Wisdom, and plain old common sense, have won out. The next ten days are going to be crazy-busy filled with good things, needful things and, I’m hoping, some fun things, too.

Pretty. Ya, I know. Flowers. Pretty. Cliche. But here’s the deal. These Thousand Bells were completely destroyed by a hard freeze two years ago. There were a few shoots and a couple of flowers last year, but I planned on dumping the whole thing and replanting it this year. Our [...] God bless you as you look well to the ways of your household!

There are a lot of good reasons for planning breakfast and lunch, as well as dinner. I like knowing what we’re having for breakfast, and so do my kids. We’re not great early in the morning, so the less there is to think about, [...] God bless you as you look well to the ways of your household!

June 21st, 2011 | Tags: the good life | Category: Uncategorized | 10 comments I’m frequently overwhelmed with the complexity, beauty and grandeur of what God has created.
Calling out, “Hey, guys! You’ve got to see this!”, is how I got my family out of bed this morning. When I opened the blinds and windows, the entire sky was filled with floating wisps of spider web. [...] God bless you as you look well to the ways of your household!
June 20th, 2011 | Category: Uncategorized | 4 comments True confession. I didn’t type up a menu plan for my family last week! In writing up the Walk With Me post for the Menu Planning Series, the time for typing up our own menu in Print Shop never materialized. I’m happy to report that this week’s menu plan was printed and posted on [...] God bless you as you look well to the ways of your household!
June 18th, 2011 | Tags: menu planning | Category: Uncategorized | 4 comments I think Friday gets too much credit, and Monday gets a bad rap. Personally, after a week like this one, I’m looking forward to the brand new, fresh start that will come on Monday, after spending Sunday in worship and fellowship.
I’ve a couple of pieces of blog housekeeping to share with [...] God bless you as you look well to the ways of your household!

My own plans for the last couple of weeks have been held with a very loose grip. You are remembering to hold your plans [...] God bless you as you look well to the ways of your household!
June 15th, 2011 | Tags: critters, hold your plans loosely | Category: Uncategorized | 10 comments Copper planned a full day of errands today. The weather was glorious, and everything was accomplished well before dinner time. Yeah for us!
The day started with a hay run. Copper headed to the hay broker while the boys finished up their morning chores.
When he got back, the [...] God bless you as you look well to the ways of your household!
