Sunday Morning..Dec..15th

Well Saturday was a fun day that started with the grands spending the night an awakening around 7'ish. I was hoping they would sleep in but No, they were up having a grand time with their cousins. They all play so great together and they have let Eliza become a big part of their fun times together. After feeding them bagels, eggs, bacon, toast, juice and a fresh fruit salads they headed in their separate rooms to laugh and cut up with their devices. I headed out to the Rec. on my bike for close to three hours of pickle ball on the outside court. It was almost a perfect morning weather wise for playing outside until close to 11 when the sun popped out and warmed things up. We did get some rain down pours in the early morning hours which the garden loved.

 I rolled out before 6 which is my usual get up time and had cup of hot green tea laced with turmeric and ginger out in the kitchen while I did some quiet time lifting several up for consideration from my Creator and Lord. Uncle Junior is still in the ICU but the dialysis seems to be having a positive effect on his congestive heart failure his daughter Tammy said. All else are holding their own at this point in time. Katie is doing as well as can be expected also she and Bobby came for lunch to pick up Annsley and Gabe. We had everyone here for a lunch of sandwiches and Zuppa Soup and then they all left around 1'ish.

I tuned into the Army-Navy game and then we got ready to head out to our Life Group at the Nymark's house around 5:30. It was Italian theme night with tons of food and desserts and then we played or had the "dirty Santa" contest where you can steal presents from each other and everyone wore some ugly sweater or clothing. It was a hoot to say the least and we did some devotion's afterwards and then headed out around 8:30. We dropped Dan and Carol off then headed on home. I soon hit the shower and watched the Lightning go down 2 goals and then cut the lights off around 9:30 as it was get up at 5 for the load in at the college for BridgePoint Church.

I just got back and there is a little chill in the air but the moon was brilliant and skies were filled with stars. We will soon be on the shortest day of the year the 21st of December. I harvested some Swiss chard to share with a couple families at church, LATER
