My Cup Runneth Over at Heritage Acres Farm...

A day at home...

Good Morning!  I love my home so much.  I love being a keeper of the home.  Yesterday was just glorious all the way around.  We worked out in the yard, we baked and worked in the house, we learned and loved and just enjoyed all of God's goodness. 
We plowed up another garden spot, it still needs some more work to be done on it, because it has a LOT of grass.
I want to put some more corn out but I don't know if I will be able to get it ready for this years planting.
Here Eli is working on weeding the cucumber and squash row.
We have finally found our baby kittens and my son loves to bring them to me while I am working in the garden.  He likes for me to put them in my apron...
The rest of this week will be fun, I am going to post a homemade mayo recipe, I have A Day in My Life post tomorrow, I will update about my worms and taters...  so stay tuned...
Have a great day!

We have been spending a good amount of time out in the garden as well. I love getting my hands in the dirt and watching as God blesses us with great growth on our plants and lots of food!

I am amazed by you!

Your posts this week have really blessed me. I've been moody and whiny and have just been an absolute bear to my children. I'm tired and hungry and pregnant, and complaining. Oh! How I love your heart and your optimism and your true and earnest gratefulness for the blessings of the Lord, not just in life but in every little thing. I so needed a rebuke and your loving heart has done it ever so tenderly. Thank you my sweet friend!
