It has been ages since I have written,. To those who have wondered where I went. I have just been working really hard. We as a family have change a lot in the past several months.
One thing before I forget our show came one again. I am getting Married and I am a polygamist. For those who have seen is it was great and for those who missed it hopefully it will be one again. It turned out a lot better then I thought it would.
Groups have sprung up and died as we have many false and deceitful people out there. The Society of Polygamist leaders led by the fraud and conman Dale Gill was a welcomed death. It seemed his idea of making it rich off of the online community was a flop when there wasn't enough contributors to keep it open. It brings me to the thought. I have seen many websites that the owners often try to solicit money. some are genuine in there efforts to keep there pages open but their are some that have no business in these efforts. they like to cause drama with people that are not supporting their cause.
In on group Polygamy HQ run by Miguel Marie who has a face book page as well as web site caused a lot of Drama for our family in his efforts. He seemed to not like my third wife Julie and tried to slander her on his Facebook page claiming that she was a person who goes by the online persona of Sunny Day. That was the first attack when he posted a fake web site claiming that Julie had sold land to Mark Henkel and that her alias was Sunny Day. Well it turns out he and Dale Gill we trying to merge their too sites,... go figure talk about crawling in bed with the Devil.
With all that and Julie was pregnant and birth our son Rowen we stepped back a little bit. You have to at time with all the drama that other throw at you.
Oh yes Julie was pregnant and we added Rowen Malachi Austin to the family. Big change we are fast out growing our house.
Ange works Full time so that is always helpfule.
Another thing that has happened was that Moroni and some elders from his community came up and seal the wives to me during May. For those that are non-Mormon that is making an eternal marriage. there is more to it but not sure if I can repeat it here. It was wonderful to have these great men come up.
It is my promise to start blogging more and keep everyone abreast of what is going on with the family.

The Austin's in the Shadow of persecution
Wow it has been a while since I last bloged. Time flies when you busy I guess. Or perhaps time just got away from me. It isn't because all of a sudden we got boring. There is tons of stuff always going on in our little part of the world and online in others.
Lately what we have been dealing with is an enemy whom we don't know whether someone that we have angered or an Angry and nosy neighbor.
This person or persons sent an anonymous letter to the police and social service about our family and it's composition. This cause a Detective to come to our house and also visits from social workers.
I think they were hoping that the kids would be taken away from us and or arrested. So far nothing has happened but interviews and the Detective.
The Wives already had there's and today I had mine. It went OK. I think everything will be fine. Under Wisconsin law we can not be prosecuted for Bigamy as there is not marriage licenses other then the one I have with the legal first wife. So the likely hood that this will go anywhere is almost Nil.
The social workers seems to be prepared to work with us and not remove the children, Which is good they are doing a detailed instigation to make sure the children are fine and that we are a functioning family.
Si we are intending the Lord to shield us and protect us through all of this.

It's been like five weeks since I last post. So time for updates.
Work is going great and we are working at getting bills caught up. Family really misses me at work so much. Kids are getting antsy about being at home so much. Victoria is out of school or the summer.
The reason that the kids are and wives are going stare crazy is that we don't have our van. The white one is wrecked and not worth the $700 the mechanic wants to charge to fix the front end. Not to mention it needs a front alignment and tires. Our blue van is still in the shop. a year and a half since I paid $1500 in advance to get the engine replaced. It had to have body work so the Mechanic can hoist the body up so he can pull the engine. very frustrating in that he is dragging his feet. What I get for feeling sorry for the man and paying him in advance will part in advance.
The long story short about this is that he was a member of the Church of latter day saints Kettle Moraine ward. I felt sorry for him cause several low income families in the church were stiffing him out of labor cost to keep their cars running. I did the guy a favor and now I get crap cause we have Zoo passes and museum passes for us and the kids and we can't go. I thought I could expect better behavior out of an LDS member but I was wrong.
Not saying that I took it laying down, I made him rid up with me to fix the White Ford Van when it threw a pulley and the family was a couple of cities away. I also had him tow the White van when it was wrecked. When he offered to fix it for $700 I told him I wanted the blue van back. That was like 5 weeks ago.
I have decided that in four weeks I will have the money to pay another Mechanic. to fix it. Then I will give him an ultimatum. Finish it or I pull it out of his shop and take him to court.
On the good side I am really happy about work. I work hard as anyone knows it takes money to run a plural family. running a house hold with three wives and 5 children is pretty rough at times. none of us were born into this and we learn as we go.

A Day of Mixed Blessings
At 6:40 am this morning, driving west bound on I94 and preparing to turn on the exit to highway 45 north the car came toa halt and not realizing that the car in front of me actually cam to a stop and not slowed down, I rearended him at low speeds. I was driving the families 1997white Ford Areostar. well to put a long story short it was a three care accident and I don't know if he hit the car in front of him before I hit him. The Guy didn't have insurance and the police officer had his car towed. the impact damaged my radiator and the grill was knock in. Radiator fluid spilled out. Well that ended the trip to work with the Areostare I called my wife Angela to take me in to work and had my mechanic deal with getting the van to his shop. Not sure what the blue book is on the van but if it cost more then $300 to fix then it isn't worth it.
So that is how my day started. I was 30 mins late to work when I am usally 15 mins early. Now I was sore and working and down one vehicle in a family of nine soon to be ten. because I was the one that rear ended the car I got the ticket. that's another $200.
Well Now that the bad stuff got out of the way, I suppose we can get to the good stuff.
For the last two weeks I have been courting a maintenance position at a food plant in southern Wisconsin. Yesterday Afternoon I went down to their plant for an interview and the HR called at 1:05 pm offering me a position on their maintenance team. hat is a $3 more an hour where I am currently working at Briggs and Stratton. Well of course I accepted and since Briggs was only through a temp service I told them I would be able to start Monday.
With the new wage and lots of overtime the Austin family will be able to move forward and bring our planes to fruitation.
I give the glory to our father in Heaven for allowing me to have this and many other wonderful opportunities.......

Days and Days
Well here I am on unempoloyment again. Talgo's maintenance contract was canceled by the State of Wisconsin so that ment Layoffs. Whats been on the families mind is that we may need to relocat to find work so the family can survive, We are good for now, but time will tell.
Brandy's pregancy is doing well. The wives are starting to look at baby clouthes. For Julie and Brandy that is a big step for them. Ange is worried that her baby makeing days might be over and julie had a miscarriage last year. So Brandy being pregant does effect them to a degree. So there is tension in the house over Brandy being pregant and Ange and Julie are working though it. I am proud of the fact that they are working through it.
overall we as a family is excited about baby #6 due to arrive in September. we have some adusting to go through, Willow. Julie's duaghter, says the baby is hers Brandy is just carrying it. We think it's cute.
We put Victoria back in public school last fall. I am very disapointed in her chioce of friends and her acting out at home. I think next year we are going to do home school with her again.
