Good Evening everyone..
Hope you are all enjoying these lovely June days..
They are so fleeting, aren't they?
We took a little trip last weekend and I snapped a few pics of Grand Lake and the St. John River...
The colours this time of year are beyond beautiful..
Green is my favourite colour and there are so many different hues in just this one photo, eh?
A few quaint looking buildings, too..
This is the old bridge as they have built a new one...
I love taking these drives and looking at everyone's gardens and such..
Do you??
I have my Kitchen Aide fixed so today I made a few banana breads for hubby..
Our oldest grandson is graduating this year !!
He is a such a great guy and not because he is our grandson but he really is..
He excels at whatever he puts his mind to and has had some wonderful experiences this past year..
He attended a week of Confederation meetings in Charlottetown,
P.E.I.. and loved it all..
He was selected to join the Student Legislature in our capital city of N. B. and was voted in by the students to be Premier for the weekend..
This past weekend he was chosen to represent New Brunswick at the 2015 Youth Ambassador Caucus in Ottawa..
Jared at the Parliament Buildings in Ottawa..
And then in July he is headed for China to represent our province as a member of the Junior Team Canada with Global Vision on a trade mission..
We are very proud of our grandson..
His accomplishments will always amaze us and gladden our hearts.
We are sure that God will have his hand on his life and he will have blessings that may take him all over the world..
And that would be awesome ...
But our one ambition for our grandson is that he be a man after God's own heart..
Then everything else can follow...
I know I sound like a typical grandma and I am...
But mostly I am a thankful Grandma...
To be blessed with all of our grandsons is something that I thank God for every day..
Thanks once again for visiting today..
I promise not to go on about my grandsons until the next one graduates.. grin..
I do not often talk about our family but they only graduate from high school once.. smile..
Take care, dear hearts..
Congratulations to your grandson Faye :0) What joy to see Our Lord working in our young people's heart :D mari

Congratulations to all that your wonderful grandson has achieved, you are certainly blessed.
ReplyDeleteHello Faye! You are so amazing and such an inspiration! I love your blog! I also have a blog but I'm very new at it. I see you love primitive as much as I do. My house is totally primitive! I love your crafts!!! I am planning a visit to your shop this summer, God willing.
ReplyDeleteMy blog is Primitivepattipunchneedle.com. I do not promote or sell anything on there but I like showing and teaching people crafty things. My life is similar to yours in that department!
May God continue to bless you and your family

ReplyDeleteHI Faye! Thank you for visiting my blog and following! So of course I had to visit you too and am so very glad that I did!! I love your photos! I love just heading out on a drive to no where particular and take in the views. Old country stores, old churches, beautiful scenery, people going about their day, the gardens, the foods......all fun to see these wonderful things. I am a "sit on a bench and watch people" kind of gal too...... LOL! Is that a bad thing? Congratulations to your wonderful grandson and wishing him a very bright future! I know you are beaming with pride and thanks!
ReplyDeleteI think it's perfectly okay to brag on our children and grandchildren. I don't think we do it enough really. Love the pictures. Congratulations to your grandson.
ReplyDeleteThat's awesome Faye. So blessed, I agree after following God, the rest are fringe benefits...
ReplyDeleteCongratulations to your Grandson, it is lovely to read all about him, you are so proud of him.
ReplyDeleteLovely photo's, have you ever gone to PEI, I would love to go.

Congratulations to Jared on his high school graduation and his accomplishments. May he keep his eyes on Jesus and walk the path the He leads him into. My grandson is still so young but he is so adorable. My dau-in-law sent photos of their camping trip. aw, Owen is so cute and so is his sis, Melody. Fun to watch them grow....oh too fast! The banana bread looks delicious. Wish I could just pop through the laptop screen into your kitchen for a slice of bread. I'd bring the tea! God bless and have a blessed week!!
ReplyDeleteGood morning Faye - such a lovely post.
ReplyDeleteAs always I love taking a tour of your beautiful country...makes me dream a little. Like a mini cyber vacation! By the way - I did a couple Pinterest clicks of the old barns if you don't mine, if so I'll remove them.
And a HUGE CONGRATULATIONS to your grandson...why, I even feel proud of him!!!
Thank you for sharing this with us and I wish him all the best.
Blessings
Karen
