  • Yes, There’s More…

    This weekend I had the pleasure of traveling to Louisiana with 2 good friends for a wedding.  It was a great trip!  God is so good to me and I’m learning repeatedly that He delights to give us wonderful gifts.  I was very happy to be asked along as I don’t often get to spend concentrated…

  • Finished…

    …finally!!!  Lynn and I’d been working on our bedroom since early spring and as of last week, it’s done!!  We’d love for you to come see it in person, but for those of you that can’t, I thought I’d share of few pictures here. This is the view from the bedroom door.  The half door…

  • Visitors!!

    Our aunt, Sue (whom we fondly call “Baby-Sue”), brought 7 of her children down for the evening to get hair cuts and visit at Ju-ju’s house.  It’s always a treat when they come down!    And this time I actually remembered to pull out the camera. Ridin’ the wagon down the slab’s a favorite pass…

  • THAT HORSE!!

    Oh, did I ever want to beat a horse!    With gas prices as high as they are, we came up with the bright idea to minimize our grass cutting by letting the animals out in the yard several times a week.  It does help to increase the time between cuttings and it is less wasteful…

  • Foolishness

    I was just pondering this statement I recently heard as I was preparing supper: Foolishness is doing the same thing over and over and expecting different results. Do you agree?  Best run before I burn something.    Let me know what you think.

    This past week the Lord Blessed and provided Daddy with a new job!  He’s been “unemployed” for quite some time now and though at the onset we were all rather apprehensive, this time of uncertainty has been very good.  I’ve had several days for the reality that Daddy will soon be working a “regular” job…

    My cousin, her children, a friend and her young brothers all came down for haircuts (Lynn has a salon off our house) and just good ole visiting late into the evening.  The kiddos had a ball and I thoroughly enjoyed myself right along with them!   You should’ve seen those 4 boys chasing the chickens with…

  • Will I Ever Learn to Listen?

    Okay, I’m standing in the grocery store in the cleaning supplies aisle and out of the blue I have this thought:  “You need to go ahead and buy the toilet bowl brush.”  Now, I’d been telling myself for several weeks I needed to replace that very necessary household item, but as I’m standing there, I…
