Lazy Mornings

Tracy / January 23, 2013

Perhaps, one of my favorite things in life is when the children pile into our bed early, each morning. I admire Jacob’s balancing skills. Zoe, our young kitty, not so much.

While I’m recovering, I’ve been making numbers for our house- Some wood, some paint, brass numbers from Walmart….a new craft project makes anyone feel better.

Celebrating

“A good name is more desirable than great riches; to be esteemed is better than silver or gold.” –Proverbs 22:1 …a homemade gift for Jessa’s sweet friend

Dearest Friends

Tracy / January 14, 2013

We have the *very* best friends. A casserole the week I hurt my foot. Soup earlier this week, a phone call and visit that led to these tasty treats: Notes of encouragement…phone calls just to check on us. We are blessed. We are blessed. We are blessed.
