More Sunday fun!

At the table enjoying one of my favorite meals was: (from the left) Samantha (our daughter), Michelle & Amanda (Shirley's girls), Shirley, Izaac and Alex at the head of the table (our son). Hot beef sandwiches! Now my mom says she thinks she should make these more often because they're not as much work as some meals, and they went over BIG!

This is cute of Marty 'posing' for John trying to be the photographer yesterday (for me). That's Uncle Charlie to the left of Marty. At least we caught him smiling in one picture!!

Sunday Birthday party in Des Moines


I apparently had a little 'ick' bug that started with just a tummy ache the other night, but got worse yesterday. I feel better today, but not brave enough to get in the 'big red truck' for a 70 minute drive to our (both John's and mine) birthday party in Des Moines a my mom's. So John and Izaac travelled without me.

This is a 31 second video of Izaac and Marty (Samantha's 'honey') playing ball on the driveway today. John used my new camera for the first time, so the pictures were interesting, but I'm glad he took them so I could see how much fun I missed!

Sunday Senior Supper a Success!

I wonder if that title qualifies as a 'tongue-twister'??

These folks are the 'senior' generation in our church. For several years a group of the 'next senior' generation have hosted a dinner and entertainment (a movie usually) to say "Thank you" for ALL they have done for the church, and in the church. They deserve much more than a dinner, but it's a start.

The group enjoyed Ham, scalloped potatoes, green beans, rolls, jello salad and 'Angel'-food cake (for all those Angels who came) with fresh strawberries and whipped cream for dessert! A couple of dvd's were then shown with pictures from past church functions, parties, confirmations and talent shows.

I'm not in the group that planned (or cooked) for the event, but went to help set up and do dishes. We had BUNCHES of good help, too. Most of the guys dressed to the teeth in white shirts with black pants, and some even with their bow ties!
