Monday Morning Feb 5th

 Well Sunday was a great day of worship and then family time with both kids and all 7 grands at the house for a birthday celebration for son Bobby who turned 43, wow where did that time go. What a fun time as well as a great feast and it was going on 8 when everyone decided to head out after giving the twins a bath. It had cleared up outside as well and the evening was quite comfortable. Next weekend we have a two night stay over at Bobby's as we watch the twins for the weekend while Bobby and Katie go skiing in Colorado.

I had started the day with my usual routines after sleeping in until nearly 6:30 with some quiet time to honor my LORD, give thanks for another day and to lift up several for comfort and healing. All seem to be holding as of this post. We had watched an on line service before heading out a little before 10 on a rainy morning. Thankfully Gabe's two baseball games in St. Pete had been cancelled due to the rain which meant we didn't have go down there after church. We worked the Guest Desk at church and met several new folks as well and the service/message was awesome as well and we did communion. We so love this new church with a speaker/preacher who speaks the truth about the WORD and we have fitted right in with giving back as much time as possible to assist in any way with working small jobs before and after the services. Despite the wet morning the place seemed to be quite full the second service.

We came back and had a left over deer burger for lunch and then I settled into some small jobs before everyone arrived around 4'ish. The twins rode their scooters in the road as we watched out for traffic but there was very little on this afternoon. They tired and then we headed in to sample some fruit of the vine along with some finger foods before we settled into the big meal of King Ranch chicken, rice and black beans as well as a fresh garden salad and then a lemon coconut cake for dessert which all was very delicious. We sent the left over cake home for the Ross kiddos as Nancy is making another cake for our life group on Tuesday when we have 18 folks coming for pulled pork and a get together.

After they all left we put the house back in order and I got ready for some horizontal lab and some ALONE time on the bedroom TV. I was out by 10'ish, LATER
