Sky Top Orchard

Saturday we headed out to Henersonville to go apple picking at Sky Top Orchard.
If I didn't know better, I would have thought Eve was a Man!

The orchard was on top of a mountain with beautiful mountain views in almost every direction. Even Bently got to come and get all kinds of love and attention.

Gala apples were in season and just right for picking.


Sooo pretty and nice to be outside!

Who needs a ladder!?!?
They had every kind of apple.
Peaches and grapes too!
One of our baskets
They also had apple smoothies and warm apple donuts too! ;-)

Bagging the apples
1/2 a bushel of apples = $15!!!
Fresh air and sunshine = Free!
Beautiful mountain views = FREE!

Home Sweet Home... Maybe????



We made an offer on a house last week. It is a foreclosure that has had some new improvements to make it more appealing to buyers. We were the highest bidder until yesterday when a new (4th) offer came on the table. The bank is waiting to see their "highest and best" before getting back to us....

We are praying God would have our family in this house and would work out the details. Until then, we are just waiting on the Lord!

Ephesians 3:14-19

"For this reason I bow my knees to the Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, from whom the whole family in heaven and earth is named, that He would grant you, according to the riches of His glory, to be strengthened with might through His Spirit in the inner man, that Christ may dwell in your hearts through faith; that you, being rooted and grounded in love, may be able to comprehend with all the saints what is the width and length and depth and height - to know the love of Christ which passes knowledge; that you may be filled with all the fullness of God. Now to Him who is able to do exceedingly abundantly above all that we ask or think, according to the power that works in us, to Him be glory in the church by Christ Jesus to all generations, for ever and ever. Amen."
