Grandpa has a Christmas tree farm, but also grows pumpkins, berries, apples, corn, and raises beef on a pretty large scale--supplies all of us with these products!

My first visit to your blog...I really loved it. Jesus shines through! What a beautiful family you have. I enjoyed your music too. Lincoln Brewster leads the worship at a church about 30 minutes from our house. I think I may be putting his song 'Surrender' on my new music list next week. Thanks for the idea.
God Bless, Joanne
