Homemaking Mondays: Time to Fly the Nest

 

Hello!
How are your July days going?

Here we are preparing to move 

with all that goes with it. 

My girls are preparing to fly the nest as well

and have been preparing along with us.

It is a bitter sweet time.

I will greatly miss them being home

but I'm so happy and excited for them

as they go and prepare a home for themselves.

It is a pleasure to watch them prepare

as I see and hear of all the things

they are considering.

They have been listening and learning

about homemaking as they grew up.

Now they can put all of that into practice

in their own home.

Above is a few of the things I put 

together to help them in their home.

We've been having some darker cooler days

with some much needed rain.

Sometimes a candle just needs to be lit 

to help dispel the drab darkness of those days.

The garden has been giving lots of beautiful

greens and veggies for the family.

This week I had the pleasure of helping a friend

decorate a wedding cake with some fresh flowers.

It was so lovely and I heard they enjoyed it.

So this past week has been filled with sorting and packing.

Re-homing items no longer needed 

and boxing up those things we want to keep. 

We have a few weeks left before we must be moved

but it's good to be prepared.

The community market we attend

has begun again and we have a table there. 

I love going as it's so much more then just selling some things.

It's a time to enjoy each other's company in the community.

Thanks for dropping by! 
Love and Prayers,

Jennifer
