Kittens Anyone?

Since we live in the country, people tend to dump their unwanted animals on us. What's the deal? I keep telling my husband there's got to be a sign out here that says "Please Dump All Unwanted Animals Here! " I've got to find that sign! (Mission: Seek and destroy!)

So we've slowly been getting all of our cats "fixed". I only had one female and one male left to go and guess what? Yep!
















So now they're 7 weeks old and it's time to find good homes for my little babies. Ad goes in the newspaper this weekend. It's always hard to let them go, but we can't keep them all! (Although the calico stays :)

Beautiful

I love sitting on our front porch watching the sunsets. My daughter Bethany captured these a few days ago.

The heavens declare the glory of God; And the firmament shows His handiwork. Day unto day utters speech, And night unto night reveals knowledge. There is no speech nor language Where their voice is not heard. Psalm 19:1-3

Rainy Day

The last day of summer went out with a bang. (Literally) We had a pretty big storm blow through this afternoon - about 4 inches of rain with wind around 50 mph, and lots of lightning.

The little creek in our backyard is normally 3 feet deep, 4 feet wide, and dry most of the time. Today it grew to about 30 feet wide!

So does it make you an official blogger if you do things like go outside during a thunderstorm to take pictures of the rain to post?

Oh yeah, I'm there :)

My First Post

Well, here I sit, not really knowing what direction I'm going with this blog. I've actually been putting it off for a while hoping that something exciting would happen; but alas, nothing has. For now I'll just record daily happenings in our family's lives.

I'm a stay at home mom, happily married to my dear hubby Mike for over 18 years. We have 4 kids (so far!) that we homeschool. We love the Lord and seek to follow Him every day. We attend a wonderful little Baptist church where we enjoy the fellowship of Christian brothers and sisters.

Today we're preparing for a joint-garage sale with my mom. With fall coming, it's time to declutter the house! It amazes me how much stuff one can collect and hold on to thinking "I may need this someday". That someday seldom comes, so now it's time to say "Good-bye stuff, hello clean house!" At least partially decluttered house :)

Sorry for this wonderfully boring post. Hopefully I'll get better as I go!
