the happenings around here...

It's really raining outside, and Cowboy's pressure washing his pickup, because he saw the pressure washer just sitting on the lawn at his parents' home after we did chores. He has the hood propped open, his hood and work gloves on, and is totally loving it. Right now he's working on spraying the engine section. I bet fun treasures are flying out with the highly pressurized water. My favorite part about this whole experience is that we have to drive on a muddy, puddled road to get home.

Sincerely,

The Accidental Country Girl

Dear A, It's your birthday. I thought I would jot down some notes on what it feels like to live, breathe, and be at this stage in your life. 1. Last night your husband realized that a cake could be nice for your birthday. He panicked, because there is no place to purchase one in the middle of no where. You got nominated to make your own cake. It's going to be delicious. 2. You teach 7th and 8th graders. You've been working on diagramming simple subjects, simple predicates, prepositional phrases, and articles. It is always delightful. 3.

You love your green smoothie each morning. 6. The minimum you drive each day is 120 miles. 7. Cowboy and you are in a good scripture reading/praying groove. You even have FHE each Monday. 8. There is no snow to been had or seen in yo...

sometimes I need only to stand wherever I am to be blessed..

Dear N, I can't believe we've been married five years, today. We've laughed, played, argued, traveled, worked and become something we couldn't have achieved without each other. There's a primary song that says, "God, gave us families to help us become what he wants us to be." He knew I needed you to 'become' a better me. You're my big dreamer and a lingerer. You're my passionate hobbyist and a sincere do-gooder. You're my tease and a talk-it-through-er. So , " Tell me, what is it you plan to do with your one wild and precious life? I plan to spend mine with you. Much Love, A (quotes by Mary Oliver)
