…I planted potatoes in the garden… 
…I rode Sully bareback around the property and got all hot and sweaty…
…I took cool shower for the first time in months…
…I ate a smoothie for lunch, and didn’t have to sit by the fireplace afterwards…
…I put on my ‘flowiest’ of skirts, and walked barefoot outside…
I know Spring isn’t officially until tomorrow, but this sure feels like the real thing!

It seems like a blast from the past, but this picture was taken only a little over two years ago!

Well, whaddaya know – two in one week! I must be on a roll.
Not really. 
But we did go on a small hiking trip with our friends, Jason and Melissa this Tuesday. We took advantage of the gorgeous weather, Melissa’s being home for a few days, and Walter’s wheels (it’s so wonderful having another licensed driver in the family!) to go hiking together! I love being outdoors, especially in the woods. To see where we went, check out the pictures!
I sure hope Spring is here to stay!

See? I’m even taller than Nate!

A verse that’s been on my heart lately…
For I am not ashamed of the gospel of Christ: for it is the power of God unto salvation to every one that believeth; to the Jew first, and also to the Greek.
~Romans 1:16~
Amen!

Dad went to a Bob Ross painting class a couple days ago, and look at what he came back with!
Isn’t it beautiful? None of us knew Dad could paint!

Wow Dad! What other talents do you have that we don’t know about?

Possible recipes…
Adding essential oils…
Testing the consistency…
Angie’s artistic touch to the scene…
Preparing the lavender scented batch…
The tubes and trays, ready to be poured into…
I don’t have an “after” picture, but our first attempt at making chapstick turned out pretty well! Many thanks to our teacher – we couldn’t have done it without you!
I just love chapstick! And now I have four new, homemade flavors to use at liberty. Oh joy!

…but for some reason, I like it. It’s a great candid shot.
Then again, maybe it’s because there’s a strange and creepy kid spying on us in the background.

For those of you that know me you would know that I really like to work with wood. But recently it has been way too cold to be working in the shed. So I made a temporary little work space in our attic, where I made this:
I hope that it warms up soon!

~A picture I snapped while on a walk with Nate last week. After a long period of cold temperatures in our area, it felt great to get out and get some exercise!
I just love living in the country!
