True Treasures

Posted in Reviews

It’s hard to believe that TEACH magazine (now called Eternal Encouragement) has been mentoring women – helping them be a better homemaker, homeschool mom, parent, wife… – for 10 years.  Because not all women have someone in their lives to help guide them, in a Biblical manner, through the trials and triumphs of parenting and marriage, TEACH has been a valuable resource for many, many women over the years – myself included. I’ve been reading TEACH magazine for years.  Usually, I like hold on to these magazines, but frequent moves often lend themselves to the need for purging magazines.  The…

Sculptures at the Airport

Posted in Family, and Photography

Project 365 – #022 Grandma and Grandpa’s flight was delayed almost an hour, so we had fun exploring the airport.  I had been at this airport only once before back when I was a teenager.  Honestly, I don’t remember it, so it was new for all of us.  We found these fun sculptures and had to take a few pictures. We were pleased to find several different types of these sculptures with different patterns and colors.  I think they are abstract saguaro cactus.  At least, that’s what we saw when we studied them.  What do you think?

3 in 30: January Week 3 Check-In

Posted in Christian Life, Fitness, and Homemaking

But Jesus beheld them, and said unto them, With men this is impossible; but with God all things are possible. ~Matthew 19:26 We’re in…

Sewing Room Organization and a Donut?

Posted in Homemaking, and Photography

Project 365 – #020 When I saw the Mommytography Shape Challenge for January, I decided that I didn’t want to search for something that fit the challenge.  Instead, I wanted to allow something to jump out at me, so I set aside the challenge and carried on with life.  It was always in the back of my mind.  I started to think that I wouldn’t have anything to show this month… Enter in the cleaning of my sewing room – also known as the guest room.  You see, we have company coming on Friday.  We’ll be spending the week with…
