Winter Days

Merry Christmas to one and all!!!!! :)

Today I'm going to give you some really yummy recipes!

 Baked Apples
~~~~~~~~~~~~
You gut out as many apples as you want, you cut them in half and cut out or scrape out the seeds.
 Then you melt butter(about 1/2 cup for 12 apples) brown sugar(1/2cup for 12 apples) and a teaspoon of cinnamon in a sauce pan until melted and mixed.
 Put your apples in a cake pan or a cookie sheet.
Poor your butter,sugar,and cinnamon into your apples, put in the oven for 15 minutes on 350  or wrap in wax paper and cook over a open fire!

Enjoy!!

It's close to thanksgiving and your thinking about what your thankful for. But are you really thankful?

Ephesians 5:20

20 giving thanks always and for everything to God the Father in the name of our Lord Jesus Christ.

We should thank God for every thing!! Are dog house ,a new shirt, and so on!!! Are you thankful all the time? Do you thank God for every thing!? Have you ever bought something for someone and they weren't thankful at all? You feel mad and that you shouldn't ha v e gone through all that trouble for them! Well, that's how God feels when we don't thank him for every little thing! Like a new shirt! He let you buy that! Or a sewing machine.

1 Thessalonians 5:18

18 give thanks in all circumstances; for this is the will of God in Christ Jesus for you.

Give God praise and the glory for every thing!!!!!!!!! Not just, I'm thankful for my family. I thank you God for letting me have this for let me talk to that person. We should even thank God for the hard times we have!! We learn from them! So don't just be thankful this thanksgiving, be truly THANKFUL for what he has done!!

Psalm 30:12

12 that my glory may sing your praise and not be silent.

    O Lord my God, I will give thanks to you forever!    

What not to when your hunting! :)

My mom and I went out to the end of are drive way and turned into the field. My dad made a home made deer stand out of a valuable and road fabric. So we climb up in it and sat down. After a hour or so I became bird. Really bored. I was all so tired, so I makes my head down on my gun. My mouth was touching   my scope just a little. So when I lifted my head part of my lip was stuck to my scope! :)  So I licked my lips and my  lip was free!!! When it happened again,( Not on purpose though!!) So I tried wetting my lips with my tongue ,well what do you think happened? Yep my tongue was stuck to my scope. So I'm sitting there with my tongue stuck to my scope trying  to decide whether I should tell mom so she could help rip my tongue off my scope. Finally I just ripped it off. After my tongue felt weird, almost nine. So when we were heading back to the house I told her my stories, like I expected she laughed, she laughed HARD! So I just wanted to tell you that stories so you can warning to  get  your tongue stuck and have  a good laugh! :)        

Hello!! I'm so  sorry that I haven't wrote any thing for the past month or so! We have been hunting and are computer kept freezing up! But! I have a TON of things I want to write about so let's get started!!

The perfect pie crust!!
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
1 cup flour
1/2 tsp. Salt
1/3 cup shorting,lard,or coconut oil.( I use the coconut oil)
2- 2 1/2 Tbsp. Ice water
Sift flour and salt in a mixing bowl. Sprinkle water on the mixing flour and salt. Do the same with the shorting. 
Once mixed In a ball,spread it in your pie pan,and there! The perfect pie crust! 

The  perfect pumpkin pie!
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
2Tbsp.Butter
1 1/2 cups pumpkin.( I use fresh pumpkin, but canned will work too.)
1tsp. Cinnamon
1/4 tsp. Nutmeg
1/4 tsp  All spice
1/2 tsp. Salt
2eggs beaten
1/2cup sugar
1/2 cup. Brown sugar or Honey.(I prefer honey.) :) 
2Tbsp. Flour.
1cup milk.
Oh if you have pumpkin spice use 2 tsp. Instead of using the spices in the recipe.
Melt butter and mix it with the pumpkin. Add spices and salt. Beat eggs and stir into the sugars which have been mixed with flour. Add to pumpkin mixture and stir well.Add cup of milk and stir again. Then pour it in to your pie pan. (With the crust if course!) And bake for a hour on 375° . 
Well I think that's all for the pie! :) 

Holey socks, Headbands , and Squash.

Hello!!! ;) Today I'll talk about a few crafts!And how to make VERY good squash!


