This is our kitty.  You know, the one Mom said would never be in the house.  Rule #1 Never say Never.   The girls begged for an inside cat and finally we gave in.  So now this furball is part of our life.  She does occasionally have her good moments.   However the girls love her dearly so I guess she stays.  Thanks Grace for the picture.   Today has been cool and overcast.  Fog is, thankfully, gone.  Hubby had a great time shooting yesterday.  He hopes to go again soon.  We have been without a pastor for several months.  Today we heard a trial sermon from a prospective pastor, with a fellowship meal following the sermon.  (Gotta have our food).   He will preach again next Sunday.  Then the church will vote.  I’m not sure my feelings on this yet.  I’m still praying.  Tonight we will hear Mike Wingfield preach at a neighboring church.  I’m sure it will be interesting.  Gotta Go.  God Bless.

P.E. Class

Every day the weather permits the girls try to take Jasper on a walk.  They want to teach him how to walk on a lease.  They call this their P.E. class.  They walk to the top of the hill on the tractor road.   As you can tell, the kitten goes too.  Sometimes, however, Dad has a real P.E. class for them.  Anyone who has ever moved much wood knows what a workout that can be.  It was a beautiful day for working outside.  A litte windy, as usual, but warm with lots of sunshine.  The last two days, however, have not been so nice.  Lots of fog and wet.  Oh well.  The girls were probably glad for the fog.  The splitter was loaned to us from a friend at church.  We are very thankful for the use of it.  Splitting wood by hand, I think, is a young man job.  The older we get the harder it is to do.  So thanks again, Dale.  We appreciate it.   Hubby is gone today with other church members to shoot some clays.  The place, I think, is called Primland and that’s about all I know.  They go there quite often.  George has been looking forward to going with them for quite some time.  They seem to always have lots of fun.  Tonight is our Halloween Alternative at church.  We call it Christfest.  Lots of fun.  Dress Up-kids and adults.  Lots of games and candy.  I will try to get some pictures to post so you all can see what fun it really is.  I pray everyone enjoys the children tonight and that everyone will be safe.  In my Daily Bread devotional today, it talks about children tonight filling their bags with candy and then it asks “What are we filling our vessels with?”  Think about it tonight every time you drop candy in a child’s bag.  If we are not filled with the Holy Spirit, we leave room for other things to fill us.  End of sermon.  God Bless.

Good Morning

God certainly knows how to say good morning.  The temperatures dropped down to 40 last night.  Pretty chilly.  The fog (something we have a lot of) was putting in an appearance this morning.  When the sun breaks through, the fog doesn’t stand a chance.  Isn’t that how life goes.  When the Son shows up, the darkness and fog of our lives doesn’t stand a chance.  My morning devotion.  God Bless.
