Party Time
The potatoes were peeled and placed in salt water this morning before breakfast. This 5 pound bag from Aldi only had one not so good potato and all of the rest were great.
We left for church a little after 9:00 am. Randy and Kathy brought Nancy. Berlica took her up to the front to sing but since I didn't see Anni and Joan was gone she just stayed with me for the first service instead of going to Sunday school. Tim Roecker had the morning message on King Josiah. Click HERE to listen to that message. I remember listening to a message about Josiah going to fight against Neco in a message from Jeff Waibel in Leo. I tried to find that message on AC Central as that is where I heard it but was not able to. It was a few years ago and I would love to listen to it again. At lunch pictures came in of Ruth's surprise birthday party down in Gulf Shores. The sisters surprised her with a Luau.
Ruth turned 65 today and tomorrow is Joan's 60th, birthday. Her family was all getting together this afternoon at her house for a party for her. . There wasn't enough room at the tables to eat so these 3 sisters ate their lunch in the alcove.
Faith and Drew were going through their registry list, she saw a wine bottle opener on that list.
Faith said "we don't need that, I've never ever even used one of those." Sarah quipped right back, "That's because you are only 18 years old."
Hannah brought her new baby boy to church and had him wrapped up tight.
Mike Kaisner had the afternoon message on Isaiah 38 when King Hezekiah was told by Isaiah that he was going to die and when he prayed and wept God granted him 15 more years. Click HERE to watch that. After church Nancy came home with us and 'helped' me with cooking tonight's dinner. We had the food all cooked and loaded into Mark's car by 4:00 pm and drove that over to the barn. We had a feast tonight. Those crock pots were full when we started, the picture below was after the first group went through.
By the time everyone had eaten they were all almost empty. Then came the birthday party for Zeke.
Nancy really got into the singing.
All those little boys were pretty interested in his gifts.
After the party the Bears game was turned on. We heard lots of cheers and lots of groans from those watching. Those not were playing games.
Rhoda offered to take Nancy home, she also took Iris, Zeke, Zion, Eden and River as there is no school tomorrow they were having a sleep over.
I left shortly after that. Most stayed to finish watching the game which went into overtime but the Bears lost.
