You are worthy, O Lord,
To receive glory and honor and power;
For You created all things,
And by Your will they exist and were created.

-Revelation 4:11

Welcome to my blog and thanks for visiting! I grew up in the quaint city of Athens, AL. As a child, visiting the farm of my grandparents always elicited a peaceful, happy feeling for me. I acquired a fascination with the beauty of the simple things in the country and the great outdoors. One of my childhood dreams was to grow up and someday live in the country and raise a family there.

Frugal Outdoor Summer Fun

For this week, I thought that I would mention some fun outdoor ideas for you to consider. For many of us being in school puts a damper on the financial budget. Therefore, I am going to suggest some activities that are fun and entertaining, yet low cost. The first activity that I thought about is going to an outdoor movie or play. Almost every town has at least a few of these events each summer. Check your local newspaper or online resources to find an event near you. Although they are usually free of charge, they are a great time to watch the sun go down and enjoy some quality time with your friends and family. Take your own blanket or chairs, along with some snacks, and enjoy a relaxing evening in the great outdoors!!

    I remember doing that in Slidell, La. They had summer night concerts in Old Towne, first they had them in the town square park, and then moved them to Heritage Park right outside of Old Towne, that the community helped build. The children in the community gave the suggestions to the architects, which were used in the designing process. It was fun being outside listening to the music, and meeting friends and neighbors there. One sunday afternoon, my husband played with his band, and my kids loved to see their daddy performing.
