Fort Leighty: Gardening and Landscaping

Gardening and Landscaping

With owning a house now, we have many projects to do outside. We did plant a garden with Kelli's parents and then did a little bit of landscaping around our house. More to come in the future. It's all rather overwhelming starting from scratch, but it is also fun to see everything take shape, grow, and blossom.

Hostas leading up to the front porch

Boxwoods, a Burning Bush, a Dwarf Lilac bush, and some lilies to cover up the mechanicals

Our family’s mission

As a family centered in Christ, we will be steadfast in carrying out our mission to bear the fruit of the Spirit.

Loving one another as a brother and sister in Christ

Encouraging and lifting others up

Improving ourselves in mind, body, and spirit

Graciously showing kindness and compassion

Humbly forgiving those who have done wrong

Taking time together with family

Yearning to be like Christ in all we say, think, and do

But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness, self-control; against such things there is no law. Galatians 5:22-23

Philippians, Chapter 4 (ESV)

4 Rejoice in the Lord always; again I will say, Rejoice. 5 Let your reasonableness be known to everyone. The Lord is at hand; 6 do not be anxious about anything, but in everything by prayer and supplication with thanksgiving let your requests be made known to God. 7 And the peace of God, which surpasses all understanding, will guard your hearts and your minds in Christ Jesus. 8 Finally, brothers, whatever is true, whatever is honorable, whatever is just, whatever is pure, whatever is lovely, whatever is commendable, if there is any excellence, if there is anything worthy of praise, think about these things. 9 What you have learned and received and heard and seen in me—practice these things, and the God of peace will be with you.
