In Sunday School the boys (Max, Jackson, and Cody) learned about the Ten Commandments. They had much more to add to the lesson than I was prepared to explain! But really they were good and seemed to enjoy learning. Todd’s message was the first in a series based in Matthew 23 – he called it the ‘Woes’! Basically we just need to beware of being ‘pretenders’ and seek our own relationship with Jesus.
Popped in WOW Outlet after church – strange color for an Easter tree!
Let’s jump back to yesterday since I didn’t actually post yesterday. Most of my morning was spent in putting up St. Patrick’s Day decorations. There’s a lot more but I didn’t document them – yet. Here are a few photos:
I picked up Autmn and Cameron about noon, and Autmn put the window stickees up on all the windows and mirrors. She was very creative. Here are two photos.
I was happy to have some baby time! We played and ate and napped and sang. He likes his little teething wafers, and is holding his own bottle! How can this be! He’s five months old today!
After taking the ‘kids’ back to Jaime’s, I got ready for the play. I went with Deb and Jim to Latrobe High School’s production of The Wizard of Oz. It was great! One of the best plays I’ve seen in quite a while! I know Abigail (Glinda the good witch) and Elise (a munchkin, a poppy, and several other support parts) from Hempfield Church. They are both in the praise band. All the actors/actresses were wonderful – Dorothy and the Scarecrow were my favorites after Glinda!
Today after church it was beautiful weather – 70*!! I changed clothes and worked outside for about an hour – I changed the outdoor flags, then was ‘kicking around’ the stump in the corner of the bottom yard and knocked it over! It was too heavy to pick up, so I rolled it into a black trash bag and then into my garden cart and took it up to the road for the trash. Easy! I trimmed my Pinky-Winky Hydrangea, then cut back the cat mint that finally died over the winter.
The daffodils are in bud, and I have a cluster of about a dozen hyacinths that will be beautiful when they all bloom together. I had some ‘company’ for a while – a red bird in the tree that followed me around for a few minutes.
After a quick lunch (a bowl of Cheerios with bananas) I drove down to Buncher Park in Youngwood and took a long walk – almost two miles, which is long for these days. I took a lot of pictures.
I made brownies when I got home – Kelly and the boys are coming tomorrow for 3 days, and my cousin Mark is coming for supper tomorrow. So, dessert!
TRIVIA: What state capital is the southernmost among the 48 contiguous states??? Answer tomorrow.
PEANUTS Thought for the day, courtesy of Diane:
TOMORROW March 4th is:
March Forth Day (most commanding day of the year…); National Salt Awareness Week; National Grammar Day; National Marching Band Day; National Pound Cake Day; National Safety Day; National Snack Day; National Fountain Pen Day; National Sons Day (I HAVE ONE!!!); Toy Soldier Day; National Backcountry Ski Day; National Dance the Waltz Day; Courageous Followers Day; Fun Facts About Names Day; Hug a G.I.
