Only and Already

How has it only and already been 6 years as Andy’s wife? I don’t know, but today marks our anniversary. I’m thankful for the adventures we’ve had and the ones to come. I’m thankful that he had the courage to ask me to be his bride. I’m thankful that we made a commitment to each other-til death do us part and that while marriage has been one of the most sanctifying things in our lives, it’s also been incredibly rewarding. I’m thankful that I get to be married to my best friend and that because of our marriage we get to be best friends. I love my husband. I love being his wife. It’s not always fun, adventurous and romantic, but its always good to grow in love and grace together. Til death do us part.

    The grapes have ripened and over ripened. The kids made all sorts of concoctions and I got to be the taste tester. The summer is still going strong. The goldenrod is blooming.

    Over the hump

    Did I already share that we’re expecting a new little honey bee to join our crew? Well, we are thrilled and finally over the first trimester woes of nausea, exhaustion, queasy goodness that always accompanies my baby’s earliest weeks of development. I’m thankful for each season and this last one has been a doozy. We…

    If dumpster diving is wrong then we don’t need to know. Andy came home last week with a case of canning jars that were kindly left beside the dumpster (we take our trash to the dumpster in the sticks) and today he found this gem of a giant jar. I’ve done my fair share of…

  • Local Honey Love

    Keeping bees was always a dream. Marrying a beekeeper was a special bonus. These last couple of years, our honey hobby has created quite a special little following. We’d usually have honey available throughout the year to sell, but lately it’s been selling out within weeks after harvest. I can’t say that I’m not surprised…
