Feathered and Furry Friends




I've rediscovered a new stress -reliever -- bird-watching -- since hanging a feeder off our deck - love it! Pippin joined me one morning so I snapped a pic of her too.

Rainy Day Barbeque




We had a great time in spite of the weather and found that we could comfortably welcome 35 people into our home -- church friends, ministry friends and family -- Dan and Tammy brought a tent to keep the grill dry, we ate and visited and sang some hymns, had a visit from a missionary friend from India. We had over 2 inches of rain in 24 hours, and so the churning "Missippi" creek in our backyard provided some live entertainment too! We thank the Lord for this house -- such a blessing to us and we hope to others also!

Resurrection Day 2011


It was a beautiful sound, and brought tears to my eyes.

Sunrise Service at Lexington Mission - it was the first time the steeple bell was rung and folks gathered to worship here in many years.Then we traveled down the road a bit to our church in Hunter for a wonderful time of worship and delicious breakfast! He is risen!!
