Autumn Has Arrived

 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
Today was an absolutely beautiful day. I couldn't have asked for better weather. The 70's are much appreciated when the norm has been high 90's and sometimes 100+.  Isn't it so invigorating to be able to open the windows all day? Heavenly. The kids and I enjoyed our time outside today. We walked around the yard and took pictures. My lovely Leah was in tow, but I can't seem to get a good picture of her when she's in my arms. She's too cute to be posting mediocre pictures. You'll see her more soon...she's going to be 3 months in two days. Can't believe it.
The sheep were shorn today. I would have taken pictures, but the hubby and I had quite the time getting them in the pen. Not good. Once that was done, the shearer arrived, and we got down to business. My ladies look great however and I am hoping to get the ram here soon. Can't have lambs with out a Mr. around. And I very much want lambs, as do the kids.
I have been incredibly thankful these past few days. I just finished Hebrews last night (great book!) and also read a bit about a gentleman named Adoniram Judson. He lead a hard life to say the least. I have been thinking all day today about what this fine man went through and it made me very grateful for the life I've been given, for my healthy children, and for the salvation I've received. I am blessed.
