Happy Christmas 2015...

To all our friends, family, and blog readers: We hope that you had a wonderful Christmas and have a blessed 2016. As you can see from the picture, we've been blessed with a new addition! :) But more on Riaan's arrival in the next few posts. Thanks for reading our news. Much love and God bless, Murray, Candace, Riaan and Rusty. :)

Icy morning...

An early December frosty morning in Daviess County, Indiana. The fog and frost combined to create a rather spooky atmosphere. It's lovely weather to walk in and appreciate the beauty in the icy details. :)

 View looking east along the gravel road.

 Frozen letter box.

 Tiny shards of ice.

 Icy leaf.

 Frosty blades of grass.

 A dandelion hiding beneath a layer of ice.

 Spooky atmosphere.

View across the pond.

Spotted Lady Beetles...

I came across this cluster of spotted lady beetles while walking Rusty the other day. I've never seen so many together at once!

Candace's Baby Shower...

Candace's baby shower was held at the Bethel Church Hall on Saturday, 7th November. She really appreciated those who came and showed their support and encouragement to her. Here are a few photos from this event - photos thanks to Candace's mom, Lavone.

Pretty skies...

Some more pretty skies to start off the month of December!
