.... Never Forget Taps |
Good morning, alfa6! Our bricks are still sitting in that pile in the corner of the yard. Building a path is at the bottom of Hubby's To Do list. I wish he had half your energy. :^)
Thank you alfa6. The party sounds like it will be fun even without the Pony rides.
I'm off on the road for about a 9 hour drive, travel prayers appreciated.
Hugs to all the Foxhole!
I wish I had half my energy too :-)
I am beginning to think that my mom's stepdad was the smartest man I've known. His toolbox had a srewdriver, a hammer and a broken pair of pliers. Nobaody ever asked Grandpa Stranz to fix anything.

READ: Psalm 8
When I consider Your heavens, the work of Your fingers, the moon and the stars, . . . what is man that You are mindful of him? —Psalm 8:3-4
During a walk through the picturesque Garden of the Gods in Colorado Springs, our attention was diverted from the huge, majestic, sandstone rocks toward two people wearing homemade robot suits. The park was thronged with summer tourists who immediately began taking pictures of the robots while their children gathered round to touch and talk to them. Folks who had come to admire the silent beauty of God’s creation were now watching people in cardboard costumes sprayed with silver paint.
It reminded me of my quiet time. How often I sit down to seek the Lord through Bible reading and prayer, only to be drawn away by the newspaper, an unpaid bill, or a list of things to be done. The psalmist had better focus when he wrote: “O Lord, our Lord, how excellent is Your name in all the earth, who have set Your glory above the heavens! . . . When I consider Your heavens, . . . what is man that You are mindful of him, and the son of man that You visit him?” (Psalm 8:1,3-4).
While contemplating the Lord and meditating on His creation, the psalmist’s self-important attitude shifted to one of humble appreciation for God’s goodness. It can be true of us too, if we can keep the robots and the rocks in proper perspective.
Bible in One Year: Bible in One Year: Psalms 13-15; Acts 19:21-41
Oh, now THAT is too funny!
Perfect! We're getting ready to go to the hobby store. I hate it, but I get to go to Circuit City. :^0
Thanks for the prayers Mayor. To all: I MADE IT! Long kind of boring drive and hotter than hades.
Thank you for checking in Snippy.. So glad to see you made it safely. Please keep us up to date....
WOW, so glad you checked in and Thank God you arrived safely.
Best Wishes, Snippy in your new job.
*HUGS*
Thanks Mayor for the ping!
Our Snippy is safe!
: )
Thank you feather. Today I get my work clothes organized and head out to check out the surroundings.
Well I've survived the big party yesterday :-) Here is a pic of the two granddaughters that turned 5 yesterday getting thier cakes. Anissa is on the left with the red hair and Katie is the one with her arms folded.
And a pic of the water slide that the kids and somew of the adults played on for almost three solid hours. I ended up sitting on top of the slide so I could help pull the kids up. 
And of course I helped the kids go down as well :-))
Y'all have a great day, I am off the the Hoem Depot to stock up for the fall projects.
Regards
