ABIDE IN ME.

Jesus always wants us to abide in Him. Sometimes we just go ahead without thinking and try to do things by ourselves. Does it usually work out? When we constantly talk things over with Jesus and invite Him to be involved in everything in our lives, I believe things will go much better. And this is not something that I am good at... I am saying this to me, as much as you. A challenge. To always have Jesus with us. All day long. To talk to Him about everything. Let's invite Jesus to totally fill us, and serve Him in everything we do!

this is life.

 So let's just say it this way...life has been pretty crazy lately, but we've also made great memories, and had good times working together. Enjoy these snippets of my life...

and off came the blue siding...next week the new will begin to appear. 

I just told someone that our house looks a little haunted :/ I am very excited for the new siding! 

We got almost all new windows this past week, and like you saw earlier, our siding got ripped off,  so we did some different things so we were out of the house, and didn't get in the way of those working. The girls had a few school days to finish up last week, and one day we went to "The Fish Place." We got to pet sting rays! 

Another day we went and visited Great Grandma Weaver at Garden Spot. She left us swim in the Garden Spot pool 🌝

Before we went swimming, we visited with Grandma and had lunch in her apartment. (Sorry about the blurry picture 😐)

These chilly evenings call for warm campfire!

....and a goat-on-top-of-a-cow picture to end 😃 

find joy || weekly encouragement

Sometimes its hard to find joy in the ordinary. BUT- there is so much to find joy in IF you look around and think about it. so today CHOOSE to be JOYFUL + HAPPY, cause Jesus has blessed us with so much!

Life Lately //

We were really enjoying the beautiful weather we had for awhile...Addy + Aubree were having a great time drawing chalk one day 😃

 cousin time = dressing up + having a delightful little snack of peanuts + water! 

 Some more time was spent in the tractor making one very, very, very dusty 😆

And a blurry selfie with dear cousin Caleb!! 

And now the past days have been rainy and cold....we are supposed to have 80's later this week and weekend and I can't wait 😂
I have one more day of school left and it still hasn't quite sunk in that I am done with 9th grade and summer break is about to begin!! I think with the storm, and just a busy winter school went super fast. Anyway, enjoy the rainy day, the sun will shine soon! 🌻🌞

Springtime & Life on our Farm

We are building a heifer barn over our pit, so last week they started working on pouring the concrete walls, which meant the concrete truck needed to come a few times 😃

On Saturday I spent some time in the tractor discing...that was a learning experience 😬😉

We've also been doing things like mowing, weed eating, and all the springy stuff...Jesus has been blessing us with some amazing weather as well...today was chilly again, but I think we are back to the warm weather {which I love} tomorrow!
Stay tuned for a "life lately" post shortly! Enjoy your evening 😃
