Sunday nite was fantastic! The weather was perfect, Andy saved us a fabulous spot, the band rocked, the fireworks were phenomenal! Steven and Karen rode a segway. That was pretty cool! The helmet didn't fit Steven's head so it sat on top of his head. ha ha! Pastor baptized over 100 people under the crosses, isn't that wonderful?

Fireworks at the Crosses

Casting Crowns!
Summer has begun!
Wow! I really don't enjoy the heat of summer. We've been eating from our garden, which I love. Delicious salads with cucumbers, green beans and yellow squash (fried, not in our salad). The zucchini and tomatoes are growing quickly. Our grapes were doing very well, but apparently deer and/or birds like them so may not end up with very many. I accidently ran into the gray fox the other day while taking alex down to check the mail. Yeah, scary. Although, the little fox seemed as scared of me as I was of him.
Steven's brother Lee, Sandy, and Joness came to visit from Alabama. We took Joness to his first baseball game. I think he loved the ice cream best. ha ha
Steven took me over to the field where Cybil the bison is, because she came and let Steven pet her and I REALLY wanted to do that, but she and her baby wouldn't come to the fence to see me.
Last week was challenging, physically speaking, but I am full of hope that this week will be better. I'm looking forward to prayer time with "my girls" tuesday morning.
The best thing about it is no matter how I feel each day, God is here beside me and He's given me His Comforter who truly helps me throughout it all- at least handle it with some grace.
Sunday was father's day and Steven's dad came over for a visit. It was a great time for Steven. They checked out the garden, bees, the storage building steven built. I'm glad he could come over.

Home this spring
Finished Porch
June!
What a beautiful morning! I took alex for a short walk and sat on the front porch this morning before the humidity and heat got too much for my liking. The wildflower bed is full of black eyed susans. White lilies are blooming down at the driveway and the veggie garden is growing. Thank God. Last year, we had no veggies and I hated it. Our potatoes are blooming. I'm anxious to harvest fingerlings and purple potatoes.

blueberry pie
Just had to share a photo of my first blueberry pie I made last week. It was GOOD! Steven and I had a blast on his vacation, even though we did a ton of work around the house. Still tons to be done!
It has turned to summer so quickly. We missed spring with all the rain.
Thankful for our home, the trees, quiet and peacefulness God has blessed us with.
Ok, now don't lean over your keyboard while checking out the pie-- you'll drool. ha ha
