A morning of horse fun






Living her best life!! 


It is supposed to be 107 this afternoon! 
A morning of horse back riding was just what the day called for. 
We are so blessed to have Marilyn share her love with Hazel. 

And since we purchased the property next door to us, we are talking horse pasture and fencing. 
I may be more excited about the horse pasture than I am a new house. 
Hazel too!

Monday Night Thoughts


"Success is not final, failure is not fatal: it is the courage to continue that counts." - Winston  Churchill


May the God of endurance and encouragement grant you to live in such harmony with one another... 
Romans 15:5


Covid
Political Views
Mask Wearing or Not
Small business sufferings
Tired Parents
Lonely people

There is a lot that make this harmonious living that I think should be a goal, somewhat difficult. 
Not all aspects of my living are very harmonious right now. 
I do love that God grants us endurance and also encouragement.


I think it is interesting that on most days I have so much to celebrate and also so much that concerns me. 


Finding JOY in the JOURNEY

I took some fun pictures in the garden tonight at just about sunset and loved my garden helper; Hazel Jane! (I'll share the pictures soon)
Oren played in the dirt happily and so enjoyed his dump trucks. He filled one with water and he dunked his head in it to cool off! It is HOT! 
We picked cherry tomatoes, onions, zucchini, sunflowers, and fava beans...
We had sandwiches for dinner, too hot to cook! 
I am very thankful for air conditioning and very thankful for these kids who find so much entertainment in the creek, the garden, and in our yard. 

Champs!






Great games! And the guys took first!



Nampa has a little piece of my heart.
