As a family we reflect on the beauty that unfolded this past weekend for the 5th Annual Backwoods Bluegrass Fay Fest 2025!
Firstly all Glory to God for the moments which turn to memories that last a life time. The skies proclaim the works of His Hands ☀️

Psalms 147:3-7
[3] He heals the brokenhearted and bandages their wounds. [4] He counts the stars and calls them all by name. [5] How great is our Lord! His power is absolute! His understanding is beyond comprehension! [6] The Lord supports the humble, but he brings the wicked down into the dust. [7] Sing out your thanks to the Lord; sing praises to our God with a harp.
