Carameled Apples








Ellen dipped hers in sprinkles.


I had caramel sauce on ice cream.


Happy Birthday Ellen!






Today is Ellen's birthday! We went to Panera this morning and had breakfast. Then came home and Ellen opened her birthday gifts. I gave Ellen a cardigan and a scarf for her birthday. I also made myself one because I liked it so much. ( I made them both a little big so we could grow into them.)

In Chist Alone



In Christ alone my hope is found
He is my Light, my strength, my song;
This Cornerstone, this solid Ground,
Firm through the fiercest drought and storm.
What heights of love, what depths of peace,
When fears are stilled when strivings cease.
My Comforter, my all in all,
Here in the love of Christ I stand.

In Christ alone, who took on flesh,
Fullness of God in helpless Babe!
This gift of love and righteousness,
Scorned by the ones He came to save.
'Till on that cross as Jesus died,
The wrath of god was satisfied.
For every sin on him was laid;
Here in the death of Christ I live.

There in the ground his body lay,
Light of the world by darkness slain;
Then, bursting forth in glorious day,
Up from the grave He rose again!
And as He stands in victory,
Sin's curse has lost its grip on me;
For I am His and He is mine,
Bought by the precious blood of Christ.

No guilt in life, no fear in death,
This is the pow'r of Christ in me;
From life's first cry to final breath,
Jesus commands my destiny.
No pow'r of hell, no scheme of man,
Can ever pluck me me from his hand;
'Till he returns or calls me home,
Here in the pow'r of Christ I stand!

A Milk Trip



Dad and I went out to get milk at a farm in Elmwood, NE last Tuesday. When we went into the little building where they keep the milk. We left the back of our car open and this curious kitten climbed into the back of our car.

Isn't she cute! (Sorry I didn't get a picture of the kitten in our car.)



They also raise chickens, goats, pigs, and cows.

Juncos!


The Juncos are back; winter is coming soon.

Our Mini Melon Bed







In our backyard we have a compost pile and earlier this summer we put our Cantaloupe and Watermelon rinds in there. (We have a fence around compost pile so Ginger won't get it.) And the Cantaloupe seeds started growing up the fence! Just recently has it started producing fruit.
