Sunday morning worship was super at Element. The music, teaching and general fellowship will be greatly missed as Nancy and I will be absent until some time in November. We are making a wedding the end of July and Annsley's birthday bash in October but will return for the first couple weeks in November to our mountain cabin; as Nancy has retired from cooking. As a matter of fact tomorrow(Wednesday) will be her last fellowship meal at SFBC.I think its been close to 16 years that she has made this a part of her ministry. I will of course receive those daily blessings as I have been for nearly 30 years.
Sunday evening we celebrated a great meal of; brats, potato casserole, broccoli and a watercress salad with a strawberry angel food cake. All of us left with full tummy's and a great time of watching Ava and Annsley play with one another. Both little ones were tired and nearly asleep as they left the driveway for home. We have one more big family dinner on the 22nd as we will celebrate Amy's 26th birthday before heading north to the cool mountain air(47 this morning). We actually had a sun shower for about 10 minutes in Seminole. That has to be the first rain in months to fall on us.
Monday was much the same with; quiet time, Pickle ball, lunch with Amy and Ava and did I tell you the big news, Ava is potty training. She doing quite well at our house. I remember I was never so glad to not have to buy diapers. That was a big day in our house hold and probably about 25 extra bucks in our monthly budget. Monday after dinner Nancy and I went over to G/G's and Pap's to cut down a large limb that was hanging over into his yard and shrubs. After taking care of that chore(actually was a bigger job than I first anticipated) we headed back home to watch a little NHL(Caps beat the Penguins in OT , go 'Canes over the Bruins tonight).
Tuesday brought the usual quiet time , oatmeal breakfast and pickle ball. We only had a small group to start with as one of usual members failed to show. I first checked the obit's(he a little old) and then the police blotter(sometimes out of control) but failed to see his name listed so that was a good sign, then resolved to think he was tired of us whupping up on him. That should get him back in the AM. We surely missed our South Carolina players who spent an entire week of their morning's playing pickle ball with our group. Both Ken and Lynn are super players and great people. Thanks to you guys for bringing spirited play amongst us. Looking forward to seeing you all next year.
Well will close for now but its down right HOT and MUGGY here in Seminole.LATER
