Thanks Sharon! :-)

These are actually some friends of mine I stayed with for a few days. My family is similar to theirs so it isn't that different from what a day in our life would look like. Except for their cow and milk goats- we only have a donkey and Boer goats!

Have a great day!

Stonehenge My dad and I went along with a tour group from the US to learn more about the history of Operation Tiger. We got to meet two American veterans who also came to England.

He takes the hearts we offer; And fills them with His glorious beauty,                joy and peace; And in His service as we're growing stronger, The calls to great achievements still increase. The richest gifts for us on earth, or in                 the heavens above, Are hid in Christ. In Jesus we receive                  The best we have. And is our best too much? O friend, let us                 remember  How once our Lord poured out His soul for us, And in the prime of Hi
