Yummy! It is really hard to beat chocolate chip cookies fresh from the oven. Especially, with a glass of milk. And, I think that’s a fact. My son has been studying fact and opinion-I will have to ask him!

Gazing at the Baby in the Manger
I want to see the baby in the manger, yes, I do, I want to gaze upon him with a child’s eyes and view, I want to see him all wrapped up in his swaddling clothes, I want to gaze upon his little fingers and his toes, I want to smooth his hair, all […]
My Babies
This picture hangs on my bedroom wall. And I’m wondering where the time has gone?!!
Things Making Me Happy Today
These things are blessing my day today and making me happy-a mix of Christmas music playing..Martina McBride, Chris Tomlin, Antrim Mennonite Choir, Casting Crowns, listening to my kids’ happy chatter and make-believe as they play Playmobil, candles flickering and glowing-delightfully- of course!, putting up Christmas decorations, rain outside, my cozy, cozy wood stove, relaxing, seeing God’s […]
Milo Harvest
Finally, I am getting some pictures of milo harvest posted.. I don’t end up at the field as much when Matthew is cutting milo as I do when we are cutting wheat or cutting our irrigated circle. Cutting milo is just different. It usually involves cooler to colder weather and shorter days of cutting compared […]
Happy First Day of December!
It’s December and Christmas time is coming! *drawing and decorating by r.j.f
Buddy Davis
I like words. I like words that are put together in fun ways. I also like catchy tunes and fun songs…especially kid’s songs! So, when we first heard Buddy Davis’ songs, I liked them. Because all of the above describes his songs. Plus, he is all about Creation and our Creator and I am all about that, […]
If…
If you wake up kind of grumpy and out of sorts… And, If you have a headache and pressure and popping in your ears, And, If you are stressed about things you can’t change anyway and shouldn’t be stressed about, but should just be trusting your heavenly Father, And, If there are circumstances going on in […]
We Cooked, We Gave Thanks, We Ate, We had Leftovers,
Matthew 14:20 And they did all eat, and were filled; and they took up of the fragments that remained twelve baskets full.
Lego Crane
My son has enjoyed watching YouTube videos with his dad, of kids showing their farm sets or Lego sets and explaining how they made them or what they did or other details. He and his sister have also enjoyed making video stories with his Lego sets. They love to shoot videos and then love to […]
Happy Thanksgiving!
Father, we praise you for life and for love, Father we praise you in heaven above, Father, we praise you for your mighty power, Father, we praise you this day and this hour, Father, we thank you, for we’re richly blessed, Father, we’re sheltered, we’re fed and we’re dressed, Father, we thank you for sunshine […]
Thanksgiving Day Food
Over the river, and through the wood, When Grandmother sees us come, She will say, “Oh, dear, the children are here, Bring a pie for everyone.” Over the river, and through the wood— Now Grandmother’s cap I spy! Hurrah for the fun! Is the pudding done? Hurrah for the pumpkin pie! ~Lydia Marie Child What […]
Chocolate Malts
I love me a good ole chocolate malt. But not all chocolate malts are created equal. Not at all. I’ve had some chocolate malts that were called chocolate malts, but really all they were was a chocolate shake. Which is good, but not nearly as good as a chocolate malt. Not nearly. The malt flavor […]
Blogs..
You know what I like about blogs? I like how a blog lets you peek into someone else’s world. It gives you a glimpse of their life or world. Of the things they like or do. It gives me a taste of things that I don’t do at all. Or it lets me empathize with […]
Under The Rubble
I can not imagine being trapped under the rubble of an earthquake. I can’t imagine needing serious medical help and not having any help available. I’m sure no one ever visualizes this happening to them. And, we can’t go through life expecting the worse. Not only does this make life miserable, but it exercises a […]
My Favorite Dishcloths Ever!
My Grandmother sent these new dish cloths to me with my Mother. These are my very favorite kind of dish cloths. My Mother taught me how to knit them several years ago, but I haven’t actually made one for a long time. My Grandma spends quite a bit of time knitting dish cloths and hands them out to […]
