the babies come too early I will personally go to Africa and get the other grandpa.

I love you very much Stacey. If I could reach you I would kiss you. Are you still mad at me for saying you hair was messy? I am not mad at you. Who is taking care of Brad now? Love Grandpa and Grandma Betty.

Brad thinks he is taking of himself, but we all continue to check up on him

If some of our teenage thrill seekers really want to get a thrill...let them go out into the north woods and go after the grizly bear, the polar bear, and the brown bear... it..it...it will cleanse the soul.

Only someone who has been there and had a close encounter with a rhino can know the draw that Africa has. Keeping the herd sizes down, as Nuge says, is always important too though!! I'm sure grandpa will come back with all kinds of "gifts & tokens" for the grandkids, we can only hope for diamonds for us girls, huh Stacey?? Always praying....

Diamonds? Great gifts for grandaughters. Of course the Moms can take good care of them till the girls are old enough to wear them, right Moms???
Have a good weekend T-Mom.
Always praying.

I have been very pleased with the work done by Mr. Pylman! I will send diamonds home with this great man upon the birth of his grandchildren.

Unfortunately, Nuge, the Thrillin' Threesome's daddy lacks in several categories pertaining to the successful harvesting of wild game. It's a recessive gene that skipped right by the Bartster. If this reporter had a dime for every one of Bart's blood trails left unrewarded he'd buy the diapers for the first year. Luckily his brother El Guapo makes Fred Bear look like Fred Flintstone so they'll be knee deep in vittles.

Many if African nation know well of Stacey's plight and have never heard in all of history of such a woman to have 3 childrens. Hear are some comments I've personally heard: Cowabunga humpp seacry pluattoo mummba magga.!! And also another said: Keewanie mustave baakie bonnett cumbie vindscreen mutasso.!! All translated mean: You're an unbelievable girl and are much loved and blessed by God and your loved ones and blessed family.!!

Hi there Stacey

Just a short note from the farm where your dad was, and believe me is waiting in great inticipation for A,B and C or April,May and June. I made sure I checked emails everyday to see is there was any news from your mom about you. Thankfully there was'nt. I think you are incredibly brave - 3 at once!!!! Well I sure hope that all is well and that when the three finally arrive we will be priviledge enough to get a photo or two from Grandpa and Granny. You have a wonderful father-in-law, and its was wonderful for him to be here with us in SA. Regards
