Trimming and Memories

I hope you had a wonderful Thanksgiving holiday. It was nice to have a little downtime and not have an actual schedule to follow, (outside of Thanksgiving morning that is). I can’t believe we’ve finished Thanksgiving and are already looking at Christmas in a few weeks. My husband and I were looking at the December…

Thanksgiving & Prayer

Happy Thanksgiving my friends. I lift prayers for you all today that you may have a day filled with family and friends. A day filled with love, laughter, and a connection to Father. I’m posting here the prayer I gave last Thanksgiving. I’m thinking this will be an annual prayer that I post, it’s so…

Giving Thanks – Always

Last night on the way home from work, we stopped at the beach to watch the sunset. I have to admit it was a beautiful evening, with very little wind, and the beach, surprisingly was not that crowded. There were groups of friends who, like us had come down just to watch the sun set…

What’s Your Favorite

I mentioned yesterday the plans we have for Thanksgiving. We’re making lunch for kids at Youth Haven, a shelter for abused kids and teens. Part of the process is making sure we bring food that the kids like. We make lists of what worked well last year and tweak each year. Of course, we have…

Simple Love

Part of my role at work is to help new couples with their wedding ceremonies. It’s been fun participating in this as I get to see all the different kinds of weddings. Some are very large, with black tie required, others are very simple, literally just the bride and groom and their parents. Some want…

Say I Love You – Make Breakfast

Just a fun little blog this morning. It’s my husband’s birthday and instead of taking him out for breakfast, I’m treating him to homemade. With us working outside of the home again, and our crazy schedules lately, we haven’t had an opportunity to do breakfast at home for a long time. Well, today is the…

Yesterday as I was working it hit me that Thanksgiving is just a week away. Where in the world is the time going these days I ask in unbelief! In thinking about what is truly one of my favorite holidays, I found myself walking through memories of past Thanksgivings. I think I’ve mentioned here before…

Just Ask

I can’t believe how quickly this week has been flying by. It’s been silly busy, well I’m guessing you all are thinking, “Every week is busy”, these days. It just seems like the older we get, the faster time goes. I’ll leave that topic for another little blog. My week has been busy because one…

Gotta Keep it Separate

Sometimes it’s not easy to leave work “at the office”. It’s even more difficult when you work with your spouse. My husband and I work together at our church, and it’s been an adjustment. We’ve actually come full circle, you see my husband and I met almost 40 years ago when we were both working…

A Tuna Sandwich

Great title for this little blog today eh? As I often do these days, I forgot to take something out for dinner yesterday. So, when we got home I was pondering the options. There were a couple of things I could have put together, but when I mentioned making “tuna grinders”, oh my husband piped…
