As we look back over this past season, we are so thankful for all of God's many blessings. We had a fun schedule with four Christmas Concerts in two weeks, a lot of music practice, our trip in October, a field trip, Thanksgiving, continued work around the farm (especially our barn!), etc. It is always a blessing to spend time together as a family in ministry and work!
Working on the barn...
"Can we drive, too?"
We always get some of the prettiest sunrises and sunsets!
Dad, Mom, and Benjamin enjoying lunch out.
We got a big load of hay for free, thanks to some very generous people!
Singing at a Church's Senior Luncheon.
We were able to attend a banquet, hosted by a local Church, in support of the organization that we adopted Joseph and Benjamin through.
Working on the flooring for the barn.
Taking our family picture.
Attending a "Thankful" lunch!
Luke and Isaac installed an aerator for our pond.
You can see by the algae in our pond that we needed an aerator (it provides oxygen
in the water, which helps decrease the algae).
Packing Operation Christmas Child shoe boxes.
Girl's shoe box
The boys' shoe boxes.
Spending time with a friend.
Watch out, Judge!
Our cats like trying to help us work on the computer!
Seems like Cloud can never get away from the guineas!
We love all the little critters that come around our farm!
Luke made delicious pies for Thanksgiving!
Tearing up bread for the stuffing...
Dad grills breakfast for everyone on Thanksgiving morning.
Isaac's work of art!
Fun times at the park.
Isaac and Luke went to Kansas for a business trip.
Whenever we go to our little airport, we love sitting in this area and watch the planes takeoff.
Judge missed Isaac and Luke while they were away!
These two...:)!!
"God made me beautiful!"
The yearly batch of Peppermint Layered Fudge!
What doesn't belong in the picture?!
Setting up for our Christmas Concert!
Then it began!
"Georgia Snow" (aka frost)!
Another Christmas Concert!
We always make the most of our time together!
After looking through this post, I noticed how it has many pictures of our black kitten, Shade! She actually went missing a week ago, and we haven't been able to find her, so here are a few more in memory of her.

*Happy New Year, everyone! We are looking forward to wonderful family travels this year, new projects, exciting new additions to our farm, the opportunities God gives us, and all the blessings the Lord bestows on us as we follow Him!
"This I recall to my mind, therefore have I hope.
It is of the LORD'S mercies that we are not consumed, because his compassions fail not.
They are new every morning: great is thy faithfulness.
The LORD is my portion, saith my soul; therefore will I hope in him."
(Lamentations 3:21-24)
