Tea with Sir Knight and Maid Elizabeth before they are off to work |
Time spent in the Word and then on my knees |
A breakfast of German Pancakes |
Master Hand Grenade doing copywork in school |
Miss Calamity hard at work |
My afternoon job - sewing for my business |
Master Calvin - busy at play |
Sir Knight working out the kinks in our can sealer |
Ready for afternoon tea (yes, we have tea twice a day!) |
Sitting down to dinner |
Filling hot water bottles for bed |
All cozy with his bottle - Good Night! |
That is our life in a nutshell!
With five kids, you may get a chuckle out of this, but when I view the pictures of your family and your life, it brings me to a place of peace. Thank you for sharing.

ReplyDeleteYou are one of the wealtheist people I know. The assets you possess greatly surpass the value of gold and silver. Guard them with care and prayer.
Tea twice a day.
ReplyDeleteI have had 'tea time' with my bunch in the past, I need to reinstate it. Such a nice time to relax and talk. We need more of that.
Thanks for the pictures. :)
Blessings,
Chas

Thank you so much for sharing, Enola! captaincrunch said it perfectly! Thank you for blessing my heart today. :)
ReplyDeleteThank you for sharing. You have a beautiful family. I like that you take the time to have tea together. I always say there is nothing a cup of tea or a good night's sleep won't improve. God bless.
ReplyDeletePlease tell us more about the can sealer. Did some looking around on the web and found them but would like to know more about which one you have and how you are using it.
ReplyDeleteThanks,

Beautiful pictures of your day!
ReplyDeleteIs that the can sealer from Lehman's? Just wondering what you can also. Lehman's no longer carries the #10 sealer which is what I was looking for.

Your German pancakes look delicious! I have one on the menu at our restaurant. The customers absolutely love them...what recipe do you use for yours? I'm always looking to tweak mine and make it better which is why I ask.
ReplyDeleteHave you tried putting apples in it and covering it with cinnamon sugar before you flip it over? It is absolutely wonderful that way. You just have to flip it upside down on the plate when it comes out of the oven...It's one of my guests favorite menu items.
Thanks for sharing your day with us...=)
glad to see someone else using hot water bottles.

ReplyDeleteMy 11yo uses a hot water bottle; I use a toddler. ;)
ReplyDeleteI was wondering if you could post your recipe for scones? You teatime looks so inviting!

I love all of your posts, but I especially love the glimpses into your daily life.
ReplyDeleteThe cool thing about the internet is that I can communicate with people from very far away. The sad thing is that I would love to get with some of those people in real life . . . and we're very far away!
Thanks for sharing.
Nice to see actual real life photos of how people live their day to day lives. I always say that the devil's in the details.
ReplyDeleteMight that be a treadle-type sewing machine?
Sometimes I just can't bear to get into the ice cold bed so I preheat it with bricks I put on the woodburning stove. What a life!
