More Than A Song

I have a couple of things to ask and hope I can get some help from my friends! 1. There are some couples that we like to give gifts to as a couple but I always struggle with what to do…….I’ve done food type things and am looking for something else or slightly different. So […]

It was a beautiful weekend here, perfect weather so hubby and his friend chased that elusive golf ball both days! I sewed on Saturday while they played in a tournament all day, a benefit with the money going to the cancer society. Sunday after church the girls rode with them so our friends could take […]

We gave a dinner party over the weekend for a friend getting married soon and a marriage blessing was part of it as well. It’s a time we set aside to give a charge to the couple to remain faithful and committed to each other and to pray for them and ask God’s blessing on […]

“There’ll be only happy tears..” This last week or two we’ve had several funerals to attend. One of our friends lost his father, but he’s lived a long life and they’ve rejoiced because he came to know the Lord in the last few years. Another good friend lost their grown son when he took his […]

“you put your right foot out” I saw the sun yesterday for the first time in a week I think, it was SO nice! But it was too good to last I suppose because today it’s raining again and I’m so tired of rain/clouds. I’ve basically got nothing that’s coming to mind, so I’m resorting […]

This past weekend we had a big community wide function at our church, a back to school rally or blast. It lasted most of Friday afternoon/evening and all day Saturday; we got through around 8ish that night. We fed the kids & youth several times, had games & activities along with worship times too. I […]

We had a very busy fun filled weekend! I’m a bit tired but still have tons to do yet. Friday evening we had friends over for burgers with all the trimmings, ice cream and a movie afterward. We watched Letters From Iwo Jima…..it’s similar to the story of Flags of Our Fathers but told from […]

Update: On my way to see my daughter I stopped to meet……Coach J! SO much fun! More later and hopefully a picture but I don’t have my cord with me to transfer from camera to laptop. I’m going to help daughter E move from one house to a different one before school starts back up […]

I hope everyone had a wonderful holiday yesterday….it was a nice little break for us! We went down to our friend’s house in the early afternoon, there were 6 of us adults and one was babysitting their little grandson. One grilled some meat and did pasta salad, I made crunchy slaw and squash casserole and […]

Our bible school ended at noon each day this week and then afterward a group of us got together to eat lunch……every. single. day! One of my friends had a 3 year old grandson with her and it sorta kept him entertained some by eating out. We went to Wendy’s and the Pizza Hut buffet […]

And plenty to drink! Our town has a festival in June, blues music mostly but it’s not something we ever really attend. The temperature in the South is about 105 in June and not pleasant for being outdoors, well for me anyway! Last year our church decided to do a project when the concerts are […]

On Saturday I went to an out of town wedding with my hubby and several couple friends. The bride is a high school friend of one of my daughters and her parents are some of our church friends. Six of us piled in my suburban and the other couple had to leave a bit later […]

This past Saturday we helped host a marriage blessing/dinner party for the daughter of one of our friends. We met, planned, invited, prepared, cooked; about an hour before the party started, the worst thunderstorms came through and dropped bucket loads of rain! We were under a tornado warning and found out later that some places […]
