beautiful day........


So many days I drive through County Park to get to the many places that take me in that direction. I always think how nice it would be to walk through the park it's a beautiful place. Today I finally got to do that. Edwin and I and the youngest kids walked a nice two mile jaunt. I know it was 2 miles cause I had my handy dandy pedometer on me. It was just lovely. We saw 2 different times deer cross in front of us. The trees are all starting to bud and it won't be long to the leaves burst forth.
I also washed off my porch. Edwin brought out our lounge chair. So look for me if you go by you might see me there. And of course you can always stop in for a visit.
The first week of May I'll be going with the ladies in my family flower shopping. It's an all day affair. My mom takes her big van with a trailer on the back. Last year we had to come back to my mom's three times to unload the trailer. That's a lot of flowers.

His Forever........

Jesus, friend of sinners, loved me 'ere I knew Him
Drew me with His cords of love, tightly bound me to Him
Round my heart still closely twined, The ties that none can sever,
For I am His and He is mine forever and forever.

Faith....Wait.....Rejoice


Habakkuk 3

17 Though the fig tree does not bud
and there are no grapes on the vines,
though the olive crop fails
and the fields produce no food,
though there are no sheep in the pen
and no cattle in the stalls,

18 yet I will rejoice in the LORD,
I will be joyful in God my Savior.

Things to ponder:
What is your response to unfullfilled desires?

No matter what I get or don't get will I rejoice in the Lord?

Can I rest and rejoice in God alone?

Philippians 4:4
4Rejoice in the Lord always; again I will say, Rejoice.

Laura...Danielle.....????

Okay well how many doses do you need of "the miranda experience". Here I am listening to the demand for more "experience" and I'm going on my 3rd post and no sign of Laura Joy, or Danielle. What is up with that?

Yesterday was Bella's 11th birthday. For her birthday meal we had her favorites. Baked spaghetti, broccoli with cheese and garlic bread. Her birthday cake was cheese cake with cherry topping. Bella was very excited to find out she had gotten what she wanted most on her birthday and that was Heely's. Sneakers with one skate wheel on the back heel of the sneaker. Latest rage amongst kids. Bella loves Dolphins so Daddy got her a Dolphin balloon she named him Wally. After dinner and presents we went to Park City and there Bella tried out her Heely's. To bad there is so many grout tracks it made for a bumpy ride for her. Bella said she had the best day ever. That was nice to here cause it wasn't that we did something really spectacular for her birthday she just really appreciated what she got and enjoyed being together.
We love our Bella and we are so happy God blessed us with her.

The hunt........




We made it pretty easy for the little kiddo's to find the eggs. The bigger kids had a harder time. At the far end of the yard I saw a ruckus going on between the big kids. Someone got something just not sure what they got.

grand kids and great grand kids



Back by popular demand a new post. Hey it ain't easy being a blogger. Oh the pressure of it all.........=) Just kidding I like doing it when I got something to say.
This past Sunday we had an outstanding meal with my family at my sister Jane and her husband Paul's home. There was 32 of us. We also had our annual Easter egg hunt.
Here's some pictures of the happening.

Different subject now. What did you all think of this past Sunday's gospel Sunday.
Is this type of thing a blessing and encouragement? Or just something different?
I'd like to know your thoughts.
