Mushrooms as big as your head....

... and just in case you don't know how big his head is, here is a more reliable non-standard unit of measure.

A little then and now and a Happy Mother's Day!

This was taken about a year ago.

This was taken yesterday.

One year ago


Yesterday.

M's dress and sweater are the same ones from last year. You can see how the dress the went from mid-calf last year to mid-knee this year. The arms of the sweater no longer cover her hands either. Yep, our girl is growing!

Here is one from today.
Happy Mother's Day!

Four score and seven years ago.... or in our case last Sunday,

we attended a civil war re-enactment. This was a new experience to all of us and we really enjoyed it. It took place at a park with historical cabins. Our friend, Jim, is one of the participants. It was neat to see him in action. We were also able to visit with Jim's wife Julie too!

The battle is on. M wasn't scared, but did not care for the loud gun shots.
Gracie the horse in battle.

M and Baba in front of one of the old log cabins. A family of 8 lived together in this cabin.



M really liked visiting with Gracie.

Making friends

We really enjoyed visiting the camp, watching the battle and especially spending time with our friends, Jim and Julie. We hope to be able to attend another event later this summer!

My greatest blessings

I am so thankful to Jesus my savior, who not only took my sin upon himself, but also bestows me with blessings beyond my imagination.
To God be the glory, for great things he has done!
