What a Great Weekend!


I had the rare privilege of having my teenage grandsons for the weekend . We thoroughly enjoyed them. We had dinner with Lanny, Lila and the girls along with their friend Erica. Also the boys cousin Danielle stayed with us. After dinner we stopped by the park where the High School CSU club was having a gospel sing. That is where the picture was taken if I can get it to post. Then they decide to rent a scary movie and eat ice cream so I invited them to our house to watch it on the big screen. Much to Lanny's delight and Jeff's chagrin (lol) they accepted. It was so much fun. They ate ice cream and I, yes I, made cookies. They were great. The movie even scared the dog so we retreated to the bedroom.


Then Sunday morning I got the kids up and we all went to Sunday School and Church together. What a blessing. While we were waiting to get ready for church my oldest grandson got a phone call from a friend who tells him he needs to get to church (their church). He tells him he is but he is at his grandparents in Cameron. Now I know this is how it is suppose to be but it has not always been this way. Praise the Lord for His grace and mercy.


Parents enjoy your children even when it's not what you may have planned. God gives us opportunities that we don't always recognize as gifts. As our family is all to much aware, we don't always get the next chance we thought we would have to enjoy these precieous moments.
