Praying for You Uncle Roy

Roy and Garene here at the zoo in 2007

Uncle Roy had a heart attack! Wow! Please pray for my sweet uncle as tomorrow morning they take him by ambulance to Bismark to have what may be a double by-pass! WOW!

O Father, the Great Healer, keep him in Your care.

Giving the doctors the wisdom needed to help him recover.

In Your perfect will.

Let the Games Begin

After a week with a tea party and a baby shower, it's time to buckle down and get organized. All I did was clean and tidy this week. Of course I left my camera at the shower last night, so the point and shoot will have to do.This book case above was at the top of the stairs, now it's at the bottom. One less thing to move when recarpeting. I kind of like it here. This used to be a little reading nook anyway, it might stay there. I think the only furniture I continue to justify buying,is book shelves. I don't think you can have too many books. They're a treasure for the heart, mind and soul.

This bookcase also will have to go. We have WAY too many DVDs. (this isn't even close to all of them, they seem to be in every room. I think they're breeding.)

This is my desk in the boys' room, aka; the home school room. It just collects things there. All the upstairs furniture will have to go in here to recarpet. So this is my battle ground this weekend. Stay tuned, more fun to come...

Keepers Tea Party

It was our last Keepers meeting until the fall. We hosted a tea party and scrapbooked some Keepers pages.

It was a lovely time, the girls came dressed for the occasion. So sweet. My eldest daughter even served the girls so I could have some chat time with the moms. The girls had her hoppin'. Vanilla tea, black currant tea, scones, quiches, cookies, tarts, etc. Yummmm.

I didn't even take a tea picture, maybe Dawn or Susan has one I will add later.

Fun Singing

These kids blessed my socks off this week. And last night we sang for 1/2 hour after the Bible school/music camp program. The parents were so supportive and grateful too. Love you guys!!!

My fiddlin' girl, except she played "Humble Thyself"! And her new Takamine guitar. What a blessing! Cowboy hat? Don't know whose that is.

Music Camp week

Tomorrow is the last day of music camp at our church. I didn't think it would be so much fun. I have 20 kids that like to sing!! What a blessing.

Here's a blog set up so you can read more about our week. More to come tomorrow.
