Sunday Visitors; Amazing Maisie

It was a chillier day today but the sun was bright so we decided to make a fire in the firepit and enjoy God’s creation anyway! I don’t recall if I’ve shared Maisie’s story, or how God made her perfect for me and got us together, what she was like, etc. but she was a …

Autumn Colors/Out And About

Today we took a little trip for Pete’s appointment at one of the VA Clinics here in Michigan. I took some photos of the colors along the way. Most were taken through the windshield but when we were stopped – or could safely stop – I took them through an open window or from outside …

A Doesn’t-Get-Any-Better-Than-This Saturday!

We started the day with a lovely fire, and decided Saturday would be a ADF (all day fire) day. In fact, we decided that, from now on, EVERY Saturday day is going to be an ADF day! Here are some photos of the first part of the day. They’re pretty self-explanatory… During our time outside …
