2014 Harvest

October 10, 2014Farm, WorkThe Derksens

Levi has worked for a local farmer for the last few years during harvest. But, this year, since he got an accounting job in Saskatoon, he had to show Jesse what to do because he was only available to help on the weekends. For the first couple years, Levi drove a Cat tractor, but last year he got switched to a John Deere 9200.

Dumping on the go!

Dumping into the grain truck.

Levi drove the grain truck for some of the time, and here he is augering canola into the bins.

Praise God for the good 2014 harvest.

“While the earth remaineth, seedtime and harvest, and cold and heat,

and summer and winter, and day and night shall not cease.” Genesis 8:22

The Crooked Bush!

October 2, 2014Crooked Bush, FamilyMicahThe Derksens

In the past summer we had the opportunity to visit the crooked bush in the Hafford area, on the way home from a program. The trees appeared very interesting. There was another small bush right beside this crooked one, which had no crooked limbs even though they were the same type of trees.

A study has been done at the University of Saskatchewan, where they took from these trees and planted them at the University, and they still grow the same way.

This is a new song Mom wrote about the evidence for creation at Mt. St. Helen’s. It is a children’s sing-a-long to the tune of Swing Low, Sweet Chariot.

Christopher Lake…Our Uncle and Aunt’s Cabin

August 16, 2014Family, lakeThe Derksens

Last Sunday, after playing for a community service in Laird, our family packed up to go to the lake. Heidi had been unable to go with us on our trip to BC/Washington earlier this summer so this was to be our whole family together. Some of us stayed until Wednesday. Josh and Levi came back early Tuesday morning to work but at least our family was all together for a couple of days.

Some of the things we enjoyed doing were: water skiing, wakesurfing (you go right behind the boat), knee boarding, paddle boarding, attempting wakeboarding, fishing and, of course special family devotional times.
