God's goodness



I tell you what, God is good. We were ready to try to find a new truck- not a "new" one but new to us, understand. Last weekend, God showed us a 4 wheel drive truck that was not only in our price range, but was truly the desire of Steven's heart. We pray it is covered in God's protection and favor. We're grateful to God for His provision and wisdom through the years that enabled this to happen. Glory to God.
Now we are trusting God to help sell Steven's white truck... know anyone interested?

Eagle sighting


We saw two eagles on our way to Eureka yesterday afternoon! Hopefully soon we can get out on the boat to go watch for them (once all the ice is off the lake).

The hopes of a garden

ah, in between chores around the house this morning I'm talking with the home econ group about a seed exchange and looking over the UofA extension pages on frost dates and monthly garden to-do guides! love it!
Last week, we received a Burpee seed catalog! I have to admit it was my bedtime reading material. ha ha. I've got to sit down and plan the garden and order seeds!
Now, we need some calm weather on a weekend so Steven and I can get outside and get started on prepping the garden.

NEW YEAR


Ok, I know it's been a while since I've posted. I've been preoccupied. I had minor surgery to remove an ovarian cyst two weeks before Christmas, so I've been focused on recovery. Two days before getting my stitches out I cut the tip of my thumb off while chopping onions to make chili. So now I am learning to slowly do things without the use of that thumb as it heals.

But, this is a new year with new hope, faith and expectations of good things from God.
Here are a picture of today's snow.
