Hello! I don't have too many photos to share from this week. Covid went through our household which meant plans were cancelled for the week and my husband worked from home. Thankfully, we all had mild cases with just cold-like symptoms so we were able to get a pretty good bit of work done at home. Yard Work I took this picture the day after Joel tested positive for Covid. He can't be kept down for long. Incidentally, his shirt (a t-shirt my daughter gave him) says "The Man, The Myth, The Legend". I think he's living up to that! ***** The Big Summer Cleanout! Every summer the kids and I do a major cleaning out of all rooms, closets, cabinets, and drawers. ... Read more
Snapshot Saturday
Hello, Saturday friends! I have several snapshots from our week. It was busy with work but also some nice little breaks and visits here and there. Kitten on the Keys We are having so much fun with our little animals. Floyd the kitty is just so funny! He zooms all around like a ping pong ball all over the house. I was in the kitchen one day and heard a plink-plink coming from the piano. I turned to see Floyd was tiptoeing across the piano keys, so I grabbed my phone and snapped a photo. What a cutie. ***** Tea with Friends My tea ladies met for lunch which is always a treat! We enjoyed a full lunch from scones to finger sandwiches to mini desserts. My tea blend of ... Read more
Snapshot Saturday: Lovin’ Summer
Good Saturday morning to ya! Here is a snapshot of our week with just a few of the summery things I’m lovin’! Fresh Peaches I think peaches are the taste of summer! We haven't made it to our favorite Peach Park yet but it's on our bucket list and I've been purchasing peaches from Aldi to hold us over until we get there. We are eating them on salads, yogurt, cereal, and just by themselves! And because I'm in such a peachy mood these days, I brought home this peach candle, also from Aldi. It smells so sweet and summery! ***** Evening Glow I love to be outside at the end of the day when it's just about dark but not quite. The frogs, crickets, and cicadas are all ... Read more
Snapshot Saturday: Ch-Ch-Ch-Changes
My apologies if I've put a certain song in your head now just after reading the title of this blog, but we had a lot of changes around here lately, so I've been singing this tune all week, haha. Sunrises I'll start with a snapshot of something that does and doesn't change: the sunrise. I walk most weekday mornings and I snap a photo of the sunrise almost every time because each morning's sunrise is unique from the previous day's and the next day's. Some sunrises are bright and fiery, some are soft and purple, and some are muted with fog. But what doesn't change is the fact that the sun does still rise EVERY day! That's because it's kept in motion by an unchanging Creator. God says ... Read more
Snapshot Saturday: Hello, Summer!
Good morning! The wedding posts are still in the works and will pick back up next week, but for today I'm sharing a few snapshots of the week. When I did this several weeks ago as "Friday Five", I had several friends tell me they enjoyed it, so I've decided to make it a regular. Most bloggers post their weekly photo summary on Fridays but I'm going to make mine on Saturdays to keep Fridays open for "Fluff the Nest" posts. So here goes! With the wedding behind us, we feel like we finally began our summer break this week. The fun activities, slow mornings, summery foods, and evenings outdoors with crickets singing. Ahhh, I love it so! Summer Grilling We grill year around, but ... Read more
