I'm Thankful for.........


cabbage

my
garden!



I have always loved to plant vegtables & flowers.
This year we are trying a fall garden.
We have.....cabbage, broccoli, tomatoes, cilantro
onions and Gary's Blackberries.

It's fun to take the boys every other day to see the growth of our winter garden.  Now lets hope it produces.

Cilantro, my most favorite

Day 24.....

I'm thankful for......

my morning walks (sometimes runs)

in the woods near my home.

It's peaceful and still

Often I see deer grazing nearby.

We have a membership at the nearby gym but there is just something refreshing when your exercise takes place in the beautiful outdoors.

I'm Thankful for........

Conversion Stories

Gary and I attended our Stake conference last
night and there was a sister that shared her conversion story.
She was a member of the RLDS church for a long time and always felt like there was something missing in her life.

It was touching and uplifting.

I love that feeling!
