I'm a couple of weeks behind on posting my pages for the challenges, ATCs, etc. So, grab your favorite drink, sit back and enjoy!
First up, ATC's from my daily devotional, "One Good Word a Day". I have changed some of the verses and have even changed some of the words (in case you happen to be reading the devotional).

Now for the challenges I have completed and misc. since my last post on May 7th:
Rabbit by Georgia Roberts Durston
Done for the Storybook/Fantasy Challenge #3 found here: https://oscraps.com/community/threads/may-challenge-3-storybook-fantasy.39757/
My inspiration for this page came from my walk this morning, seeing a bunny in the field just before I entered the woods.
Journaling reads:
There once was a rabbit, who developed the habit, of twitching the end of his nose,
His brothers and sisters, and various others, said “Look at the way he goes!”
Now one clever bunny, said “That’s very funny, I’ll practice it down in the dell”
The rest said “If he can, we’re positive we can” – and they did it remarkably well.
Now all the world over, where rabbits eat clover and scribble and scratch with their toes,
There’s isn’t a rabbit, who hasn’t the habit, of twitching the end of his nose!

Bird Sanctuary
Done for the Freebie Challenge #4 found here: https://oscraps.com/community/threads/may-challenge-4-freebie.39727/
Journaling reads: We had a dead tree that needed to be cut down. Instead of cutting it all the way to the ground, we decided to cut the split trunk about 10 feet off the ground and create a bird sanctuary of sorts out of it. Mark split one of the trunks and hollowed out an area in the front and back pieces and made a bird house out of it. No birds have taken up residence yet, that we know of. The plan is to add another birdhouse on top of this one to provide a roof. Friday, 5/3/2024

Mother’s Day Weekend 2024
Left:
Friday, May 10, 2024
Jessica, Araya, and Jennifer arrived at Ilene’s at approximately 5:00 p.m. Elisabeth and Brad went to a ball game Abby was play in. Hannah wanted to hang out with us. We were all going to meet at Ruby Tuesday for supper. Ilene joined us and Hannah brought Ryan along. We had a fun time.
After supper, Hannah and Ryan took Araya home with them and the rest of us came to our house. Mark watched TV while Jessica, Jennifer, Ilene and I played Kings in the Corner. Around 10 Elisabeth texted Jessica that the Northern Lights were visible. We all ran outside to look. The only thing we could see was a pinkish glow to the sky. So we decided to chase the Northern Lights like “storm chasers”. We ended up over by Ilene’s where there was a clearing but we still only saw the pinkish glow, except that as I was driving the others saw the flash of color at one point. We finally went back home and Jessica, Jennifer and Ilene headed to Ilene’s for the night.
Saturday, May 11, 2024
Elisabeth, Hannah, Abby, Me, Jessica, Araya, and Jennifer were going to a Mother Daughter Banquet at Elisabeth’s church at 1. We all met early at Elisabeth’s. We played a couple of games of Codenames before getting ready to leave for the banquet. Brad said he was fixing supper for everyone and told me to invite Mark. Mark was busy working outside and was already tuckered out and ended up staying home, showering and crashing on the couch. After the banquet Ryan took Jessica, Jennifer and I for a ride in his jeep through Lexington. When we got back Brad asked us what we wanted for supper as he was going to run to Walmart. We really were not very hungry after the huge lunch we had at the banquet. He ended up ordering some pork and fixings from the Smoke Pit in Salisbury. While Hannah and Ryan drove to pick it up, Elisabeth, Jessica, Jennifer and I played more Codenames. We played 6 games, switching up partners. Jessica was the only one who won 6 times! Guess she was on the right team every time! ;). It started sprinkling on the last game so we went in doors. Hannah and Ryan returned soon after. After supper we all left as the cloud cover and rain made it such that we were not going to get another glimpse of the Northern Lights. Araya spent the night again with Abby. Everyone was going to our church on Sunday.

Happy Mother’s Day! I’m so thankful my girls interrupted their weekends to spend time with me! I loved our girls weekend! And I loved having Jennifer, Tim’s sister, spend the weekend with us, too! We basically grew up together since she and her family moved to KY, right down the street from us, when she was about 10 and I was almost 15. I consider her my forever sister-in-law! <3
We had a wonderful service at church and I loved having my family with me! We took pictures after the service and then Jessica, Araya and Jennifer changed clothes for the trip home. Elisabeth and Brad had lots of pork left to eat, so we all went our separate ways after the services. It was a wonderful weekend! Thank you, Ilene, for allowing my family to spend the nights at your house!
