Every year when harvest is finished, the last acre cut, last bushel deposited in the truck to head to town, my heart wells thankfulness and at some point my tongue gives voice to a favorite old hymn of mine. “The God of harvest praise, In loud thanksgiving raise, Hand, Heart and Voice………” Harvest is […]

Orange Garland and Joy to the World Advent Book {Pages and Projects}
For two or three years now, I’ve thought very much about purchasing the Advent study from She Reads Truth, but so far I never had. I love the Christmas season, but it adds extras and I didn’t know if I would get the study done. We often travel and I always had other Bible studies […]

Yarn Along {Once Upon a Time Storybook Bible}
Isn’t this camper pillow the most fun?! It’s from my sister’s shop over here at Sew a Fine Seam. I snagged it {not literally}{well, not in the literal pull-a-thread kind of snaggy way} while we were in Ohio because it was the perfect gift for a friend. I love the springy colors and all the […]
