Loving Nature: Clouds

The sky was crazy angry a few days ago. We didn't even get a storm...just a couple of short showers.

Quotes

Nature is my medicine. ~Sara Moss-Wolfe
The sky is the daily bread of the eyes. ~Ralph Waldo Emerson

Hello from Heaven

Birds, flowers, stars, trees, snowflakes, frogs, bugs, raindrops...what blessings we get to experience. We are the Sheafer's and we love nature.

We are a homeschool family of eight. We enjoy letterboxing, geocaching, fishing, hiking, thunderstorms, star gazing, gardening, playing in the water, and most anything that nature offers.

One thing we love most, is bird watching. We have multiple feeders and we often go for drives just to find a 'new' bird. The birds are a rainbow in the snow and a hello from heaven.

This blog is all about our nature experiences...the moments when we heard "hello."
