Summer has finally arrived here in our beautiful valley. The days have been filled with hanging out at home around our humble above ground pool and working on the house. My son helped build a deck on one side of the pool and is ready to tackle some other projects around the home. Our girl has been baking all kinds of goodies this month, she has found a true love for making cookies. Although she is feeling deprived of the written word, so far she has only read 8 or 9 books. I do believe she is the modern female version of Henry Bemis.
Since the temperature began rising we have been eating later in the evening, it isn't uncommon for dinner to start at 8 or 8:30 and consist of cold or room temp dishes. Every few days we start up the wood fire grill and cook several items to use through out the week. Tonight I made a simple salad that everyone really liked using some grilled shrimp...

March Madness
Spring is fighting to make an entrance around here. Yesterday was a beautiful day filled with sunshine and warmth; today hail storms and cold breezes. The reminder of how little control we have was well timed today.
My sister is visiting, my son is preparing for a speech meet with another Classical Christian School and my daughter is trying to learn how to balance life as a growing teenager. Renovations continue and work is good. The dog is comic relief always!

Really, I Had a Blog???
How funny, 2 1/2 years ago my sister talked me into starting a blog for the very reasons I had stated and then our mother got sick and my work increased and I totally forgot I had started a blog. Really, I didn't even know-I was that forgetful. I was finally leaving a comment on one of my favorite blogs - Orangette. When I discovered I had an account! Not sure if I will continue blogging but got to say this was a funny thing to "find". Blessings on your day.

Start
This is my very first attempt at blogging. I have always been an avid believer in journaling, at the very least I have always written down my prayers and how the Lord has answered them. I am still not sure how this will fit into life but my sister is great at this. Since all of my siblings will soon be in different parts of the country we figured this would be a great way to keep in touch.
