Green wheat glistening, Baby wheat blossoming, Slight breeze whispering, Tis truly amazing, Makes my heart sing, Thanksgiving to the mighty King, As I stand reflecting, On all the good He’s done for me. Let my praise pour out from me. Let me count my blessings. With upturned eyes, honoring, In His presence, glorying. Copyright secured by Digiprove © 2015
An Inspired Room {Studio and Guest Room}
I’m sharing some pictures of one of my inspired rooms in my home! I’m joining in on the inspired room tour over at The Inspired Room blog in honor of Melissa Micheal’s new book which released this month! The book’s title is The Inspired Room. I pre-ordered it a while back from CBD and I’m anxiously awaiting […]
There Was Milo To Cut
There was milo to cut. So my farmer man, he cut it. The grain cart and tractor needed a driver. So my son, he drove it. There was a farmer husband and a tractor-cart driving son who were hungry and needed some food. {And some tea.} So Mrs. Farmwife, she took them some. There […]
In Our Wardrobe {No. 10}
This is an autumn outfit that I put together on one of those just-right fall days. The perfect kind, that I would gladly take for at least ten months out of the year. Enough of a cool tinge that a light cardigan is cozy, but still warm enough to slip on flip-flops! I’m wearing the […]
Our Dog, Cooper
Just a little dog. But a much loved, little dog. I didn’t know it then, of course, but these were the last pictures I took of our Cooper dog. My farmer man found him curled up over at the farm on Saturday evening. He looked like he was sleeping. In a sense I suppose he […]
Yarn Along {The Princess and the Baby}
Isn’t it so pretty? All the yarn stuffed and smooshed together. The textures and colors!! {swoon} I tried another new knitting pattern. You can find it over here at The Sitting Tree on Etsy. I think I messed up a little at the beginning. I’ve been learning some new stitches and steps. I’ve been muttering to […]
In Which I Chat About Money Making Mom
I’ve mentioned in a couple of my Yarn Alongs, that I was reading Money Making Mom. It releases today! So, I’m going to talk a bit more about the book and about doing things we love, earning income in various ways and figuring out what fits for us and for the specific season of life […]

Memoir Monday {No. 95}
Another week! I found these bamboo clothespins at World Market. I’m excited to give them a try. Most likely not until next spring, though we do keep having really, really pretty days. We made cornmeal rolls in the shape of acorns and leaves. They turned a little wonky when they raised, but were fun just […]
Happy November
Happy November! Ours started off with sunshine and just the most beautiful weather! I showed these knitted leaves in my Yarn Along post last week. I restyled the coffee table and tucked them in. Then I picked up my camera and took beauty shots. I’ve decided that fall decor is fun because the fall […]
Baby Shower Pictures
One of my long-time friends had her first baby the end of August. A boy! A couple other friends helped me and we held a baby shower for her in my basement, in September. My pictures aren’t all that great. I was too busy to stop and take good photos like I really wanted […]
In Our Wardrobe {No.9}
I said last week that this vest was a favorite versatile layering item of mine! Here I am in it again! I like things I can mix and match. I really do like it. I have a comfy 3/4 tee under it from Christopher & Banks. This skirt came from Dress barn several years ago […]
Let’s Prowl the Porch
Let’s take a little prowl around my porch. The look of September and October has grasped it! Lovely gourds and pumpkins, and flowers that have a wild, end-of-summer beauty. Though winter is the only season I’m glad to see leave and I’m usually grasping the coattails of whichever one is on the way out, […]
Yarn Along {Doctor Dan}
Morty has something to show you. It’s leaves!!! I’m so excited about them. I saw them on a couple of bloggers’ feeds on Instagram and I was intrigued. They are so cute and I thought they looked fun to try. The pattern was on Ravelry. If you’re interested pop over there and search veined leaf […]
Just a Good Book For Mamas {Hoodwinked}
Hoodwinked. What does the word, or in this case, Book Title, conjure up in your mind? A simple definition for hoodwink is to deceive or trick. A few synonyms that caught my attention are bamboozle, beguile, bluff, fake out, snooker and suck in. Read them again. Bamboozle, beguile, bluff, fake out, snooker and suck in. […]
