On Eagle's Wings

On Eagle's Wings
He gives strength to the weary and increases the power of the weak. Even youths grow tired and weary, and young men stumble and fall; but those who hope in the LORD will renew their strength. They will soar on wings like eagles; they will run and not grow weary, they will walk and not be faint. Isaiah 40:29-31

A Visiting We Did Go

This has been a busy week.
My niece, Robyn, visited us for a few days.
It was a good week of resting, visiting, shopping,
and being together.
(She needed a rest - she is a NICU nurse.
Pretty intense job.)
Thanks for coming to see us, Robyn.
 
 
After we took Robyn to the train station,
we headed out to Farmersville to visit with a dear friend ...
and take Trudy for a visit with her buddies.
There was a new kid on the block.
They had to get acquainted with each other.
Cowboy and Trudy
Trudy is going to stay for a couple of weeks while we
do our motorcycle ride and spend time with kids and grandkids.
Fun, fun, fun.
 
Here is a pic of Bettye, the best friend you could ever have.
She is fun-loving and would do anything for you.
As she has proved many times.
Bettye is a person of spunk,
a real spitfire.
Can you tell? ;-)
Trudy got to meet Bettye's chickens.
They all have a name.
 
(Bettye names everything - cars, computers, etc.)
 
Biddy was not in the above pic.
She was on the nest.
Voila!!!
Biddy delivered - warm and fresh out of the chute. ;-)
 
 
Scarecrow
Monarch butterflies everywhere today.
So lovely.

Wow, a Harley Momma? Have a fun trip! Love the butterfly pics...I saw a bunch today too! I always think I would love having some chickens. Then I think...No, just one more thing to remember to feed!

She has to go in the pen and rake it out every day too. Yuckiness!

Nonnie said...

I think about $300 a dozen. ;-)

Nonnie said...

:-)She is. Wish I had a better camera for those butterflies. Your pics at Stone Mountain are gorgeous.

NICU nurses are very special to us, too. Our granddaughter Kate was two months premature and weighed in at 3.6. It was very scary, but she was in great hands.

Motorcycle. Amazing. NOT. All prayers welcome.
