Thankful Thursday…and today I am so thankful for my class of Junior Crusaders that I could just giggle – because they always giggle….which makes me giggle! For the past 18 years (or so), I have had the blessing of teaching one of our children’s classes that meet during our mid-week…

A Prayer Request
It has been just about a month now that I have been blogging…and what fun it has been. I have especially had fun “meeting” new friends and following their blogs for so many fun ideas for the home and family, lots of really yummy recipes, or just a good story…
Front Porch on Parade
I learned about something fun yesterday from Kelli’s blog …. it was Front Porches on Parade! Kelli’s porch is beautiful and inviting – mine is quite a bit smaller but with its happy little scarecrow, a mum and and some pumpkins (even a white one!)..it says “home” to us. And…
The Tiny Impatiens
Imagine my surprise when I came home the other day and there to greet me was this sweet little impatiens…growing out of the crack beside our sidewalk! Blooming as pretty as you please in the middle of October seemingly from the concrete! Granted we usually plant a bed of impatiens…but…

Corn Chowder
Well…it certainly does not FEEL like a fall day here – another delightful, almost 80 degree day – but I’m not complaining. Even with the warm weather, here is what’s cooking for dinner….homemade soup!! So yummy! The ingredient list seems long but don’t be fooled – it really is not…
A Treasure Hunt
I spent this past weekend so very heavy hearted..deeply burdened and worried. I tried repeatedly to give my burdens to the Lord but seemed to hold onto them even as I prayed. But, instead of growing impatient with me, God showed Himself faithful and gave me some very clear truths…
