Keepers of the Home meeting and a Home Challenge

Hello everyone.. 

Hope you all had a great weekend.. 

As you know we had our Keepers of the Home meeting on Saturday morning..

We had a lovely time and squeezed a lot in.. smile.. 

As usual we started out by making breakfast together.. 

One cooked the bacon and another the eggs.. 

Some sliced the OUR NO KNEAD BREAD .... 

And we all had sweet fellowship... 

We had a couple of sweet wee ones with us.. 

You all remember our dear wee Emily... 

Here she is last month chatting with Jackie.. 

It is a better pic of her and Jackie sat up by me and I missed getting her pic this time.. But she was there.. Bless her heart.. 

And here is our newest wee Keeper.. 

Isn't she beautiful?  

This is her mama...

I missed getting her pic, too.. Forgive me, girls.. 

Anyway... We had several new ladies and we were so pleased to have you all.. 

We hope you come back again.. smile.. 

Now.. 

What did we do? 

I demonstrated to the girls how to make a loaf of our famous no knead bread.. 

It only took 3 minutes, though.. 

And then after we ate we had a small lesson.. 

This year we are going to concentrate on making our homes everything that we have dreamed they could be.. 

In fact we are going to journal about it all year long..

The dear girls even have homework to do.. 

Besides decorating their own journals..

We are hoping to learn not only how we want to decorate our homes but how we can have the Lord as the head of each one.. We are going to concentrate on the difference that God can make and cultivate the sweet joy that our homes can bring to our families..

We are going to close our eyes and dream.. smile.. 

Each month we will look at something different from gardening to cooking a special family dinner.. 

Perhaps, you sweet ladies would like to come on the journey WITH US and journal your own dreams and hopes for a Christian home.. 

Then we made some homemade toiletries..

And they wanted to make their own

OLD BOOK PAGES TABLE RUNNER .. 

All in all we had a blessed time.. 

Thank you, dear Lord.. 

Such a faithful God we serve.. 

We prayed for a dear reader of the blog who needs strength and healing.. 

Tomorrow, Lord willing I will share the recipe for this apple cake that we had for breakfast.. 

I am kind of thinking that this post is long enough already.. grin.. 

Thank you dear hearts for dropping by.. 

I enjoy hearing from you all ... 

IF you are interested in joining us in this CHALLENGE to make the MOST IMPORTANT PLACE ON EARTH as blessed as we can please leave a comment or email me at

**Just a wee note.. 

The journal will be a private thing for you all to do.. 

This is just some inspiration for you all that I hope will be a blessing.. 

A bit of sharing with you after we have our meeting.. 

OK?

LOVE TO YOU ALL...
