The kitchen...
Into the laundry room...
Notice the baskets over on the bench on the stair landing? Those belong to the children. They each have one. (Madelyn must have had hers upstairs when this picture was taken). When I fold their clothes, I put them in their baskets. When they are filled, they carry them up and put them away. :)
A yummy snack...
Yarn and knitting items....only a fraction of all that I have. Not totally organized, as you can see, but I'm *real* and *imperfect*. :)
Stained glass on the front door...
Lots and lots of beloved books...
Just so you know (in case you weren't sure already ;) who we serve, in this household...
As the clouds started to roll in, as God brought rain to our area, we did our schooling by lamplight...
I hope you all enjoy your labor day weekend, ahead. Thanks so much for visiting and for taking a lil walk around my house with me. I hope you stop by again, soon.Warmly,
Katy :)

I love to see homes decorated with sayings & Bible verses. A daily reminder as I pass from room to room in my homestead. What we feed our mind with is what we live. Your home is lovely. It brings a peaceful feeling to me when I see the pics. Have a blessed Labor Day weekend!
