Create a Beautiful Bowl from Ice and Flowers


 Creating a Beautiful Bowl from Ice is not hard and can be used for any occasion, such as a wedding, bridal shower, baby shower or even Christmas dinner. It does take a few steps but it is oh so pretty when done. I live in the country and God blesses me every year with beautiful wild flowers that I used for mine. I hope you try making a beautiful bowl from ice and flowers.


Matthew 6:30 And if God cares so wonderfully for flowers that are here today and gone tomorrow, won't he more surely care for you? You have so little faith!

Family Camp 2011


Zeely wanted to eat lunch on grandma's van
Family camping can be fun but a challenge. First, you have to get your family to agree on a time and a place. We went to Eby Pines in Bristol Indiana the last 2 years. I don’t know where we will go next year.

Zeely wanted to play football with the boys







There was a lot of swimming as the weather was so hot. The boys liked to play touch football and launching water balloons at the girls. The little ones enjoyed simply playing with each other and running around in the stream of bubbles.
Even dogs come to family camp.

For the adults, it was good conversion, swimming, cornhole competition and cooking great meals over hot coals.
Setting in the shade for conversion











Oh and who can forget we made and enjoyed smores.

Back in the USA

The adventure of Andy and Tucker took them to South Africa to help with the love of gardening, people and children. They left in August 2010 and returned 10 months later in June 2011.

My son-n-law and daughter had a going away fund raising party for them and a celebration for their safe return. 



 It was a fun filled weekend of food, family and fun.

Cool Firework Show
Duck Eggs
After we returned home, Terry was walking our property to see if everything was OK and a duck flew out at him. That bird has a nest with 11 eggs in it on our fence row. 

We are hoping to see little ducks emerge someday and hope they can find water as we don’t have any here. What a Great weekend of Food, Family and Fun.
