Farm Pictures

Scott loves for me to display pictures of the farm on my blog.
Here is a few new ones we took. We have seen a large number of turkeys lately in the field.
I took a picture of one of our bulls this afternoon. He is one of our largest calves. I think he was born in January. We have had about 6 or so calves born since him. They are growing fast.
We are very thankful for the rain that has made us have nice grass for them to graze on.
Check out Hunter and Scott with the watermelons that were grown in our field this summer at bottom of page.
Have a blessed day.

Go Away Fay

Just thought I would share a few pictures of our farm flooded by Fay. SOOOO ready for Fay to go away and stay. At least we can get in and out of our home and road. We need to remember to pray for those whose homes were destroyed by Fay. Scott said he has seen lots of fallen trees, power lines and flooded homes on his beat.
Blessings,
Sherry

Summer's Here

Hello to all my long lost blogging buddies,
I know it's been a few months but I'm gonna try to post at least once a month this summer if not more.
We are just finishing Vacation Bible School up and had a nice turn out. We have some super teachers this year and one of our youngest teachers has done an amazing job with her class this year. The kids love and respect her and she has led 5 children to the Lord this week. Can I get a Amen. That's what it's all about right there. It seems to be a lot of work but oh sooooooooooo worth every minutes of time and effort that goes into it.
I'm looking forward to a vacation coming up soon with my parents and son.
Hope everyone has a safe, fun and cool summer.

Spring Break Fun

I know it's been awhile but hopefully I am back blogging again. Guess I have just been lazy.
Hunter was on Spring Break from school last week and we really stayed on the go. His friend was in a cheer leading competition in Jacksonville so we went to see her and stayed with my parents and visited friends for a few days. He was thrilled to hang out with his buddy Jared some. Back to Palatka to meet his friend at the Clay County fair Tuesday. Wednesday we took my parents to a museum and out to dinner. Thursday back to Jax for Hunter and Scott to go deep sea fishing and Scott's Mom and I spent the day shopping. On Friday we went to Wild Adventures in Valdosta, GA and met his friend, one of her friends and her Mom . We were so tired by the end of the day but we braved it again on Saturday for about 1/2 a day before the rain started. I was ready to head home but stopped too shop a bit at some outlet stores. Sunday after church we had a VBS meeting to get things rolling. Looks like it's gonna be a fun VBS this year. We will take an imaginary trip to Hawaii. I'm excited since I haven't made it there in person YET. If you have never helped with VBS you should at least once in your life. It is lots of fun and what a blessing to see little one's come to know Jesus.
Until next time.
Because He Lives

Special Delivery

Shadow had 3 kittens this morning. They are so cute. Mom and kittens seems to be doing fine. She is being such a good Momma.

Dad and Scott finished putting up a fence yesterday. Praise The Lord... No more opening and closing 2 gates every time I leave the house. YIPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPEEEEEEEEEE

Dad planted sunflowers running along the fence line in front of and down one side of our house. I can't wait to see them in full bloom.

Hunter started soccer practice Tuesday. He is very excited to be playing again and to have the same awesome coach he had last season.

Please keep my brother Jerry in your prayers. He is now in Iraq learning how to turn salt water into fresh. He is not in the military but working over there as a civilian for the next year.
My prayer is that he learns this trade and can come back home and use it to help solve the water problems in Florida.

Please keep the Tribeck family in your prayers. Jim went home to be with the Lord last night. I am so thankful we have such an awesome God to take care of us.

Blessings...

Spring is in the Air

My parents came for a visit yesterday. This morning Hunter and Dad went out to the garden Dad plowed up a few weeks ago and began working the dirt again so they could plant. Hunter loves spending time with his Papa and I think Papa is pretty fond of Hunter too.

We had another calf born yesterday. He is really cute. That makes 5 new calves since January.

Our cat Shadow is going to be a Mommy soon also. We are all very excited to see the new kittens. I made shadow and inside cat since she's so close. I lock her up in my bathroom at night but when she started meowing at 5:30 this morning she came very close to becoming an outside cat again :()

On Feb 22nd we had a storm come through. It messed up our new gazebo we put on our deck last summer and bent Hunter's trampoline in half almost. Praise the Lord no one was hurt.

I'm really excited about VBS planning starting at our church. I love the fact that so many children come to know Christ during VBS. It's such a wonderful opportunity for everyone to get involved and invite someone to come join the fun. If you have never helped during VBS you are really missing so serious fun.

Blessings

Family Fun

My parents and Aunt and Uncle from N.Carolina came for a visit this past week. It was so great to see everyone. My Uncle Bill is my Mom's brother. We played on the farm, went to church, out to dinner, shopped and enjoyed each others company. I wish they could have stayed longer. It always seems you run out of time for the things you want to do with company. Hopefully they will come back soon. We plan on visiting them over summer vacation.
We had another calf born this past week. He is solid black except a little white on his face like his momma. He is very small but so cute. Speaking of babies our Cat that we just got in Oct is gonna have kittens. She is such a great cat. I hope her kittens are as sweet as she is. She's solid black. The other night we saw a tiger colored male on our back porch. Not sure who's cat it is but it was very pretty. I'll post pictures when they arrive.
Hope everyone is doing well.
Blessings
