Father's Day - 2023

 

We are so thankful for our wonderful dad and the way he leads our family to follow God and His Word, works hard to provide for our needs, and for all the wisdom he has imparted to us. 
Happy Father's Day, Dad!

"The righteous man walks in his integrity; 
his children are blessed after him."

Life Update #2

 Jared closed on a house and property in April! He's pretty excited about owning his own place now! 

The whole family went out to see the place for the first time the day he closed on it.
Opening the door for the first time as the owner!
It has 20 acres of land.

There have been two new additions to the Silvey farm recently...Bear and Lottie!
Bear is the son of our male dog, Boone, and looks just like his daddy!
We found Lottie abandoned by her mother when she was about a week old, so we got to experience  bottle feeding an animal for the first time!
Amanda dug up one row of our potatoes and got about 70 pounds so we had a big canning day putting those up!
Sarah and I did all of the peeling and cutting...
...and Amanda did the canning part.

28 quarts of potatoes!



"Seek the LORD and His strength; seek His face evermore! Remember His marvelous works which He has done, His wonders and the judgments of His mouth." -Psalm 105:4,5

Life Update

 Hello! It has been awhile since there's been a life update on the blog, so I put together some pictures of what we've been up to this year so far. It is a busy season for us right now with remodeling our new house, garden work, and other little things. I hope you enjoy the recap!

Farmers Market started up the first week of May!
The kitchen is kept busy with lots of baking the day before market!
Mom started making sourdough bread to sell this year.
Planting potatoes earlier this Spring.


Planting cabbage(unders Saunders supervision😁).
Jared bought a walk-behind tractor this year and that has been a big help in the garden.
It's green bean time again!
Some carpenter friends from Kansas came down at the end of March to help us with building the additions on our new house.
Mixing concrete for concrete footings.
We girls enjoyed watching the progress and taking a walk in the neighborhood!
Lunchbreak!
This room will be the laundry room/sunroom.
We really enjoyed getting to visit with Mr. Keith and Keiton and are thankful for all their help on the house!
We celebrated Mom's birthday this month!

Mom has had a tradition of having some sort of strawberry dessert for her birthday so this year Sarah made her a strawberry pie.
