in His hands

Today...

Today we went to Sunday School and I was blessed with several second grader's smiling faces.  Then they asked me to stay in the 2-3 year olds during worship.  We had 7 in there.  They just played and had the best time.  They are so cute.  I'm not sure I could do that every day.  I'm getting too old ;o)

Tonight we walked to the Hike & Bike and met our friends, Ersa & Richard.  We walked the Trail.  it was a lovely evening.  The Trail was busy with people.  It was about 5.2 miles from our house and back.  Yes, we are too old for that, too! ;o)  I think we will do this once a week to see if we can't just get "over it." HA!

This Fresh Find looks like a fun way to store those butter sticks for things like corn on the cob!

Birds and peaches...

The birds are pecking our peaches before they are quite ripe.  The peaches are smaller because the tree produced so many.  We thinned and the wind thinned and still there are many, many peaches left.  I'm hoping we get a few to share with others than the birds ;o)

Need today's Fresh Find to hold all those reading items!  Simple, clean design!

July 4th & friends...

Today was a great July 4th.

We got to see some really great people.  Like Dr. Karrh.  I wish he lived closer.  Saw Kara and her new baby.  8 weeks old and a precious little boy!  Kristan was here, too.  It was good to see them.  The Gibbs were in from Lubbock.  Moving to College Station.  It may be their last July 4th in Plainview!!!  Maybe not?

Talked to Pat Smith for a long while.  I rarely see her, but she is one of my favorite people! Her mom was our Acteens leader and is so special in my life!

Saw Todd, Patrick, Lauren & Ryan...the "kids" and they are the sweetest.  Didn't recognize Mr. Patrick.  He had some facial hair going on and has filled out...barely!  Always one of my favorites in junior literacy.

Had fun visiting with the Helms who were here visiting with Carolyn & Danny.  They are such sweet people. 

Many others that it was good to see.

Anyway, a fun day!

Added a new photo album from today in the left sidebar.  Check it out!!!

These are some of our Ellison relatives.  They don't look too happy if you ask me.  Of course, when you consider what they had on in order to have this picture made, I know I would be frowning, too!!!  Maybe Florence was throwing a teenager fit?  Holloway has a little smirk on his face if you ask me.  Martha looks like she is on the high side of angry!  I'm really glad that we live in the time we do, aren't you?

My Fresh Find is great today.  Well, it is always great, but I bought today's!  A photo frame, cordless phone.  You can do black, silver or a combo.  Photo caller-ID recognition.  Pretty awesome!!!

Family...

Today I took my mom over to Warren Dayton's funeral in Littlefield.  Yes, I had my camera and took a few pictures (respectfully).

My mom, sister-in-law Debby and nephew Carey

This is the beautiful stained glass from the church.  Aren't the colors lovely?  This is just how the Dayton family is.  Lots of colors with sun showing through in places!!!
