Christmas thoughts...  When things get crazy and you wonder when are you going to breathe... Then it's time to bend the knee and Worship the King.  This is what Christmas is all about.  A time to worship and bring every burden to the throne.  This is what is pulling me through this hectic time.  Taking a breather before the throne.  The best relaxer! 

My hubby did this last Sat.  Tis' quite lovely to look at the fruits of my labors... This little room is under the stairs.  It holds everything from A-Z. And then the eggs.  Same chicken at work - different day.  That big one is huge.  Do they sell jumbo eggs?  I haven't opened it yet but there might be the beginnings of an ostrich in there.

This is for you mom...  You are on that trip and your trees are beautiful!  Please come home soon. The view out our side yard... And finally my kitchen finished... minus the door pulls.  Bruce got the copper bar glued down to my liking and it is my dream come true. Come for coffee soon.

Time for beautiful fires... Crab apples, and fall walks... One lone little pumkin... Putting the garden to bed... Finishing the barn... A few thoughts too...  I haven't turned into a pile of nothingness in all my busy ness... I still fall asleep at night with words and story plots roaming around in my head.  I've been reading too on the side.  Always must have a good read.  I've been reading three at the same time recently.  A Garden To Keep- by Jamie Langston Turner.  I won't even begin to say how that book makes me think.  Believe me, it's good.    My mom in law sent  Heaven Is For Real  a book written by a dad about his kid.  Very thought provoking about heaven.  Not the usual kind of book I like but good for me to think outside my box.  The thought that heaven isn't exactly how I think it is just because its been my thought.  God can do whatever He wants however He wants. And that H...

School has started... Don't laugh at Laife.  This was the best picture I could get of the little scholars.    Last week we did the school thing.  Finished most the corn from the garden and attained these lovely chickens.  Anyone who knows me; knows that I have exercised a lot of bravery in going to that little chicken farm walking among many chickens to pick out three almost grown chickens and three little ones.  Not only did I brave all those birds I now have the three babies in my office in my house.  They ARE in a little cage so I guess that isn't exactly brave. The most well cared chicks on the planet.  Did I mention, my office stinks! Cute, little chicken coop... Oh dear sweet chicken with the beautiful chicken eye.  I think he wants to eat me.     Disclaimer:  Laife took the chicken photos.  Just to be absolutely clear. The end...

I'm going to try this group of pictures one more time.  After that I give up... I think they should be self explanatory.
