Stewed Pumpkin

Hey! I thought I'd share with ya'll a little bit of my experience stewing pumpkin!

Really though . . . all I'm sharing is pictures and my recipe. So. There are the pictures. Here are the steps I take to achieve that steaming orange mass, and one stuffed jar of pre-Thanksgiving goodies:

I choose a pumpkin from the many decorating our deck out the front door, then I wash the outside to get all the dirt off. Next I get the biggest knife in the drawer and with some effort, cut the pumpkin in half, scoop all the "stuff" out, and then cut it into fifteen or so large chunks. After this, my hands are already sore, 'but with the prize before my eyes, I find the strength to press on' :) I carefully remove the crust. The skin. The rind. And chop the peeled pieces into cubes, toss em into a huge pot, add a little water and it simmers for two hours, and after that I stir it often for four more hours or so.

Into a jar it goes and voila! You will want to then cook the seeds you scooped out, and make pumkin muffins!

It also makes a very yummy tasting pie! Praise the Lord for all things homemade!

God bless you!

Our Bright Lights Group

Jesus is the Light!

For the past few weeks, we've had the blessing to join with some other girls on Wednesdays to encourage one another in the Lord! In a world of darkness, JESUS is the light. As followers of Christ, we want to be bright lights!

Our Bright Lights group usually consists of reading from our devotional book and listening to an accompanying CD, then discussion, a book reading, and prayer time! We also have been working on some crochet projects, and hope to make some things that we can donate to whoever God lays on our heart. Our times together have been blessed!

If you're ever able to join us, please do! Girls of all ages are welcome!

Build Each Other Up

Lets build each other up in Christ

just as God commands!

Lets spread the message far and wide,

that we are in his hands!

its often easy to forget

to speak about his works

we feel shy to bring it up

or have fear of mocking smirks.

Lets not be ashamed to sing out praises

till they over flow our cup

lets proclaim the glory of the Lord

and build each other up!

You are never too old to play Dress Up

I went to my Grandma P. House today!

Mom was going to do my Grandams hair and some of us kids went with her one of them being me!

In my Grandmas back room there's this dress up box full of old clothes and memories, I hadn't looked in there in years so I thought I would peak through the old stuff. I saw all this stuff I remember wearing when I was really little! then I came across something I never remembered wearing before! It was one of those black graduation hats! I thought 'wouldn't it be funny to come out wearing that'!!! So I looked through the box again in search of a black something to wear with it, until I came across the graduation black cape that went with it! No way! I put it on took a look in the mirier and went out to show my mom,Grandma and Chloe. They all laughed! Then one outfit led to the next one! I tried to make them more and more funny! It was so much fun!

I am not to old to do that any more am I?

So my two words to you are you're never too old to play dress up and never try to beat my brother Gid at ping pong! It won't happen =) Believe me I've tried many times!(Yes I played ping pong today!) (Yes with Gid)

God bless you in every way! He has bless me with sooooo many things one of them being a very talented brother!!!(LOL)

Take a Walk to Pray

Just wanted to share this pretty picture with you. It sort of looks like a secret, sacred place.
