Project 365 – #246 Before D’s surgery, we purchased a bike trainer for him to be able to use for fitness after his surgery. He used it until he was able to ride outside. We won’t go into the fact that shortly after he started riding outside he took a nasty spill. Thankfully, it didn’t injure his back. His doctor cleared him to ride, and he needs to work to get back in shape. Riding is one of the things he uses as part of his fitness routine. We enjoy taking bike rides as a family, but the summer months…

Encouraging My Daughter
Posted in Christian Life, and Family
Project 365 – #245 When you wake up in the middle of night having that feeling that you need to pray, you listen. When you feel the Lord leading you to be an encouragement, you do it. These are the things that I’ve learned over the years, and I know that the Lord uses these moments in the middle of the night to get my attention. I also know that I need to follow whatever I am lead to do even if it’s in the middle of the night. Last night, my dog woke me up to go outside. After…
Coffee or Tea Anyone?

Project 365 – #244 Our neighbors have a Keurig which D thought was pretty nice, but he never thought it would be a good fit for him. Then, when my Dad and stepmom starting giving rave reviews for their Keurig, he started thinking about it, a little. His major hang up is that he drinks a good bit of coffee. He makes a large pot in the morning and takes most of it to work with him. He didn’t think the Keurig would fit with his normal routine. When we were on vacation, my Dad talked about how he actually…
Hopping Along

Project 365 – #241 Isn’t that guy just too cute? He (or maybe she?) was kind enough to hop out from the little cave to allow me to snap a few pictures before hopping back into the cooler shade that it afforded. Since the other animals were not so inclined to help out, this critter was the only one that is being featured. lol! Yesterday, I was once again reminded of how much I use the internet for research and preparation for our homeschool day. After lunch, I went to get on the internet to try to do some prep…
A Little Bit of Country…
Posted in Family, Military Life, and Photography
Project 365 – #237 While I grew up in the city, I’m definitely a country girl at heart. I love being outdoors (well, when it’s not super hot or super cold), and I dream of having a nice piece of land on which to homestead. I love exploring God’s creation and seeing His hands on everything around me. Hiking, camping, biking, fishing… Yep, I enjoy it. I’m grateful that even though I grew up in the city I had the opportunity to develop a love of nature thanks to various trips with my family and youth group. Munchkin dreams of…
