Vintage Friday

Today's Vintage Friday is me! I am turning into my grandma. Earlier today I had a doctor's appointment and was diagnosed with bursitis (tendinitis) in my knee. A while ago I was told I had rheumatism (rheumatoid arthritis) in my hand. I can remember Little complaining about both of these. "Oh, my rheumatism is really acting up!" she'd say. Or, "oh my bursitis is bad today." It's bad enough when you turn into your mother, but your grandma too!

Moody Cook Out

This weekend Bryce invited a group of guys from his floor over for a cook out. Fifteen guys showed up for the all day party. The first group showed up at 11:30 and the last guy left at 9:00p. The ate, played football, ate, watched a movie, ate, built a fire, ate again, made smores, and finally finished eating. They kept telling us how happy they were to be away from the city ( and I think college food). It was our pleasure to host these young  men for the day.

Bella, where are you going?

LORD, Thank You for the gift of HOPE You gave us on Easter morning. Because of You we know That no problem is too difficult And even death does not have power over us.

Thank you for the gift of LOVE You gave us when You laid down Your life. Because of You we know That there is no sin too great to separate us and we are incredibly valuable to You.

Thank You for the gift of LIFE, You gave us when You left the tomb. Because of Easter we know this world is just the beginning and we will spend forever in heaven with You.

We celebrate You, JESUS, With hearts full of praise and gratitude For who You are and all You've done for us! Amen.
