Here we go again…my little wooden ornaments obsession. Now I am in a whole new part of my country to shop for these wooden treasures. I was having a hard time finding some at the beginning of the year. I hardly found any at a huge Pickin event, and the antique stores I went into…

Happy December everyone.
Well, it’s here, our favorite month, at least for me that is. Maybe my husband and children like another month better, but I love December and April the most. They have always been my favorite months. I would have my greatest gifts of all that were given to me…my children. My daughter was born in…
Prayer request please.
Something really bad happened here in our country with two young people starting out their lives. They were attacked the day before Thanksgiving. My family and I were on the road when this happened and the next day when I woke up I heard the news and was saddened and shocked to hear what had…
The leaves are leaving the little lake.
There is a cold front headed our way so I walked down to the little lake to take a walk around all those colorful leaves that are still hanging in there before they’re all gone. When I opened all our curtains to let sunshine in early one morning, there was a fog that rolled in….
Little things to cheer your hearts this holiday season.

Back to the Fiber Fest.

An early morning Fall walk.
We are fitting walks back into our schedule. It’s just too pretty out there not to go on nature walks. So…back to walking we go. This walk I am sharing with you all isn’t at the Little Lake, its on another trail I like to walk. The trail is right next to a beautiful creek….
