I lift my eyes to the hills, where does my help come from? My help comes from The Lord, the Maker of Heaven and Earth-Psalms 121:1-2





When it all began...

Life on a red dirt road began for Martin on October 17, 1980, the day he was born. For me it began on July 17, 2004, the day we were married. Although it's a bit dusty, it's full of blessings.

A Little Piece of Heaven on the Red Dirt Road

When Martin and I married in July of 2004, we were able to purchase and pay cash for a small mobile home which we parked next door to his parents here at the end of dirt road. We painted the rooms, layed new floors, and fixed it up. From the beginning our plan was to live here for a few years and then build a house somewhere. But Martin's dream was to never move away from this place he calls home. A few years ago we began saving to purchase the land adjacent to Martin's parents home. In November we became the proud owners of 23 acres of timber land. We're tree farmers now, lol. The time isn't right to build our "dream" home, so in order to make room for Aubrey and to have a more comfortable living space, we added on a room to our little home. Now this is a not a room that most women would go for, but I love it.

"The Camo Room"



This room allowed me to store my books,



Created more pantry room,



And gave us a place for our hunting "gear"



Our little house is not grand,and it's sure not fancy, but it's ours and we thank The Lord for it everyday.

Ephesians 5:20
Always giving thanks to God the Father for everything
