Who Could "Axe" For More?

A little over a week ago we celebrated
my sons' birthday with a little 
family barbecue...

 

Because both sons are such avid outdoorsmen
and hunters...

My amazing daughter-in-love surprised us all
with this incredible "woodsman's" cake!

 It was so adorable!
She is just so talented...she even made her
own fondant!


And to top it all off...
the center was "hunter plaid!"


Even younger brother, Samuel,
kept in theme...
sporting his new "woodsman's beard!"

What a blessed afternoon
with family gathered all around...

Dad and brother, Daniel, look on
as Joshua admires the new blades for his mower...

 And then it was cake time...
My chocolate "wacky" cake
seemed a little dull next to the tree stump!
(smile)


But at least it gave both birthday boys
their own candles to blow out!

Family all together...
Wrapped in the Saviour's Love...
eating, laughing, celebrating...
with more surprises to come! 
Who could "axe" for anything more?
" ...but as for me and my house, 
we will serve the LORD.” 
Joshua 24:15 
Notice the "wood slab" tray...just too much! (smile!)

As We Celebrate...


As many around our country celebrate today...
with parades...
and backyard barbecues...
and fireworks...

May we remember...
to take a moment to pray
for our country...
and the leaders that God has placed
in authority over us...


  "I exhort therefore, that, first of all,
supplications, prayers, intercessions, 
and giving of thanks, be made for all men;
 For kings, and for all that are in authority;
 that we may lead a quiet and peaceable life
 in all godliness and honesty..."
1 Timothy 2: 1-2

Consider the Lilies...


"Consider the lilies how they grow:
 they toil not, they spin not; and yet I say unto you,
 that Solomon in all his glory was not arrayed like one of these..."
Luke 12:27


We awoke this Lord's day to discover
that the lilies on our pond had opened...
displaying all their beauty...

 

A comforting reminder...
that our Lord is in control
and watching over us...

Have a blessed Sunday!
