Sunday, January 13 This is what it looks like on our two-mile drive to and from church on a snowy Sunday morning. From the end of our driveway We pass this church on the way to ours. I posted the pictures of our church last week when I gave you a few notes from our […]
Saturday, January 12 Notice the date – this was last Saturday evening – not last night – even though the weather was similar. It’s always fun to capture snowflakes with the flash of my camera. Azalea bush It would have been a cold evening to sit on the patio chair. Our colander birdfeeder I enjoy […]
I like how the late morning lighting silhouetted the Amish horse and carriage on the way out their lane.
We are going to be great-grandparents again! This is how we learned the good news – at the Hershey Christmas Brunch at the end of December. This is how Nathaniel, Abby, and Anthony announced it to the “world of Facebook” yesterday. Our hearts are smiling for them.
Friday, January 18 Because life has been slowly returning to a new normal for Josiah, there wasn’t a lot to report in recent weeks, but there were a few major changes for him this week. We also hear from friends and readers – asking how he is doing. Josiah went to his orthopedic surgeon on […]
January 13 We had a pretty drive to church on Sunday morning. You can see a bit of our church building on the upper right. A few notes from our sermon by Dave Wenger How Many Ways Are There to God? Our minds are continually searching for answers to life, like, how and why am […]

We appreciate his goal – that we continue […]
This photo was taken a few days ago – Wednesday, January 9. I try not to take sunrises for granted, but know I do, because daytime always happens – even when it is cloudy and we cannot see the sun or a beautiful sky. Do you ever wonder how God did that? How He decided […]
I want to be like that – brave and strong. It is my goal to never give up – to never stop praying. It is my goal to never stop trusting in the power of God.
Pictures from Tuesday, January 8 and Wednesday, January 9 Winter can have some dreary, cold days – and we had several days like that this week. There was a coating of sleet everywhere. The trees looked bare and the sky was gray. Back to the ground and the sleet in our yard. There isn’t much […]
Monday, January 7 I’m not a big fan of the taste of venison – mule deer or whitetail – so do my best to camouflage the taste when I make it. 🙂 My favorite way of making a venison steak is to cube it, fry it with bit of onion and sweet pepper, then when […]
Sunday, January 6 I love seeing the sun streaking through clouds. This is what happened when I focused my camera on the dark cloud.
Isn’t it amazing that sunsets are never the same? Saturday, January 5 was a beautiful evening. On the way back to the house I noticed a squirrel’s nest near the top of one of our tall trees. (just left of center) I know why I didn’t notice it during summertime – because of the leaves […]
It is not too unusual to see wrens at our feeders, but I particularly enjoy when they come to the window feeder. I enjoy seeing their chubby, short body and distinctive beak. They are particularly fun – and noisy – to watch in summertime when they are building a nest.
