Learning Water Color Resist

Do everything without complaining and arguing, so that no one can criticize you.  Live clean, innocent lives as children of God, shining like bright lights in a world full of crooked and perverse people.  Philippians 2:14-15

If you've been reading my blog much lately, you may have noticed quite a few posts about illustrating my Bible.  In a Bible Journaling Facebook group a fellow participant called it "praying in color".

Welcome Spring 2019 *Link Party*

Growing Tomatoes from Seed to Table

Who loves tomatoes?  This girl!

Tuesdays with a Twist - link party time!

Our news this week...  I didn't have to work on Friday, so spent the afternoon with our grand daughters hiking on their property.  We played in a small creek and climbed on large old, tangled grapevines.  The neighboring property has a nice pond with a small waterfall next to it.  We had permission to walk down to it and watched a couple of turtles enjoying the sun.  It was a lovely Spring day for shenanigans outside!

Here's another photo from October when we visited Botanical Garden of the Ozarks.

I am so glad you are here to party today!  There is no limit on links as long as they are family friendly including giveaways, Etsy shops and other link parties.  Please remember to visit some fellow party animals and leave positive comments!

Let's Party! Tuesdays with a Twist.

Our news this week...  Mild weather has continued.  Thank goodness!  In the evenings, we have enjoyed our supper outside near our little garden pond.  It feels like such a treat to be out of the house!

Bath Powder and Pinterest Challenge Blog Hop

Welcome to the March Pinterest Challenge Blog Hop. The purpose of this Pinterest Challenge is to motivate all the participants of this hop (and you too) to not just pin, but to make it happen!

This month, I chose to make Orange Bath Powders from a lovely blog, Strangers & Pilgrims on Earth, then I went a little crazy and tried my own Calendula Bath Powder.

Easter Bonnet for Baby and De Stash Challenge Blog Hop

This vintage doll was a gift from my Fabulous Aunt to our sweet little grand daughters and their favorite toy at my house.  No matter what she is wearing, they must change her clothes immediately upon their arrival.

Finally, brothers and sisters, whatever is true, whatever is noble, whatever is right, whatever is pure, whatever is lovely, whatever is admirable—if anything is excellent or praiseworthy - think about such things.  Philippians 4:8

Tuesdays with a Twist - LINK PARTY

Our news this week...  We've begun Spring cleaning on the flower beds.  Our vegetable garden is way too mucky wet to do anything there yet.  The weather is teasing us with warm, lovely days and then flipping back to cold, so it's hard to resist the urge to plant something.  Our daffodils and crocus are blooming, though.  It's lovely to see some colors after the long, gray winter.

The Queen and Her Throne

When blankets come out of the dryer, they get flipped over our double rocking chair, just to make sure they are completely dry before being folded and put away.

Link with Us! Tuesdays with Twist

Our news this week...  We had some wonderful weather early last week, but today there's snow and quite a few schools are closed.  It was a nice weekend to stay inside and get some projects done.  'Can hardly wait to show you what I've been sewing!  What do you enjoy when temperatures are swinging low?
