A Peaceful Life

Saturday the 2nd would have been my Great Grandpa Rossy's Birthday. I was 7 when he went to be with the Lord. Happy Birthday Rossy!

When I was a little girl Ross used to bring us bananas every time he would go to town. Once in a while he would bring candy but mostly bananas.

My dad still lives on part of the farm that my Great Grandpa Ross and my Grandpa Gerald farmed. We take our 3 kids and nieces and nephews to that farm to camp and have wiener roasts and just enjoy the beauty and peace of the country.

We enjoy each other and no computer and no phones, except the cell phone for emergencies. We like no street lights and no cars driving by. We enjoy to hear the animals at night. If you live in town or in the city you should take a drive, at least once in your life, far out into the country to just get out and enjoy the stars. It's like the most peaceful sight. Life is so quiet, not rushed, no stress and you feel so close to God out there.

When we go camping in the summer we take lots of pictures. There is a huge maple tree out where we go camping. My husband held my little boy up and he hung his arms over a huge limb and we took a picture of it. This tree has been there since I was a little girl.

The tree and my little boy became a scrapbook page. The simplest of things can become a spectacular memory in a scrapbook page.

If you have any suggestions or ideas for scrapbooking or any stories for a scrapbooker please leave us a post.

Until Next time,
God Bless
