And Another…

Tracy / January 26, 2014

I’ve been trying to talk Jon into losing this tooth, practically forever. I was hoping he would be our first to lose both front top teeth for Christmas. It just wasn’t meant to be. Sad, I know. He went to Joshua over the weekend and asked him to pull it for him. I guess it had finally decided it was…

I Can’t Remember …

Tracy / January 23, 2014

if I shared these gifts, or not! This has been one of the best Christmas gifts we have given our children in some time! The ants stay busy and provide spiritual lessons for our family. Ants work hard! It just happens that the week before the caterpillars arrived, we were reading about the life cycle of a butterfly. When they…

In the Mornings…

Tracy / January 23, 2014

even in the cold, when I go out into the yard, the girls run to the fence to greet me… I love our chickens!

It’s Finished…

Tracy / January 23, 2014

At least the outside. (This is the metal bender that has been in our yard the better part of the year…I’m wondering if it might be gone soon??) We also have a new door for the inner part of the basement. THAT is a huge improvement. It still needs paint and hardware but it’s up, and in place and just…

This time, we bit the bullet and pushed forward. Courtney made signs for the places we thought might not be safe for visitors. I’m so glad we…

Today’s OB Appointment

Tracy / January 14, 2014

Though I know pregnancy in your 40’s has a bad reputation, I can honestly say, this has been my best pregnancy to date! Today’s appointment found my blood pressure completely normal, and blood sugar lower than it has been with ANY of my other pregnancies. I had NO edema. The baby does have a two vessel umbilical cord but after…

My sweet friend Jan, gave me a very special gift for Christmas this year: She made the ladies in our church a coffee mug using this tutorial Courtney wrote on her blog! I just adore it!!! Thank you, Jan!

Quick House Update

Tracy / January 14, 2014

I wanted to stop in and share some photos from the weekend. We have our fellowship meeting tomorrow (Yes! We are still meeting….), so I’m short on time tonight but I wanted to share a few anyway! Paul “manned-up” the basement. As he was trying to hang a paper towel holder in the basement, it broke. He decided to make…
