I started the day with a well before 6 rollout as it was one of those nights where I was so involved with my schedule of work before leaving here and then again after arriving in the mountains. I get so excited about making this change that I stay awake and have difficulty sleeping, Oh well. We got ready and picked up neighbors Dan and Carol a little after 8 and headed over to our friends house along with close to 20 or so other Bridgepoint folks for a breakfast and then to watch the worship service from our Tyrone Campus. We are hoping to get back to in house services soon for the 4 campus's; we of course will be gone before that happens here in Seminole. Cornerstone in Sparta was back in the house yesterday for the first time since March for a live service.
We mingled after the service and headed home to get ready for the family arriving around 2'ish. The boys were so cute and everyone loved playing with and watching them eat. Eliza is just taken by them and wants to hold and cuddle with them constantly. She uses her little baby voice when talking to them and its so cute as well, since she is just 6.We had salsa and guacamole to warm up the taste buds as were having chicken and steak fajitas, black beans and Jasmine rice and Amy made a cheesecake which was so delicious with blueberry and strawberry toppings, oh my what a feed we had. We will need several hikes to the top of the mountain next week to wear off these delicious meals we have been eating lately. Seems everyone wants to fatten us up before we leave next Sunday.
It was a great day and while it was a cloudy day which brought us a little rain it wasn't scalding hot, just real muggy. I'm beginning to believe maybe the evening showers maybe on the agenda here which usually happens during summer months here in Florida. I sure hope all of the rain that fell last week in the mountains has cleared out and allowed the ground to dry up enough for gardening next week. I'm bringing 5 different leafy green seedlings as well as a couple volunteer tomato plants and some herbs with me when we come.
I'm hoping to get in some pickle ball each morning the next three days and then of course we will be in Brandon all day Thursday and Friday so we will be packing and doing some house cleaning before we head to Amy's on Saturday evening for supper. I'm looking forward to some cooler mornings and some wide open spaces. We do love our neighbors despite being within spitting distance and the stores are located close to the house which means we will go to town once a week for necessities instead of nearly everyday which Nancy does, oh well its a different life style but we love the change and the folks we know there, LATER
