John 8:11 “Anyone here who has never sinned can throw the first stone at her.”

God is into the business of restoration.....may we be ever so grateful and humbled by His mercy and grace!

Our electric was out from about 5:30- 9:30 PM last night...it could have been much worse if the babies were here....thank goodness they went home earlier in the afternoon!

Today we are going to a farm sale preview that is suppose to have small hay wagons for sale...hmmmm, we will see!

There is a forecast of no rain today and a high of 80 degrees....could it possibly be true?

Have a blessed day!

The babies are coming the babies are coming.....

The Columbus grandchildren are spending the night tonight....I hope the rain stops long enough to let us go to the Quarry and hike the trails!

Timmy will hide in his shop and the kids and I will play....school, create in the studio, play monster and eat junk food :) that is just the way it is!

Yesterday I worked all day on photos and Project Life and accomplished much. It felt good!






































Have a blessed day.

“The grace of our Lord was poured out on me abundantly, along with the faith and love that are in Christ Jesus.” (I Timothy 1:14)

It is never too late to turn your life around....just believe in His power to do the miraculous in you :)


Saturday was my youngest grandson Carrig's 1st birthday and his baptism @St Agatha's Catholic Church. I am sooo grateful to God that all of my grandchildren are being raised Christian....He is a rewarder of those who put their trust in Him!!




There were about 50 people at the cookout and he managed to eat the WHOLE small cake he was given....talk about a sugar high ;)

Psalm 25:1-2: “Lord, I give myself to You, my God. I trust You.”

Trust in God and be Blessed beyond measure :)

“If my people, who are called by my name, will humble themselves and pray…then I will hear from heaven.” (II Chron. 7:14 NIV)

The house is clean, the food is cooking, the ice is chilling the drinks...it is a holiday...
a time of celebrating with family and friends.

My sister and family are visiting from TX and all the family will be here soon...

I am grateful for my family and for the blessed life we are privileged to live in the United States. We all need to pray for the leaders of our country especially the President, Senate and Congress that they may lead in peace.  In our governments peace we have peace as a nation.

Happy 4th of July America!

Psalm 56:3, “When I am afraid, I put my trust in you.”

After the passing of my only son in a car wreck 9 years ago fear for my loved ones has become a daily occurrence as I wake up......my only consolation is that when it occurs I immediately hand it over to my dear Holy Spirit.

 Recognizing an emotion such as fear is the first step. Allowing yourself to experience it builds empathy in your heart for those going through similar circumstances so that God can use it for the good of others. Nothing that we give to Him returns void!

Paul said in Galatians 6:14: “The cross of our Lord Jesus Christ is my only reason for bragging.”
