thankful

 I have figured out that when I come home there is no telling what may be on my doorstep.

what did we get this week: 1 ziplock bag full of pasta

TONS of squash

TONS of zucchini

tomatoes

apples

cabbage

3 heads of lettuce

peppers

yes. i am so so grateful for the things we find on our doorstep. 

living in the country has its perks for sure. 

tonight's dinner consisted of some lovely local food: 

pasta with squash and zuchini- splashed with a homemade (by ryan) wine sauce-- soooo amazing. 

it was the perfect summer dinner.

 although--- with weather in the 50's at night and highs in the 70's during the day---

it doesn't feel like summer!

a side note- here was one project of the day. 

almost complete!

pictures!!

this is a collage that is going up tomorrow. 

its family photos. this is it laid out on the ground. 

ill post a pic tomorrow once they go up. 

we have 730 breakfast in the morning at church....

i get to be there at 6:15 to help cook. 

so on that note--- im going to bed. 

love & peace from the parsonage
