Some pictures of the boys. Micah is now walking really well and they both love to be outside... Even when it's chilly and windy like today! ( I'm avoiding it however... Yuck!)
The dog keeps getting ahold of our pumpkins and gourds and chewing them up.....they are in pretty bad shape as you can see! Yuck. I feel like I can't have anything nice between the boys and the dog!!!!
Upcycled the chalkboard from a old "cutesy" country sign I almost gave to the GW.... And made the pumpkin board with a old pine shelf my Dad salvaged for me.... I even kept all my fingers in the process;) I love that jigsaw! It scares me but gosh I love being able to make my own things! My father in law doesn't know it , but it's the best "gift" I've had in awhile! And I don't think it's even "ours" I think he just left it here for us to use since they live in GA.
Isaiah is OCD with Thomas the train these days...So I'm painting a cardboard box to resemble Thomas for Halloween. In the pic he just has a primer coat... But Isaiah wants to wear him anyways;) he's even got a train whistle built in!
I'm off to Lincoln for a class for work tomorrow and HOPEFULLY a girls night out! IM desperate for a break! Then Micah's 1 yr bday is approaching and my mom's having surgery... And then it's all down hill from there with the holidays! EEK! Better get going.......
Grown by Grace farm is the name of our 14 acre homestead in Iowa. We came up with this name as it is our desire to grow by God's grace here, whether it be our babies, 4 kitties and a woof, crops, or gardens! Jon and I are both born again christians, which means we have a "new life" in Jesus Christ as we recognize Him as Savior of our sins, by His death and resurrection from the cross. I hope to use this blog to share with you some of the Lords blessings on our lil' country life here :)

Bowl rack
I was inspired by Kris at Simply Prim to make my own bowl rack and I did it!!!!! The hardest part was hanging it! It took me months to decide on a secure spot... And I Hate guessing where wall studs are... And those stud finders are a joke!;) But its up ... Hooray!
Funny story... I hung it during the day and was nervous what the hubby would say or think.... So he got home and noticed ( shocker in itself) and told me it was a piece of crap! (GASP!) He just will never understand primitive beauty;) of course he would rather baseball bobble heads were there! Well.... That night our good friend Jo came over to watch the boys so we could have a REAL date and immediately saw my "masterpiece" and announced "that is SOOO cute!!!!" Lol. Husband said she isn't welcome in our home anymore! haha. (He is very sarcastic folks....I promise he's a good guy)
SO this is my FIRST post using the blogger app on my iPhone... Lets see if it works here........