Sock hair bands!!!!
If you have a holey sock cut the top off,the part that has elastic in it.
Then you can decorate it with fabric markers, buttons, ribbon and so on.
Then use it! It works REALLY nicely!!! ;)
When you decorate it with buttons and ribbons,make sure you
sew them on! Then they will stay on! :)

Headbands!
++++++++
What you'll need: Scissors,Elastic,Fabric,a Sewing machine or a needle and thread.

Measure your head,(So you'll know how long your piece of elastic should be.)
Then mark where you should cut on your elastic, find colorful fabric and fold the fabric over the
elastic,and sew! Sew the fabric on the elastic.
Then sew the elastic ends together,then decorate! 

Now how to make the best squash EVER! ;)
===============================
Cut a ripe squash in half,and gut it out.
Then put some water on a cookie sheet,
and put your squash on the cookie sheet.
Turn your oven to 350 or 400 degrees.
Bake for an hour or more!
 Put butter,salt,and pepper in it after it's done,and

ENJOY!!!!! :)

So NO sharing! ;)lol! Joking!

You better share!

Now Let's talk about that little black book that people carry to church. 

Q. Why do people even have that little black book!?

A. Well That little black book contains a lot more then just a bunch of words! The Bible is like a history book! It have a bunch of events that happened from beginning to end! And I mean end of this earth!! There is stories about Jesus and how God made this earth!

 Your probably wondering a few things like, how does this God know when the earth will end, and how did he make that universe?  And what about evolution!? Well Let's start from the beginning. 

In Genesis chapter 1 Verse 1 it says.

"In the beginning God created the heavens and the earth."

Ok so we got so far is that God created the heavens and the earth right?

Well just keep reading and you'll see that there is NO big bang in it.

Ps the 1. thing means that verse one and 2. verse two and so on.

Genesis 1:1-5

1.In the beginning God created the heavens and the earth

2.And the earth was with out form, and void;and darkness was upon the

face of the deep.And the spirit of God moved upon the face of the waters.

3.And God said, Let there be light; and there was light.

4. And God saw the light,that it was good;and God divided the light from 

the darkness.

5.And God called the light day, and the darkness he called Night. And

the evening and the morning were the first day.

  

As you have read there is NO little things that formed the light and the darkness.

Or the heaven and earth. Now back to the Bible! ;)

6 And God said, Let there be a firmament in the midst of the waters, and let it divide the waters from the waters.

7 And God made the firmament, and divided the waters which were under the firmament from the waters which were above the firmament: and it was so.

8 And God called the firmament Heaven. And the evening and the morning were the second day.

9 And God said, Let the waters under the heaven be gathered together unto one place, and let the dry land appear: and it was so.

10 And God called the dry land Earth; and the gathering together of the waters called he Seas: and God saw that it was good.

11 And God said, Let the earth bring forth grass, the herb yielding seed, and the fruit tree yielding fruit after his kind, whose seed is in itself, upon the earth: and it was so.

12 And the earth brought forth grass, and herb yielding seed after his kind, and the tree yielding fruit, whose seed was in itself, after his kind: and God saw that it was good.

13 And the evening and the morning were the third day.

14 And God said, Let there be lights in the firmament of the heaven to divide the day from the night; and let them be for signs, and for seasons, and for days, and years:

15 And let them be for lights in the firmament of the heaven to give light upon the earth: and it was so.

16 And God made two great lights; the greater light to rule the day, and the lesser light to rule the night: he made the stars also.

17 And God set them in the firmament of the heaven to give light upon the earth,

18 And to rule over the day and over the night, and to divide the light from the darkness: and God saw that it was good.

19 And the evening and the morning were the fourth day.

20 And God said, Let the waters bring forth abundantly the moving creature that hath life, and fowl that may fly above the earth in the open firmament of heaven.

21 And God created great whales, and every living creature that moveth, which the waters brought forth abundantly, after their kind, and every winged fowl after his kind: and God saw that it was good.

22 And God blessed them, saying, Be fruitful, and multiply, and fill the waters in the seas, and let fowl multiply in the earth.

23 And the evening and the morning were the fifth day.

24 And God said, Let the earth bring forth the living creature after his kind, cattle, and creeping thing, and beast of the earth after his kind: and it was so.

