Acting out Bible Time

This morning after Bible Time the kids wanted to use their little people to act out I Kings 18. Here Elijah (the blond in orange camels skin) comes to Obadiah (Ahab's servant who feared the Lord).

I Kings 18

Then Elijah said to all the people "Come near to me." So all the people came near to him. And he repaired the altar of the Lord which had been torn down. Elijah took twelve stones according to the number

More New Furniture

And here is our new/used $25 La Z Boy recliner! We have had our "Green Rocker" so long the kids want to call this one the "Green Rocker". "Tan Rocker" just doesn't sound right. Maybe we will call it the "Ungreen Rocker". Who knows :-)

Great Friends, Wonderful Fellowship

We enjoyed an awesome visit with Bill, Fran and the kids. Bill, Fran and Gracie stayed here while the older two stayed with different friends. Monday nights surprise party for Frank was a huge success. I regret not being there as Mary Elisabeth was sick. Josh spent last night here so the whole family could make an early departure. Dennis dropped Elizabeth off and they departed this AM at 5:30. Abigail didn't know what to do with herself without Gracie here to play with. Our great friend Angela is moving so she and her sisters as well as her mom came for lunch this afternoon. Then the girls stayed and babysat one last time so Drew and I could have a date. We managed to enjoy our outing to Penara for tea and scones. I headed to their house for a little packing around 9:30PM, after the troops were settled. I enjoyed Patty and the girls fellowship as we moved mattresses and packed pictures. Their family has been such an encouragement to me. After a MOST EXCELLENT day I am heading to bed (or tomorrow may not be so good) Good Night one and ALL.

Jacob's Poems

Less than Half an Hour
A horse ran into the sea more than half an hour.
Little Fonder ran after the draft
more than half an hour.
Billy boy ran after the draft less than half an hour.
Caught them all and brought them back more than ONE HOUR.

Billy Boy dies for Sun Rise
Sun shine rise Billy boy dies for sun rise; dear Fonder cries and Billy boy digs his grave. He hops right in says good bye everyone buries dear Billy.
