  • Our week started out with our girls planning to go on a camping trip. we spent hours making and packing food as well as packing our clothes and anything that we need, we even had to bleach our kayaks (something to do with contamination).
    we were and hour away from leaving when we got the news....
    life threw us for a loop, we didn't see it coming that soon but, I guess thats life we never know what will really happen.

    I prefer swimming in shorts and a tank top. It’s much more comfortable. I think you should put together a recipe book of all the foods you show us on your videos. They look very good. Great video!

    You took that disappointing turn of events in the most inspiring way! You are so right we are not in control of what life has in store for us. We are only in control of how we choose to handle it.

    I’m sorry for your loss, Giselle. I am impressed with how well you handle loss and disappointment (canceled trip). In thinking on it, I realize knowing that God is in control, eliminates all emotion on your part; only acceptance. ❤️

    I'm very sorry for your community's loss, but your quiet acceptance of the change in plans is a wonderful witness to anyone who sees this video.
    Whenever I'm out in the garden now I think about you. I was picking Blackberries in the side yard yesterday, and I thought, "I wonder what Giselle and her Sisters are doing right now,...". I like to use those times alone in the garden to pray for people I know and people I don't. You all are in my prayers often.

    Your summer work is in full swing, you would have enjoyed a break. But it is nice you all pay your respects together, maybe you go camping another time. Our local swimming pool is closed. Seems to be popular with your youngsters. Only women in your choir this week. It is nice when you can give freely and not count the cost. Good video.

It has been so many years, since I went. Oh I am so sorry for the loss of one of your ladies! And even though it saddens me it made my heart swell with love over your sentiment acknowledging Gods plans above all others. You all are amazing and true blessings!

    Our local Mennonite community has a terrible loss this last week. A family lost their 2 sons and their daughters was injured in a farming accident. The week before this family lost a cousin in a plane crash on their way to a mission trip. Their community is usually quite private but have allowed us to host a benefit for them. My heart breaks for their loss.
