Rest in the Lord and be willing to wait for Him. Psalm 37:7 (NLV)
Sunday, November 30 As we were preparing for church this morning, we noticed a few snowflakes coming down through the cold, cloudy sky. The frozen birdbath showed the most evidence of snow. We could also see the snow on our small porch. Our frozen Gerbera Daisy looked cold. By the time we left for church […]
This morning as I was organizing our refrigerator, I thought the possibility for lunch looked like we would be having leftovers. There was chili con carne, which Deb gave us on Thanksgiving Day and chicken corn chowder that I made earlier in the week. We had both for meals on Friday. As I was trying […]
Thursday, November 28 Turkey from the smoker. Oh, yum! You may remember my Thanksgiving flower arrangement from yesterday. This one was also from Lauree. Kristen telling us what to expect for lunch and the variety of foods already on the table. Mashed potatoes, turkey, stuffing (filling), peas, and sweet potatoes. Cerwin, Jeff, Josh, Kristen, Jere, […]
The other evening we were surprised by a knock on the door. It was our granddaughter-in-law Lauree who presented us with this beautiful flower arrangement. She said it was from an anonymous person. Lauree designed them – for anyone who wished to order them. We soon learned that this was a gift from our youngest […]

I enjoy seeing more birds these days as the weather gets colder and those who moved south are here for the next few months. During the summer and fall months there are plenty of grains available in the nearby fields and farms so I don’t fill the feeders as frequently Eastern Bluebirds are here most […]
Sunday, November 23 Going by our driveway
Saturday, November 22 (one day before his birthday) He didn’t seem to understand why all the attention was on him. He was fascinated by all the balloons that his Aunt Lydia brought. We enjoyed a delicious supper of roasted vegetables and sausage. Because she was at the end of the table, Lydia took this picture […]
Rhododendron The top of a birdfeeder A frosted frog in a frozen birdbath Frost tipped rose Perennial stonecrop looked extra pretty with frosted edges Our new spreading juniper was pretty as well The fallen leaves also captured my attention.
Tuesday, November 18 The other day our granddaughter Diana messaged me about bringing their children for a play date. We eventually settled on suppertime. Her husband, Donovan, his dad, and some of his brothers are on a white tail hunting trip in the Midwest, so it was a good way for these four to spend […]
We were surprised to drive into the Manheim square on Saturday evening and see that the Christmas lights were already on display. I think I remember when that didn’t happen until after Thanksgiving, but I am okay with Christmas lights being displayed for a very long time. I love Christmas – and even better – […]
We were on our way home from the play at Lampeter Church of the Brethren on Saturday when we noticed this unique hubcap tree. I am not sure if they keep it up all year long or if it is a decoration for Christmas. It doesn’t appear that any of them match. I love creative […]
It has been almost 26 years since we have seen him. Elvin Eberly High – born November 18, 1920 – died February 12, 2000. We have so many good memories of when he was a physical part of our lives.

The play opened with church secretary Robyn Handler answering the phone with a VERY long identification of their church which was required by the […]
