Look around, really look around and you will find joy... joy in the everyday... joy in the ordinary things.
One evening after dinner Megan announced that she would take care of clean up. She shooded us away and took over. We went and sat on the porch. We could hear her moving around and at one point I told Chuck I thought she was sweeping. I snuck in an captured her mopping. She did a great job. For disclosure she helps with clean up, but hasn't taken on the task alone again.

Helping Daddy to keep the van in working order.

We traveled 80 miles south to attend a funeral for my aunt. Seeing Amish in this community is common. When we turned into town we passed this man selling his produce.
I love country setting and small town feel of this place. I can imagine myself living here.
Friday evening it poured! After the hot and humid weather we've been having it was nice to sit on the back porch and watch it fall.
My girl has been creating. She made a popsicle house complete with a table and a bed with a pillow and blanket.
If you like down home food then this book is for you. I checked it out from the library. It contains recipes and tips from the Farmer's Wife magazine. The magazine was published from 1897 - 1939. Not only am I enjoying the receipes but also the tips for the times. Fun book!
The new frig. If you are wondering if the freezer portion is small, yes, yes it is. I was surprised by how small the freezers were on the new models. The ones with larger freezers were too wide for our space. Thank goodness we have an upright in the garage!
