My Birthday Week – Day 4
Tuesday, February 5 This was a special day – unlike the previous one. My favorite sister took me to Fox Meadows Creamery for lunch – a birthday gift. She got an affogato. I got my new favorite winter drink – a crème brulee latte. Nancy got tomato soup and a half sandwich (not sure what […]
Notes from Sunday Worship
February 17 Sunday School – Kerwin Miller, Teacher Do we give up on people – stop praying when we don’t see any change in their life? Do we really believe that Jesus has power to heal bodies and forgive sins – that God can change lives? Church – Jon Cassel, Preacher 2 Timothy 1:1-18 (With […]
My Birthday Week – Day 3
Monday, February 4 Okay, not every day in a birthday week can be special and fun. 🙂 I began my day by going to the dentist to get a crown on a tooth. At least the hard work was done, he just had to put the cap on. Before leaving I enjoyed watching this squirrel […]
My Birthday Week – Day 2
Sunday, February 3 This was our view on the way to church that day. I like the muted grays, yellows and pinks in the sky. We met Jere and Kristen’s family at Molly’s Convenience Store, then went to the Great American Outdoor Show at Harrisburg – mostly to see our African outfitter friends Phil and […]
Happy Birthday to Our Favorite Abby

My Birthday Week – Day 1
Saturday, February 2 Since my 70th birthday – 5 years ago – I try to do something extra special each day of the week prior to my birthday to remind me to be thankful to God for life and family and friends. The first day of my birthday week started with a beautiful sunrise that […]
Counted Cross-Stitch Projects
What fun to get this framed photo of our grandson Jesse back from the framer. This picture means that I have now stitched all 17 of our grandchildren. I should have had this done a year ago, but got bored with doing the background and put it on a backburner for awhile. My next project […]
Wind and Snow
Wednesday, January 30 Remember the other day when I said the Sauder cousin’s lunch had a fairly small turnout because of the weather. Check out our drive home from Oregon Dairy and you will understand why some of the cousins chose to stay home. The home stretch. This is the back side of our woodlot. […]
Beautiful Evening Snow
Tuesday, January 29 The snow started when it was still daylight and farmers were taking advantage of the frozen ground to spread manure. By bedtime the wet snow had piled deep on the branches and I knew I had to take my camera outside before crawling into our warm, cozy bed. God has a delightful […]
Notes from Sunday Worship
With photos of birds during the past week Sunday, February 10 Sunday School – Teacher Kevin Longenecker What do people feel in your presence? Do they feel Jesus? Do they feel rejection? What authority do we have to pray with people or talk to them about the power of God? Matthew 28:18-20 – we have […]
Sauder Cousin’s Lunch
Wednesday, January 30 We had a fairly small group, but lots of fun. The roads weren’t great and a snow squall was predicted – and happened – while we were eating. This is Larry and Janet, Ken, and Velda. Mel (Velda’s husband) was also there, but must have been out at the buffet to get […]
The Reason There was No Blog Entry from Me Yesterday!
Cerwin and our children had a SURPRISE 75th Birthday Party for me at lunchtime. I didn’t look at my pictures yet, but wanted to post this one from Deb’s Facebook page. Look at the cake from Cake and Cup, Lititz, PA. It is a replica of my camera. I will have pictures of the day […]
Lighted Truck
I am sure this truck has had lights on it since before Christmas, but obviously we do not travel this part of RT 322 at night, because we never noticed the lights until we were on our way home from the sportsman’s show the other night. It was difficult to get a full picture because […]
I Am Blessed
Lord, I praise you because of the wonderful way you created me. Everything you do is marvelous! Of this I have no doubt. Psalm 139:14 (CEV) Thank you, God, that You are the creator of the universe and that You are the creator of me and designed me exactly to Your specifications. Thank You for bringing me into this world and […]
Happy Birthday to Our Favorite Josh

Sportsman’s Expo & Dinner
Saturday Evening, January 26 – Gracepoint Church Ephrata We always look forward to this program and meal at a nearby church. We like to arrive early to visit the vendors, see the prizes, and hear the afternoon seminar. Visiting vendors I stopped to admire the beautiful archery bows designed by this couple and enjoyed talking […]
Notes From Sunday Worship
Sunday, February 3 – Featuring photos from the previous week. Sunday school – taught by Nevin Ebersole – Jesus has the authority to do ANYTHING. Do we truly believe that and release our burdens to His power? Church – Winter Series: God’s Direction for this Age of Confusion Does God Want Me to be Happy? by Dustin Martin We listened to […]
