Praise the Lord!:o)

I am currently listening to the lovely sound of a chain saw!:o) I am SO excited about this. We have not had the money to buy our wood yet for the winter...and it is getting quite cold out these days. Today....this wood that is already seasoned for two years...was given to us for free!:o) An awful lot of work for my hubby...but he's a lumberjack and he don't care!:o) And....we have wonderful neighbours that are helping!:o)

My heart is filled with thankfulness for what the Lord has provided!:o)
