Time keeps rolling along here at Twin Oaks!
I am sure it is the same for you all.
I have been in the habit for years now to count our blessings – daily!
It just gives you the right heart and attitude – one of contentment!
Gratitude is an attitude!!!
I’ve been thinking about this habit the last few days, even though it comes naturally to me now after years of practice.
So – let’s walk through some photos from February so you can praise the Lord with us for all the blessings He allows!!
First up – an abundance of good food – such a constant blessing here.
I also have an abundance of food photos, ha, ha!
Well, now I’m hungry!!
We are constantly blessed with good fellowship with good friends!!
I don’t usually take photos when friends are here or when we are with friends, but this friend is moving away in two weeks and we wanted a photo together.
Going to miss this girl and her crew!!
We are blessed with friends that know how to make great food too!!
We are blessed with a daughter who knows how to make good food as well, and a son-in-law who makes amazing lattes whenever you ask for them!!
We sure were counting our blessings when Lane saw that our huge chest freezer light was not on.
We realized quickly it was not working anymore!
Praise the Lord the food was still frozen.
Amongst other things, there are about 50 whole organic chickens in that freezer!
Thankful Grant had a freezer we could plug in and then we took the rest of the food down to Addie’s work for a few days till we got the new freezers to replace the old one.
I started Kombucha in February!
Thankful for Kayla’s encouragement in so many things like this!
It goes without saying what a blessing our oldest daughter is!!
Speaking of daughters – Eliza is growing and changing by the second.
She has the SWEETEST heart, which is such a blessing to us!
From loving on her nieces and nephews…
To sitting completely still under the bird feeder for over an hour just to watch the birds eat…
To being super brave at appointments for her teeth…
To sitting in her little Asian squat that just makes my heart sing!!
From going with her mama and big sisters to a women’s meeting at church…
To loving paper and pencils and reading so much…
To taking naps when you know you need them!
Her smile brightens any room!
She is a JOY to spend time with!
And she is growing like a weed!
Eliza Claire, you are such a sweet, sweet blessing!
We are constantly praising the Lord that He made these two siblings.
They are always better together!
Such a blessing!
Thankful for this trio of ours as well!!
Tate is a bright light that we still do not know how we ever lived without!
I always count our blessings when I see the big kiddos pouring into the younger ones.
They work at keeping their relationships strong and that is such a good thing!
The littles love read aloud time!
Thankful for a hubby who knows how to do pretty much anything – from filing taxes to rigging up a toilet until he could pick up new parts for it!
Glad we have cuddly puppies too!
They are SO loved!
Well, that was a pile of photos!
Such sweet, sweet memories!
February was wonderful!
Looking forward to counting many more blessings in the months to come!
