2 week growth



Yes, we are still growing. This past week we added 6 more chicks and 3 ducks to the flock. The seedlings are growing so much. We can't wait to put them in the ground. We did have a first this week. Jenna has wanted to learn to mow forever but she never weight enough. Well this week she got to drive the mower. She had the biggest grin on her face. I hope that wasn't the highlight of her spring break. The girls spent their week off with Granny Bear and Ho. They messed around and went to Tennessee and South Carolina. I am so blessed to have my girls grow up around their grandparents like I did. I sure miss them days sitting in the pool swimming for Popsicles. I guess you can say you grow and grow but only if your foundation (your family) is rich, in love!

Muddy Day






What do you do after it rains for a few day a few inches? Well what else go play in the mud. We jumped in to the jeep and headed to Brown Mountain. We knew it was going to be fun after the seeing the bridge to get in was over flowing with water. We did the mud hole a few times for the girls and went up the trail. Stopped at the top to have a picnic lunch and then went back down. Afterwards we went over to the Wise Men trail to see Table Rock and then ended at Lineville Falls. We walked to see the falls. It is amazing to see the amount of water flowing after all the rain. It was great to just get away for a little up in the woods. To have the chance to spent some needed time with the family and see God's work in the beautiful blue sky. We crossed the river, went thru the woods, and climbed some rocks to fave this day of fun!
