Encouragement of the Day

Our bountiful plum tree
















"Christian sacrifice isn’t ever 
giving to God 
what He wouldn’t have 
without us.


Christian sacrifice is 
receiving from God 
what we’d never have 
without Him."

Last minute Garden attempt



We are so behind in getting the garden going this year!  I think because of having a baby in March, I took the pressure off of myself and was okay with not doing a garden this year.  Then, I got the bee in my bonnet, and had to make something happen.

Our poor garden was truly abandoned after last season.  We did no post season care.  We had a big mess to clean up, but it was so good to get everybody out there ‘working hard!’


It took a few days to clean it up, and even longer to get everything planted.

Finally got boxes cleared out
