I'm Back!!!!

It has been a long time since I have posted and I'm sorry. I had a booth at a homeschool convention in OKC about 2 weeks ago, and was busy sewing for that. Then my aunt, uncle, grandmother, and cousins came and stayed for a few days. So we have been really busy.

The convention went really well. I sold my aprons, dolls, add-on flowers, some headbands, and camera straps. My brothers sold some guitar stands, guitar picks, and some leather field journals. I have pictures, but my computer deleted all of the pictures, and now it won't let me upload pictures. We are working on it though.

We had a lot of fun with my family up here. My grandmother got to stay 2 weeks more than everyone else, so we are enjoying her company.

I have lots of pictures of some projects that I've been working on, but... maybe next time.:)

We started our garden! We planted lettuce, potatoes, onions, bell peppers, tomatoes, jalapenos pepper, and some herbs. So far, everything has done great! I will post pictures when I can.

We have been outside a lot lately. The weather has been really nice. I am about to go outside and play with my brothers, so I need to go.

I'll be back.:)

A Spring Like Day

With the birds chirping, wind blowing, and with the temperature, today and yesterday felt like a spring day.

It has been beautiful.

Yesterday started out over cast, but then cleared up in the afternoon.

I went outside yesterday before the sun set and took a lot of pictures.

Here are a few of my favorites.
I don't know if you can tell, but I love to take pictures using the sun. :)




More soon. :)

Another Blizzard!!!!

It started to snow early Tuesday morning.

It snowed all day long!

I have made snow ice cream a few times.

Here is a picture of the first batch.

It is super easy to make. I will post the recipe at the end of this post.

The sun was beautiful that night.
Some of the drifts are really deep. One of them was as tall of me! I don't have a picture of that drift yet, but I will try to get one.

We put our wood on the porch to try to keep it dry, but it still got snow on it.

The wind was really strong.

Maggie is really liking the snow. She loves to jump through it.

I will post picture of everyone sledding soon.:)

Here is the recipe for snow ice cream.

~6 quarts fresh clean snow ( don't pack into measuring cups. Snow should be fluffy)

~1 1/2 to 2 cups sugar

~1 quart whipping cream

~1 teaspoon vanilla

Mix all ingredients (except for snow) in a small bowl. Pour over snow and mix.

Enjoy!!!

I will post more pictures soon.

My Dad and my brothers made a carpet ball table for Luke's birthday gift.

Here is a picture of Luke playing his new game.He sure was excited! :)
Here are a couple of pictures of his cake.
Didn't my Mom do a great job!!!


It turned out really cute.

I will post pictures of the carpet ball later.

8 years ago...

... my little brother, Luke, was born. I am very thankful for him and for who the Lord has made him.

He is courageous, strong, brave, kind, loving, manly, respectful, and most of all, he loves the Lord.

Luke is one of a kind.

And I love him!
:)


Luke, I hope that you have a very Happy Birthday!!!
:)

Rejoice in the Lord alway: and again I say, Rejoice.
