a few sweet pictuers

 Our girls having fun on the trampoline! They can spend hours out there. Most of the time it is mounded with blankets too.
 Here is our family, all eight of us!! This was taken about a month ago.
What a sweet picture we all make!!  :)

Hope you enjoy. 
In Him,

Fall blessings

Fall time it is once again!!
 Yep, my favorite season is here, and in high gear!   And all the many blessings it brings.
  Gardens are nearly all harvested.  Lots of vegetables  are in jars, and in the freezer.
 And carrots, beets, rutabagas, potatoes, spaghetti squash, onions, and pumpkins  are filling our cold room.
   Nights and mornings are frosty now, but afternoons are warmer and sunny, so the kids still have lots of fun out playing. They spend lots of time on our two trampolines, but now their latest thing is all the pretty leaves falling form the trees, which they rake in to piles and then jump into them,  or hide each other under the leaves.
    Hoping the really cold weather holds off a bit yet and long with the snow, so we can enjoy our fall time longer. 
   Schooling is in full force with 4 students going. They are grades 8, 5, 3, and 1. With our 3 and 2 years old keeping them selves super busy in the mean time!! :)


Summer here was short, fast and sweet. Could have been hotter longer, but I won't complain either.

I am just happy and content in season here are in in now, and enjoying all our blessings.

I have waited to end to share our greatest blessing though!! You may have  already guessed.
  Yes, the lord has blessed us once again with new life in the womb!!  So super excited, and praising God! This new one will be arriving May 4th, 2014 if our Lord willing.
   May I be the mom I need to be for my precious blessings.

I hope to post on my blog more often now that things have slowed down here a bit. So keeping coming back here for a visit.

  In Him,
Mae
