Praising the Lord, all the days of my life.....

Well well well, look who hasn't been blogging enough! It seems like every time I start a new post, someone says "Hannah, I need help with this!" or "We have to go do something outside." then before you know it, I forget to finish the post. But, not today! Since I have finished all that has to be done outside for the evening, and I  have some time before supper, I decided I needed to get back on here. 
Updates, updates....... 

Our whole family has been very busy this fall: 
Papa and the boys have had a couple of small jobs here and there, and quite a few of roofing projects, (and we all know how much Leif loves roofing.... no really, he doesn't....). We are very thankful that papa has work here and there, even if it just gives us enough to get by. 
Seth has planted a few winter crops, and hallelujah! They are coming up GREAT! Just yesterday, seth picked all of our corn field, with his new corn picker. 
Leif is busy doing school, working with papa sometimes, and assisting anyone that needs help. 
Mama's doing a wonderful job being a mother, and wife. She has tried out a few recipe's this fall, and most of them are delicious, but there have been a few meals that there's been "enough food for leftovers tomorrow!". We love her joy to try new things.... 
Me: 
I've been busy with school, my advanced piano lesson each week, baby sitting, riding, and I have even taken up running this fall! Lots of baby animals here on the farm keeps me busy as well.... The Lord has been teaching me a lot lately, patience for my future that He has planned for me, reading my Bible and praying a lot more, and being content with where I am at in life right now. I think it's natural in your late teens to be restless, and that's one thing that I have learned the most, is that He DOES have everything worked out, if I'm going to the Torchbearer's school in Austria, if I do go to college, where I will end up living, so on and so forth... :) I'm SO thankful to have a Savior that loves me so much, that I don't have to worry, because He has me safely in the palm of His hand. I am at peace with all that the future has in store for me, because I know that His way, is the only way.
