A 2021 “Blessing Post” That Moves Us Into 2022
I combined several blessings in this post. Things that have happened to us recently. Four freshly baked (delicious) cranberry muffins arrived from our sweet neighbors, Alan and Dani just before Christmas. A beautiful poinsettia from Barb and Mary – our son-in-law’s (Roy) mom and sister. A delightful Christmas bouquet from Josh (grandson), Emily and Tucker. […]

Christmas Eve
~~~ Friday Evening, December 24 ~~~ Jere invited us to go with their family and Roy, Deb and Barb (Roy’s mom) to see a movie at Penn Cinema. This was a regular happening for us until Covid cancelled it last year. They look over the reviews and choose the movie they think will best fit […]
Babysitting Great Grandchildren
~~~ Wednesday, December 22 ~~~ Anthony likes watching Paw Patrol whenever he has opportunity. He was glad his mom (our granddaughter Abby) didn’t bring any schoolwork for him this time. Jasmine was into dressing teddy bears during this visit – and catching glimpses of Paw Patrol. This is the first time we kept Natalie – […]
Waxing Gibbous Moon & A Pretty Sunset
The other evening I noticed a pretty sunset and went outside with my camera. However, my attention was drawn to the moon that was just rising in the eastern sky. It looked wintry and pretty behind our hickory trees with bare branches. The setting sun also painted a beautiful sky.

Our 2nd Christmas Celebration – Part 1
~~~ Sunday, December 19 ~~~ The first celebration was on Sunday, December 5 with most of the Myers family here. Other family members were invited to stop in for dessert. It was the day that suited the Myers – from Maine and Tennessee – but didn’t suit many of the others – the reason we […]
Preparations for Our Christmas Celebration
~~~ Saturday Morning, December 18 ~~~ This year it was decided that Cerwin and I would prepare the place and our children would choose and prepare the meal – a sign that we are getting older and need help. You cannot imagine how thankful I was for their ideas and help. You probably already read […]
A New Home for Barb – Roy’s Mom

Sunrise Extraordinaire

Servant Stage and Dinner with the Old Gang
~~~ Saturday Evening, December 11 ~~~ I was looking forward to the evening because we had never seen Servant Stage and it is always fun to be with these old friends. Servant Stage was performing at Lancaster Alliance Church near Lancaster. They began by singing 12 Days to Christmas, Winter Wonderland, I’ve Got My Love […]
A Glimmer of Hope or a Hope That is Full and Sure
Sometimes hope in a person or something concerning an earthly situation is like this sunset. There is only a glimmer of hope. But hope in God is like this sunset. Full and sure.
Christmas Blessings from Church
Last week our church’s Christmas Fruit Packing Committee put together 26 grocery boxes… …30 one-peck fruit baskets… … 60 half-peck fruit baskets and 27 poinsettias. Many church members signed up to deliver food and fruit baskets or poinsettias. I took the pictures when I went to pick up the three half-peck boxes we chose to […]
