We got much needed rain!

Good Monday morning! We finally got a much needed rain saturday and sunday. My garden and flowers are Im sure very happy for the lovely drink of water. Had a wonderful weekend, made or tried to make plum butter its more like plum sauce. But a least it taste good. It was the first time I canned anything and with the help of my farmgirl friends over at Mjs Im sure the next batch will turn out fine. You have to start somewhere right? I am going to try and can some squash this week. Will let you know how that turns out. Please be praying for my friend Karen E. as she lost her cousin yesterday(unexspected),this is always a tough time for any family.
Hope you all have a great week, Blessing Karen

Too Hot!

Today has been a hot one here in Ga. The weather forecast keeps calling for rain but I haven't seen any yet. My flowers and garden would sure like to see it too. We have 4 new baby chicks and 1 on the way, and several hens sitting. Will try to get some pics posted soon of the little ones. I've put up some squash and plan to make some plum-butter out of MaryJane's book. For all the farmgirls at MJs who helped me decide what type of craft to start on. I have done 3 dishclothes and have now started on a baby blanket. Will post pics of these as well soon. Hope you all have a great weekend. Love you all! Karen Ps. Ignore dates on chic and discloth pics they were taken 6/27/08.

90th Birthday

Tomorrow is my grandmothers B-day. She will be 90 yrs old. She is still just as beautiful as she has ever been. Over the past 37 yrs of my life she has taught me many things, first and foremost is to love the Lord and put him first before all things. Pray for others and always lend a helping hand . She has always put her family before herself and never complained about anything, even though me and my cousins gave her plenty to fuss about(like mercuricome spilt on the carpet). I never remember her raising her voice to us, she always has the sweetest spirit. She has been a friend to many and a wife, mother, grandmother and great grandmother. All that know her have been blessed in some way from her kind words, friendly notes or a phone call. Please pray with me that she will have a blessed birthday that she so deserves. The Lord has truly blessed me with a wonderful grandmother. Happy Birthday Grandmama. I Love you!!!!!

New at this !

Well while I'm trying to construct this page. Please be patient as I am a little computer illiterate. But hopefully soon I ll get the hang of this and have more things up and running. Thanks

Startin something new

Good morning all, God has blessed us with a wonderful rain that we so desperately need. I thought I would try going high tech like the rest of the farm girls over at Maryjane's. I might figure all these things out one of these days. Keep checking back in as I try adding more each day.
