A Bundle of Myrrh

“For the grace of God that brings salvation has appeared to all men, teaching us that, denying ungodliness and worldly lusts, we should live soberly, righteously, and godly in the present age”

“looking for the blessed hope and glorious appearing of our great God and Savior Jesus Christ, who gave Himself for us, that He might redeem us from every lawless deed and purify for Himself His own special people, zealous for good works.” Titus 2:11-14

And the Spirit and the bride say, “Come!” And let him who hears say, “Come!” Rev 22:17

A Thanksgiving treat for you all!

I knew we had wild turkeys in town, but hadn’t seen one this year until the other day! This one was hanging out next door at the church.

He eventually made his way over to our backyard! He was on our porch! Eeek! Or should I say Gobble Gobble Y’all!

This year I dressed the babies up as some of our favorite story characters. Lily is Heidi and I’d originally planned on making all of them characters from that story; Heidi, Klara, Peter and a baby goat. Clara however, would not be “Klara” for Halloween. So I went a different direction, Clara and Gerhardt were Hansel and Gretel, Esther was still a baby goat, she’s so much more compliant than the others…

Esther’s supposed to be a Nubian goat, they have floppy ears like this but I realized she looked more like a puppy dog. Oh well, she was still cute!

Definitely something I would make up, but really, today is National Ice Cream Day. Thank you Ronald Reagan! So, get your celebration on with a big bowl or a 5 scooper!
