"The aged women likewise, that they be in behavior as becometh holiness, not false accusers, not given to much wine, teachers of good things; that they may teach the young women to be sober, to love their husbands, to love their children, to be discreet, chaste, keepers at home, good, obedient to their own husbands, that the word of God be not blasphemed." Titus 2:3-5

About Me

Oregon, United States
I am a happy, Christian, wife and post-homeschooling mother. I have spent the last several years homeschooling and now I am "adjusting" to a new season of life as "empty nester". In 2010 we moved to be Host/Caretakers at a Bible Camp. We look at our ministry here as preparing the way for the gospel to be shared as well as encouraging believers in their daily walk. I am a farmgirl at heart and love the country, I love gardening and food preserving. I also, love tea parties!! I also have a Titus 2 heart and want to share with anyone willing to listen and learn. I love having friends over and teaching them how to make bread or put up pickles. And as we work, I love to encourage them to love their husbands and their children and to be Keepers at Home and all that implies and I love that you let me do that here!! Hope you enjoy visiting my farm and walking through a journey in life with me.......I hope at some point in time I can encourage you in your walk and in your home..........

Summer Daze Tea on the Veranda

At the May Farm!
With the help of my wonderful husband, we have
created a "Tea Room" on our front porch....
Above he put a flower box on a piece of
lattice to block wind.....
Below I have added some tidbits to
make it homey and "tearoomish" :)
We are set and ready for our first
group of 8 ladies!!


And here they are..... celebrating two of the ladies
birthdays!!

That is tea on
the Veranda!!

So, I know I promised to be back Monday.
Again, it was computer issues.
I just now learned how to download
and resize and post
on my daughters computer.
My hubby is still working out
of town and has the laptop
which is what I am familiar with
...he was home last weekend,
but may be gone for more than a week,
almost two weeks this time.
Then they should be done.

There is rumor that he may go to
a job in C'ourdelaine, do you
know that is where
Mary Jane's new store is!!
Mary Janes Farm!!
Wouldn't that be fun?? I am sure
my darling daughter would
not mind tending the garden for
a couple days....hmmmm.
