summer jobs?

As you may know, Georgia is the "Peach State"
and we live in the "peachiest" part of the state.
There's an orchard close by that sells their "culls"
for $10 for 1/2 bushel.
We're not sure why they are #3s...they looked perfect to us!

Anyway, this is how they ended up...

 (well, most of them...we ate a few).... ready for the freezer.

Used one quart Saturday, when all the family was here,

 to make homemade ice cream...delish!

Hubby's tomato plants have really been productive.

We've had all we can eat, have canned a few quarts,

and have given some away.

We have enough to can some more...when we can find the time!

We are grateful for the bounty...ours and the peach farm's.

Such a blessing from God that we will enjoy for months to come.

A while back I saw this "birds on a wire" wall hanging at 

Hobby Lobby. I kept looking at it...trying to decide if it was what

I wanted to hang over the leather loveseat in our living room.

When it was on sale for half price, I bought it.

I liked how it looked, but I thought it needed something.

So, I decided that I would use the "tricks of the trade"

I learned at the paint class I went to a while back.

With an old piece of baseboard, some paint, the computer,

some tracing paper, some brown wrapping paper, a paint pen,

and some modge podge....I made this plague to hang above it.

I like it better now!
I'm thankful for the truth of the statement, also.
I know my Heavenly Father watches over me...He promises
to never leave me. Scripture says He knows when a sparrow falls
from the sky. If He cares that much for them, how much more He
 must care for me! That's a comfort to me every day!

Thanks for dropping by...your visits mean so much to me!
When I look at the birds, it makes me think of all of you...
they are gathering to chat and share...
just like us! :-)
