right along with math and the other schooling.

new teacher and the change has been awesome.

From the kitchen...

sounds terrible I know but there is a reason.

Around the house...

farm animals have been feed, kitchen work done, some school has

begun. Time to wrap up the computer and move on in school and the

laundry which is a consent daily event.

For today April 6, 2010

Outside my window...

The air is crisp the sun is shining. Sun just reached the

tops of the trees as it raises this morning.

I am thinking...

about the scare we all received last night

on our bike ride.

I am thankful..

God's protection and my children's very quick response.

I am wearing..

Our Lord's forgiveness.

I am remembering..

the Fruits of the Spirit

How important they are daily in our lives.

I am creating...

another scarf, I have 3 I need to make.

I am still working on the lap quilt.

I am going...

to get the children and myself moving very shortly.

I am hoping and praying...

for all the young mom's dealing with cancer.

Some are just beginning the journey.

From the learning rooms...

we are chipping away at the normal books.

Marissa just finished up her blue LLATL book and has moved into

the red LLATL. She says "I am a big girl now".

Biggest lesson for my children this year is learning God's lessons.

He has a plan and he will take care of you.

I am hearing...

it is quite, a fans hum, my husband sleeping and 

Pipper ( our Quaker parrot) he is ringing his bell.

He wants someone to come say hello to him.

From the kitchen...

I have no plans

it is grocery shopping time and right now

so tonight and tomorrow will be what is in the freezer

or pantry. Hopefully by Thursday we can go do the shopping.

Around the house...

dishes need to be done, family animals feed and

laundry maintained. Other then that we will be doing school this morning.

One of my favorite things...

our bike rides every evening, we are doing it as a family.

A few plans for the rest of the week....

Children's choir today with a meeting before hand.

Orchestra on Wednesday hopefully grocery shopping Thursday.

Here is a picture thought...

took this picture on Sunday. I just love how it reminds my of Jesus.

Thank you Peggy for the time to reflect each week on our life.

Also for reminding simple is worth so much more then anything else.

Peace- Jennifer Knapp

Lord has his wonderful timing last week to use this song to speak to me.
 I needed him close to me as I learned of another friend with cancer.
May it now speak to you also,

Pictures of our Tradition

Begin 14 yrs ago every Easter we have a cook out and egg hunt. As the children grow older things are changing, scavenger hunts in place of eggs and more games for the children to enjoy.

The one thing that will never change is wanting to enjoy the day with family.

A tradition was born and the children share how much it means to them.

Nathan's version of a sack race.

Anyone ready for sand cake for dessert?

Collin just relaxing and enjoying the day.

Collin with his best friend, his Papa.

Jon and dad preparing for fishing.

Aunt Mary enjoying the family.

Mimi having a afternoon full of grandchildren.

My man!

Friendly Pelican joining us in fishing.

At one time we say 3 Pelicans.

Diving for a fish, the splash is huge and loud.

Picture speaks to me of a reminder that is Resurrection Sunday!

(this will the picture on my daybook)

as the sun begins to settle

We saw a 8' alligator in the lake. No swimming for us.....

The day is good we had each other......

Thank you stopping by and being a part of our day.
