Mi Vida Loca.....

Yep. This about sums it up.

Life has been fast, crazy, and messy at times.

I was on the phone with Jason for 30 seconds yesterday and when I hung up the phone, this is what I found waiting for me. Busted!

Those are indeed Lay's Sour Cream & Onion potato chips- only the best chips ever made! Don't be a hater. We had family night and cooked chili dogs by the fire. Absolutely nothing goes better with a chili dog, than Lay's Sour Cream & Onion potato chips.

Do you see that drawer in the background open? That would be the snack drawer- the drawer of death! After this incident, I'm not down with the snack drawer anymore. It has got to go!

I've been awfully quiet here lately. I have so many things going through my head right now that I'm trying to process. The Lord is showing me some not-so-pretty things within me that- just like the snack drawer- have got to go. I'm learning so much about my daily attitude and perception of life's happenings. Its a good thing I'm making progress. I was able to laugh my head off at the above incident instead of roll my eyes and dread another mess to clean up.

Another biggy I'm trying to process is the election. I really wasn't in shock that Obama won. I sort of expected it. Let's be honest, it was seriously one of the worst years for anyone other than a Democrat to be running for President. I don't blame people for wanting things to change and be different. They will most certainly change and be different. But, scripture tells us not to worry in Matthew 6:25-34.

"Therefore I tell you, do not worry about your life, what you will eat or drink; or about your body, what you will wear. Is not life more important than food, and the body more important than clothes? Look at the birds of the air; they do not sow or reap or store away in barns, and yet your heavenly Father feeds them. Are you not much more valuable than they? Who of you by worrying can add a single hour to his life?

"And why do you worry about clothes? See how the lilies of the field grow. They do not labor or spin. Yet I tell you that not even Solomon in all his splendor was dressed like one of these. If that is how God clothes the grass of the field, which is here today and tomorrow is thrown into the fire, will he not much more clothe you, O you of little faith? So do not worry, saying, 'What shall we eat?' or 'What shall we drink?' or 'What shall we wear?' For the pagans run after all these things, and your heavenly Father knows that you need them. But seek first his kingdom and his righteousness, and all these things will be given to you as well. Therefore do not worry about tomorrow, for tomorrow will worry about itself. Each day has enough trouble of its own."

It also commands us to pray for our leaders of authority in 1 Timothy 2:1-4.

"I urge, then, first of all, that requests, prayers, intercession and thanksgiving be
made for everyone—for kings and all those in authority, that we may live peaceful and quiet lives in all godliness and holiness. This is good, and pleases God our Savior, who wants all men to be saved and to come to a knowledge of the truth."

So that's where I'm at with all of this. Life is full of uncertainties and messes. But, if we are children of the Most High God, we can rest with the assurance that He has our back.

Nothing surprises Him.

Nothing happens that He didn't allow to come to be through His sovereign plan.

And absolutely nothing can separate us from His love and grace.

Got Beef???

We are beyond thrilled to tell you that we have grass-fed beef available!

We got back our meat from the processor a few days ago and I can't quit eating it! We had steak the first night, roast the second night, and who knows what we will have tonight. But, you better believe it will be beef. Sorry- its whats for dinner.

We wanted to try it out and see how it tasted. I'm not just saying this, but it is the most flavorful beef that I've had. I'm picky when it comes to meat. The roast I cooked was the BEST roast I've ever made. And I didn't add anything but veggies, salt, pepper, and garlic.

So, don't just take my word for it. Go tell all of your friends that we FINALLY have beef available. Its going like hotcakes. We are already sold out of a few cuts of meat.

Another exciting thing happening is we are organizing groups that we will deliver to in The Woodlands and Katy areas. This will be a twice a month delivery at a pick-up location for two hours twice a month. We've had tons of interest in these two particular areas, so we are getting groups together there. If you are interested in a group in your area or The Woodlands or Katy, you can e-mail me at LynseyKramer@YonderWayFarm.com.
