Simple Pleasure

Would you believe grown ladies could get so excited about a podium? That's the way we are.
We love diamonds and chocolate; but we still get warm' fuzzies' over simple pleasures.

Our Ladies' Bible Class meets on Tuesday mornings and that is where we will be. We enjoy studying God's word! And we love being together.

Our old podium was make shift, small and presently held together with duct tape. Really.
Jane decided we needed a new one and Gail knew someone who would make it for us. We topped it off with a brass dedication plate. And we are simply delighted.

Happy Place

Don't have time to make a layout today, but want to show you this one. I made it for a contest, but found out after I finished it the contest was last month. Oh well. I enjoyed it. Actually happiness would be "my laptop with me out back by the lake" if it were big enough and bright enough to see out there. And if it could hold all the info I have on my desktop. I just have to settle for sitting here by the window and glancing out over the lake once in a while. The gazebo is still a happy place to spend a few minutes. I'm not much into sitting and doing nothing very long.

Tips

For those of you who could not see the letters on the back of the car yesterday, double click on the picture and it will get large. You should be able to see the letters well.

Back to Fall

The triplets make a trip to the Pumpkin Farm each autumn. I went a couple of times with them. It is quite fun. It has become a tradition.

I didn't even realize I'd lost my phone Friday night until they called me from the restaurant to verify it was mine. Ron ran down to pick it up the next morning because I was going paper scrapping all day in the opposite direction. (Yes, I still do some of that. Have supplies and enjoy it sometimes.)

Tuesday I had made four other stops when I noticed my camera was gone and I would have gladly just died...since I hated to tell my hubby I had made the same mistake again already. Besides that I had pictures of my Ladies' Bible Class on it that I had just taken that morning.

I started praying that it was at Chick-Fil-A, because if I had lost it anywhere else, a pick pocket would have it. I pleaded with God to help me find it...and reminded him that I know He knew when I lost it that I needed help and that He could have protected me from that point.

Thank God for the peace that brought me and for helping me be rational while I looked.

And thank God for the honest man who found it and turned it in at the register.

Crash 09

On the way home from dinner out with friends last night, we spotted this car as it passed us in traffic. With my urging we caught up and stopped behind him at the light. How good it is to have a camera in my purse.

Early Birds

Joan and I share many opinions and a pew at church. We generally beat most others to our seats. Yesterday, I decided we needed a picture . Aren't we cute in our matching colors?
