Fall Blessings

Just a little testimony on how God TRULY does provide for the desires of our hearts.

I've been reading the local newspaper frequently over the last month and have seen a Harvest Festival advertised at Butler's Orchard - which is only like 10 mins from our house. It looked like so much fun and a great way to experience Maryland in the Fall - and maybe even a great
event to do with my dad while he was here visiting from CA. The thing was, it is only open on weekends, (Nate is usually studying and testing out on the weekends) and it would be $10 a ticket for ages 2 and over. So I pretty much scrapped that idea.

Sunday afternoon I got an email from Julie Purswell saying that someone from the church donated 8 tickets for any PC families wanting to go. There are 17 families in our class, so they were basically going to be distributed once she knew who was interested. I replied and said, if 3
tickest were available, we could swing $10 to go - PLUS they were open Monday for Columbus Day (they are usually closed Monday's which is our family day, so it has never been an option to go then) ... long story short, only 1 other family replied, so we got 4 tickets and all of us got to go and enjoy a very fall-ish day at Butler's Orchard, for free! Lord, you are SO good to us!

  1. Awww, too cute! Looks like you all had a great time :) How's the visit w/ your dad going? I think he's there through the 19th? Give him our love. We'll be heading back to GA the 22nd. It'll be nice to return to warmer weather..., maybe :)
