Breakfast?

As I was walking past the front door this morning, I could not help but noticed my breakfast guests.

"What are you looking at?"

After a couple of rattles, they were back to their task of finding worms or whatever they enjoy on my salad bar.

I am still amazed to see these Sand Hill Cranes wander the neighborhood like they are someones pets. It has been fun to see the little ones all grown up.

Have a great weekend!

Outdoor Wednesday

Last year we took a trip to North Carolina. We enjoyed some of the sights from a very old city - New Bern.

Founded in 1710 at the confluence of the Trent and Neuse rivers, New Bern was settled by Swiss and German adventurers led by Baron Christopher de Graffenried from Bern, Switzerland. New Bern is the second oldest town in the state.

It is also the birthplace of Pepsi-Cola!

Words to Live By

Who I Am in Christ

I am a new creation
Of infinite worth.

I am deeply loved.
I am completely forgiven by Him.
I am fully pleasing to Him.
I am totally accepted through Him.
I am absolutely complete in Him.
I was chosen for fellowship with Him.
Before time began
God purposed my life.
He made me special.
He made me unique.
He made me beautiful in His Sight.

Outdoor Wednesday

Driving home from the Mall one evening, the sky was ablaze. Such a beautiful sight.

A touch of fall

Today the shadows are playing. They are playing hide and seek and saying the days are getting shorter.

The smells and scents of the season.

Even the night air has a refreshing incense.

"The leaves fall, the wind blows, and the farm country slowly changes from the summer cottons into its winter wools."
- Henry Beston, Northern Farm

Happy Fall ya'll!

Words to Live By

They who wait for the LORD shall renew their strength; they shall mount up with wings like eagles; they shall run and not be weary; they shall walk and not faint.

Snug as a bug......

Before my little accident, I was taking you through our new house and showing how we are making it our own.

This was the living room the first time we saw the house.

We have changed the wall color, added a mantel to the fireplace, and tried several different rugs to see what would bring this room together.

The first rug we tried.
Although a beautiful rug, we felt the color seemed to blend in too much.

When I saw this rug at Home Goods with black in the center, I thought it would make the color in the furniture pop.

What do you think??
