John Deere Green




Someone got a new toy. He was like a kid at Christmas opening his favorite gift. I had to get a few shots!

Be Still

J has been especially busy at work the last few weeks and I have a lot of uncertainties going on at my workplace with some job shuffling and reassignments/etc. It is easy to get caught up in "life" and to start to worry about what is next. I'm comforted in Christ and by the song "Be Still." I love the lyrics:

Be still and know that He is God
Be still and know that He is holy
Be still oh restless soul of mine
Bow before the Prince of Peace
Let the noise and clamor cease

Be still and know that He is God
Be still and know that He is faithful
Consider all that He has done
Stand in awe and be amazed
And know that He will never change
Be still

Be still and know that He is God
Be still and know that He is God
Be still and know that He is God
Be still
Be speechless

Be still and know that He is God
Be still and know He is our father
Come rest your head upon His breast
Listen to the rhythm of
His unfailing heart of love
Beating for His little ones
Calling each of us to come
Be still
Be still

Grandma A turns 93 on January 1!



Wintery Walk

On Christmas Eve day, it was beautiful outside with a hard frost covering the trees. We took a walk after church back in my parents timber and these are a few photos I took along the way.


Dad Traditions

Our dads are special guys to us and at the holidays, we always look
forward to traditions that our dads do. D's dad always roasts hot dogs
over the fire on Christmas Eve. Mom always
suggests something nicer like ham, but us
kids and grandkids always want to keep
the hot dog tradition!
J's dad always reads the Christmas story
before opening gifts.
We love you, Dads!
