This weekend was busy... Went to the goodwill while we were out doing our shopping... got a HUGE bag of ribbons for crafting. there is more than I will ever use so I will be selling some of it on Etsy!
Today after Church we went to a FunD raiser for a really good friend of mine. They had a barn fire & lost their milk house, calves, bull, chickens, pigs & 2 of the family dogs! The milk cows had just been put out after their morning milking (thank God)... this was the families lively hood... a century farm that has been in the family for decades! And they would give the shirt off their own backs so that you were warm!
There was such a great turn out! When we left (before the crowds parted) they had raised well over $20,000 not including the silent auction items, the Milk can filled with money donations or the money donated at the local bank ... Like she said... a $20 donation would buy a shovel, a wheel barrel & a hammer... Every little bit counts!
Today we witnessed the generousity of a farm community & the blessings of friendships & family!
