For the beauty of the earth,For the glory of the skies;
For the love which from our birth,
Over and around us lies;
Lord of all, to Thee we raise
This, our hymn of grateful praise.
For the wonder of each hour,
Of the day and of the night;
Hill and vale and tree and flow'r,
Sun and moon, and stars of light;
Lord of all, to Thee we raise
This, our hymn of grateful praise.
For the joy of ear and eye,
For the heart and mind's delight;
For the mystic harmony,
Linking sense to sound and sight;
Lord of all, to Thee we raise
This, our hymn of grateful praise.
For the joy of human love,
Brother, sister, parent, child;
Friends on Earth and friends above,
For all gentle thoughts and mild;
Lord of all, to Thee we raise
This, our hymn of grateful praise.
For The Beauty of The Earth
by Folliott S. Pierpoint, 1864
Caleb is so proud of "his" egg
He has decided for his 6th birthday he wants an Indy birthday...stay tuned to see what I come up with, this one is a challenge I'm a natural at princesses but I don't know about this :)
This weekend we went to the black and blueberry festival at Petals from the Past, since we have done this two years in a row it is now an annual event! We had a blast picking blueberries, eating blueberries (i think i went home with blue teeth), riding horses and feeding sheep. The blueberries were full this year and the blackberries were HUGE!
Look Mom I got good ones
Say "blueberry"
Ella loved feeding the sheep...I think she would have taken one home
Caleb riding Destiny, all went well until he shook all over trying to get a fly off and almost got Caleb off, but Caleb hung on for dear life
Oh the sweet rewards of a day a the blueberry patch!
