Independence Day Recap

By: Erin

We had an exciting, blessed, and fun time on Independence Day!  Since everyone was free from their normal duties, we decided to spend the day outside working on our barn.  That evening we enjoyed a delicious meal and incredible fireworks with friends.  It had called for rain all day, and towards evening it began to rain.  Thankfully, the rain soon stopped!  Then, when we began the fireworks, it started to thunder threateningly in the distance, but it never rained heavier than a drizzle.

Since the United States of America was founded on Biblical Principles, our family remembers this day and we thank God for the freedom to worship Him.  We do not take this for granted, thus, we celebrate God's blessings!

Prepping areas for concrete.  The section above was poured on Saturday!

We spent some time after dinner to praise God for the freedom and liberty He has given our country and through His Son, Jesus Christ.

Fireworks (& Sparklers!)!

"Blessed is the nation whose God is the LORD; 

and the people whom he hath chosen for his own inheritance."

(Psalm 33:12)

Happy 22nd Birthday, Isaac!

Happy Birthday, Isaac!  We are so thankful to have you as our brother/son!  Your hard work, cheerfulness, humor, and love for others and the Lord are a blessing to us.  We appreciate your work ethic and organizing and completing so many projects around our farm.  We love you and thank God for you always!

"Blessed is the man that walketh not in the counsel of the ungodly, 

nor standeth in the way of sinners, nor sitteth in the seat of the scornful."

(Psalm 1:1)

Happy Independence Day!

Happy Independence Day!

We are so grateful for all those over the past centuries who have fought for the freedom of our country and given their lives for our sake.  This day is special to us, because we not only enjoy time spent celebrating with family, but remembering the price many have paid for our freedom and all that God has done for us and our nation.  Click the link to watch a song we sang this past Sunday.  

In God We Trust, In God Alone

"Happy is that people, that is in such a case: 

yea, happy is that people, whose God is the LORD."

(Psalm 144:15)
