Apple Pie

Posted in Baking, Cooking, Photography, tagged Baking, Cooking, Food, photography on January 22, 2015| 17 Comments »

Apples were on sale again…

I just had to make a pie.

The filling is just apples, cinnamon, nutmeg, and butter.

It turns into the most delicious sweet and tender filling.

The crust gave me a little trouble this time…

But since I wasn’t going for perfect….

I was ok with it.

The smell of apple pie baking in the oven. . .

You just can’t hardly wait for the pie to be done . . .

. . . So you can take it out and have a piece.

Enjoy the apples while they’re in season!

A Snow Blanket

I will probably share many more photos soon, but I just had to post a few…

We woke up to a snow blanket covering our part of the world.

How beautiful!

Can’t wait to run outside (with my many layers of clothing on) and take many pictures!!

Until then,
Stay warm.

I’m in Ohio, and it has been snowing on & off since yesterday…

I ran outside with my cell phone and took pictures of the beautiful setting…

I left my favorite one for last:

Enjoy the weather,
And have a wonderful weekend!

County Fair

Posted in Photography, Quilting, Travel, tagged fair, photography, Travel on November 12, 2014| 20 Comments »

I went to a cute little County Fair this past weekend.

My favorite part is always the animals…

I have to tell you, though, I was very disappointed to learn that the chickens and roosters were not scheduled to arrive for another 3 days! That is always my favorite section!
Oh well, maybe next time…Sigh…

They also had an old building filled with different kinds of historical displays…

I was so excited when I saw some quilters demonstrating the art of hand quilting. It was fun talking to them.

There was also different sewing machines from the early 1900s

Outside, there was a large display of different kinds of machinery and other “vehicles”

It was a fun time, just walking around, enjoying the different areas. It was a small fair but there was something for everyone… Rides, food, contests,…

There were several groups performing at various stations and I enjoyed listening to them.

I’ll leave you with a picture of these two sweeties…

Happy Fall/Autumn,
Daisy

I love The Lord because he hears
my voice and my supplications.
Because he has inclined his ear to me,
Therefore I will call upon him
as long as I live.
Psalm 116:1,2

Have a blessed Sunday!

Flying Balloons

Posted in Photography, Travel, tagged flying, Photo Drive, photography, Travel on August 21, 2014| 16 Comments »

Because my husband & I often leave very early in the morning…

We see different things…

On this lovely morning,

we saw many hot-air balloons in the sky…

some were just taking off

while others were already way up high.

I think it would be so much fun to take a ride on one!

These photos were taken with my phone

as I frantically moved around from one car window to the next

trying to get at least one of the balloons hovering above us…

(No, I wasn’t driving the car) 🙂

We’ve seen them before… maybe next time I’ll be able to show you

a group of them up in the sky…

It’s a beautiful sight.

Blessed

Posted in Photography, Travel, Uncategorized, tagged flowers, hiking, Mountains, photography, Travel on August 5, 2014| 24 Comments »

My husband & I recently celebrated out 30th wedding anniversary!!

…to celebrate, we planned a very special trip,
however, things don’t always go as planned,
and I found myself in the ER just two days before
we were scheduled to leave on our trip.

I am so thankful that it was nothing serious and I am recovering.
If you’ve ever been in the ER,
especially if you have a lot of pain,
all kinds of thoughts want to rush in
and fill your mind with visions of what could happen…
It’s not easy to keep those thoughts from taking over.

I thank God that I felt his peace,
His comfort,
and his strength.
…and that I was happily released about 5 hours later!!

We didn’t exactly get to go on the trip we wanted,
but we did go to a nice place and get some fresh air
up in the Blue Ridge Mountains…

We went on a hike and I’d like to show you
some of the things we saw…

It was hard to walk past the pretty flowers
without stopping to take 5-105 photographs…
My husband is a very patient man.

We came across this bench with a heart shaped by flowers!

Some of the more steep areas had steps…

We had a great time!

Now we’re ready for another 30 years of wedded bliss!!

I am blessed beyond measure!
My husband is my best friend,
he is an amazing person in many ways,

…and we’re still very much in love!

Looking forward to all God has for us!

Light

Posted in Photography, Sunday, Uncategorized, tagged Direction, inspirational, Mountains, photography, Scripture, Sunday on July 20, 2014| 9 Comments »

…God is Light, and in Him there is no darkness at all. If we say that we have fellowship with Him and yet walk in the darkness, we lie and do not practice the truth; but if we walk in the Light as He Himself is in the Light, we have fellowship with one another, and the blood of Jesus His Son cleanses us from all sin. If we say that we have no sin, we are deceiving ourselves and the truth is not in us. If we confess our sins, He is faithful and righteous to forgive us our sins and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness.
I John 1: 5-9
