For the Beauty of the Farm.....
Life here is good.
The beauty that surrounds us is something I treasure.
The pictures I am sharing with you today are some of the things I find the most beautiful
living here at Vue-du-lac farm.

The Song..
Wills trike |
Comes to mind as I walked around
the farm this morning.
That is one of those songs that when the beauty is overwhelming comes to mind and all I can do is sing. My heart is so full and overflowing with the beauty God has blessed us with all around. I can not contain the song just in my mind, it slips right out my mouth and before I know it, I am singing praises to God because of the beauty around me.

Another song that comes to mind is
"It is well with my soul"
That song holds great meaning living here. My soul is at peace with where our lives have taken us. Living here at the Farm is a special thing. And the peace I feel just stepping out on the porch and taking in the beauty that is all around us. God made a gorgeous place when he created this valley.(St. Joe Valley)
This homestead holds special meaning for me.
This is where my family chose to settle down and plant roots. Build their homes and livelihoods. They chose to follow Gods leading to this place. They built homes, barns, and churches. The 3 most important things they needed aside from Gods leading.

IT IS WELL WITH MY SOUL....
When peace like a river attendeth my way....
.....It is well with my soul......
My sin, not in part but the whole,
is nailed to the cross, and I bear it no more...
Praise the Lord Oh my soul.....