25 And God made the beast of the earth after his kind, and cattle after their kind, and every thing that creepeth upon the earth after his kind: and God saw that it was good.

26 And God said, Let us make man in our image, after our likeness: and let them have dominion over the fish of the sea, and over the fowl of the air, and over the cattle, and over all the earth, and over every creeping thing that creepeth upon the earth.

27 So God created man in his own image, in the image of God created he him; male and female created he them.

28 And God blessed them, and God said unto them, Be fruitful, and multiply, and replenish the earth, and subdue it: and have dominion over the fish of the sea, and over the fowl of the air, and over every living thing that moveth upon the earth.

29 And God said, Behold, I have given you every herb bearing seed, which is upon the face of all the earth, and every tree, in the which is the fruit of a tree yielding seed; to you it shall be for meat.

30 And to every beast of the earth, and to every fowl of the air, and to every thing that creepeth upon the earth, wherein there is life, I have given every green herb for meat: and it was so.

31 And God saw every thing that he had made, and, behold, it was very good. And the evening and the morning were the sixth day.

So In this chapter did you read any thing that has evolution in it? NO!!! God made this world and he made us! (Which I'll be talking about in few days! ;) 

God loves us! That's why he made us!Because he wanted some one to love him back! Well bye for now!

So Chow for now! ;)

Howdy!!! It's me again! ;) Yesterday I said I would tell you about my horse Stardust the skirt eater right? Right, Well Stardust was born on our farm. So she was(and still is) VERY friendly ,I mean VERY friendly!! ;)When ever she got out you couldn't lead her because she wasn't trained right then.So you had to walk out side pet her open a gate and walk with her. She would walk RIGHT behind you, right on your heals!! It's true that was the only way to get her in to the pen! So then I finally got her use to the halter and lead rope,and she grew bigger and bigger. Ok, so lets go two years forward, One day we were having some friends over.(These friends wanted to ride horses, but it just didn't work out.) They wear skirts all the time, so we went out to see Stardust.We walked over to her,(and I'm bursting with pride! ;) we started petting her and I was telling them all about her. When it happened Stardust reached out her neck and grabbed a hold of Victoria's skirt! So I slapped Star's nose and my pride's bubble just popped. ;) lol! That happens when you are too prideful! So now she three years old, and I trained her to ride! But she doesn't really like other people but me on her back! lol! ;)

 This is my horse Stardust!! 

 THIS IS Rosebud! ;)  

So bye Ya'll!!! 

Hi! I'm Grace Johnston and I'm 13 years old. I live on a VERY small dairy farm and have 5 horses (which I love horses by the way!) ;) We have some beef cattle,chickens,dairy cows (of course! ;) ,a donkey, 3 cats and 2 dogs. I think that covers all of the animals!!! ;) On my blog I'll be writing about life on the farm, homeschooling,and cooking! Oh I forgot to say that I'm a Christian and also home schooled.I'll also be posting verses and Bible studies.

I have a calf named Rosebud. Correction-a heifer that's about to calf!Rosebud is my cow and she's a milk cow, she's about to calf soon!!! It's her first time calving so when the calf is born I'll post pictures!! ;) I bought  Rosebud from one of my friends, Grace. Rosebud was only about a week or two old when I got her, personally, I wanted a different calf but my dad wanted Rosebud, so we got her. Which I'm glad! But Grace my friend was telling me about this one that was soooooooooooo cute! But hey, fathers knows best, because I'm soooo glad that I got Rosebud! Well any ways, it was hard taking care of her because I had to feed Rosebud like every hour!!!! (Not really, only morning,noon,and night.) But it was hard work! She would head butt you right in the stomach!!!! Not on purpose, but just because of her in-stinks. So after long tired months of feeding her her bottles of warm milk. We weaned her off of milk,so I started to train her! ;) I even rode her! But she didn't move, it was more like sitting on her! lol! So to make a long story short, I tried to train her to lead, but you can't even push her! ;) She doesn't like to move! So any ways she's three years old and eats like a pig. Oh, I forgot one more thing watch out! She'll eat any thing she see's! Ask my friend Bethany, Rosebud tried to eat her jacket! ;)
UnTill next time you can hear about my horse Stardust ,the skirt eater!!! lol! ;)
