Today I am thankful for a lot and even though sometimes I complain that I don't have anything to do. I am still thankful that I have been blessed with so much time and opportunity to explore, make memories, and relax before this semester gets extremely crazy and stressful. Today Mary took us to an auction and wow.. was it mind blowing.. There was so much stuff and it was all so cheap. I think Mary ended up bringing an entire van load of things home and only spent 9 dollars. What crazy! It did, however, make me thankful for my family. The items that I have received from my grandparents are so precious to me and they have a story. That's what makes these things special, the memories behind them. And that's worth more than any price offered. I did find a lot of beautiful things though.
books. old, beautiful, classic books.
if I hadn't already received a sewing machine from my gram i seriously would have considered bidding on this one.
On the way home from the auction, Brently and I stopped by this farm to take in the breathtaking landscape, and to buy some local vegetables and honey :)
enough said..
Bridgewater is growing on me. It has a lot to offer and a story of its own. The lifestyle here is simple, and everyone is seriously the nicest. People are willing to stop and talk to you and help you in anyway possible, the best. Today I am thankful.
