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

Birth Day for Maverick!

Back in the saddle again!!! All it took was two metal parts to get this chair back in the business of holding DH and Annie. Lazy Boy recliner is 20 years old … I would have opted for a new one, but he insisted he wanted to keep his chair! The towels covering the chair have kept the fabric in great condition.


These kids are back in the saddle again also … school started this week for them.





Each one of them is special and unique. Praying for a good year for them … to be good students, good role models in the things that make for good character, and for their minds to be filtered and protected from the world's ideas. All of them so far exhibit excellent character and eagerness to learn! 

A new kid in town!

This one is over the sink

Unedited pics of my light fixtures which our buddy Fred installed this week. The lights are so bright, I don't think you can tell how pretty they are. The LED bulbs are supposed to burn 3 hours each day for 22 years!!! Hahaha!! I sure hope so because putting the light bulbs in was really tricky in that I could hardly get my hands in the glass. We sure do appreciate Fred ... he is the one who fixed the chair and works around our house doing things I can't. 

Several of the broken things mentioned previously have been taken care of or in the process. The hatch door on the Sequoia is fixed ... again! The recliner fixed, door clips are on the way to fix the storm door, and I have an appointment with Apple on Monday to fix my phone!

Nonnie, I have been wanting to toss Ted's recliner and he refuses to let it go. Hope D.H.is loving his chair also. Oh it just seems way too soon for school...but it's started all around us here in Indiana. New lighting looks so nice. Those lights will use less power. Oh that sweet new baby...wouldn't you just love to snuggle it. Blessings to all, xoxo, Susie

I think you should share your Fred with others. When is he available to visit Florida? The light fixtures are lovely! Those men do love their chairs! Happy weekend!

Everyone needs a Fred in their life. lol Love the new light fixtures and I hope those bulbs last like they are supposed to--they should for the price!

That is one of the only problems we have had with the Sequoia-the back hatch...fixed twice over the years. It runs beautifully and looks like new and has almost 500,000!!!!! miles on it. The dealership can't believe it.

Happy back-in-the-saddle for everyone and happy new baby! xo Diana

Congratulations on the new baby. That's very exciting. Love the new lights. I know we have to change all of our kitchen lights to LED.

Another beautiful baby in your family. I too hope this is a great year for all our grandchildren who are growing up so fast in a very hurried and confusing world. My son's youngest was delivered to college this past week, so a big new adventure for her. So glad you were able to get all your fixing done and I do love the new light fixtures. Good job!

Oh what a sweet new baby Maverick is! So happy for your family. And happy for your DH who is loving his "old chair" revived again! Your light fixtures are beautiful! I know you will enjoy them. And prayers for all the kiddos going back to school. May God watch over them and keep them in all their ways. Glad you have a friend named Fred to help with all the stuff. We also appreciate knowing people who can do handy fix it jobs for us. Such a blessing.
Have a wonderful week.
