The Birds are Back!
The birds have not had to come to our feeders the past few months because of all the grain in the fields – plus some of them were living north of us – but now they are back. The House Finches have been here all summer, but rarely needed to come to the feeders. I […]
Anthony and Jasmine’s Visit & A New Great-Grandbaby
We had fun with Anthony the other day while his mom took baby Jasmine to the doctor for a routine visit. After watching two Paw Patrol shows, we spent an hour on the floor with a construction and trucking “business”. I had the supplies, he drove truck or train to deliver things to a zoo […]
Birthday Party for Peyton & Bailey
Sunday, November 3 We always enjoy being invited to their birthday party – because we get to visit with Jakey and Crystal’s family.

Bailey and Peyton with their birthday cupcakes. […]
Happy Birthday to Our Favorite Chris

Flowers
Saturday, November 2 Cerwin came home from the grocery store with a bouquet of flowers for me. He knows I like flowers in the house when the weather is cold outside. I teased him, “So what did you do wrong?” He smiled and said, “They are just in case I do something wrong.” 🙂 The […]
Bare Branches are in Style Again
Saturday Morning, November 2 As I watched another pretty sunrise a few days ago, I thought, “It looks like bare branches are in style again.” It appears that the squirrels have not yet captured all the shellbarks or hickory nuts. The morning reminded me of how much I enjoy living in an area of the […]

Time to Bring Out Our Redneck Leaf Catcher

Ichiban Japanese Steak & Seafood Restaurant
October 27 What fun we had having lunch with these three: Deb, Roy, and Jordan. This was to celebrate Roy and Jordan’s 2019 birthdays. We had a fun and flamboyant chef. He made lots of noise when displaying his utensils. The lady on the right is the one who took the picture of the five […]
Supper with Our Children
Friday evening, October 25 The historic building on West Market Street in Marietta has gone through a number of reincarnations in the past 200 years. Built in 1792, the log structure was first a home, and then a tea shop, French restaurant, sports bar and tavern. Now, it’s Nick’s Bistro. We like to go to new […]
Search for Camel Milk
Friday, October 25 It was fun having Mark and Diane visit from Maine for several days last week. When they noticed our Amish tour (on my blog) the other week and saw the camels that are milked, Mark mentioned an interest in tasting camel milk. I was up for that, because I like taking advantage […]
Morning Has Broken
Wednesday, October 23 You might think I would be used to seeing sunrises each fall when the sun has moved to a position that means we can watch it from our living room window. However, I still watch them with awe and feel like I should be singing, “Morning Has Broken.” Morning has broken, like […]

After getting the chapel set up for visitors we enjoyed coffee and shared ministry information with those who stopped in after the early […]
