Rest in the Lord and be willing to wait for Him. Psalm 37:7 (NLV)
Saturday Evening, April 2 Checking out the menu at General Sutter Inn in Lititz for Diane’s January 1st birthday. Deb looks like she is checking out the ceiling. 🙂 It took awhile for us to find a date that suited everyone – when Diane was visiting from Maine – so we were three months late. We had so […]
Friday Afternoon, April 1 This diner is a good place to meet Deb since she and Roy live an hour away from us. It is a half-hour drive for both of us. Diane ordered something that had a side she didn’t want. She exchanged it for this salad – with hot bacon dressing. We all took samples. […]
Friday, April 1 Anthony loves doing anything with sticks, so when Cerwin said that he was going to work in the yard, I got my large wagon. He also put some small logs into Jere’s trailer – from a downed tree. Then he went back to his wagon. When Cerwin arrived with his wheelbarrow, Anthony offered […]
For 31 years of safe driving with White Oak Mills.
Monday, September 7 Nothing – positively nothing – outside of my relationship with the Lord – makes me happier than to enjoy time with our children and their children and getting a glimpse into their lives. Monday was a relaxing day for us – no deadlines or appointments. Elizabeth looking through a cookbook. Mark on his cell phone. He […]
Saturday Afternoon, August 8 This was one of the nicest playgrounds I have ever seen. The birthday boy – our great-nephew. This party was for his 2nd birthday.

Sunday, May 24 The Hershey’s are my family – my siblings and their families. This used to be our Easter dinner, but because there are so many people – 97 if everyone came – Cerwin and I organize this meal in May, hoping the weather will be nice so we can be outside. We were expecting […]
Sunday Afternoon, May 17 After church and the bridal shower, we found a woodsy area to take pictures of Heze and Lydia.

When […]

Monday, May 11 You may remember that our niece Judi and her husband, Reuben, were here for almost a month last winter as they began the process of adopting a little boy. They were back for a few days for a court date. It has been a “nerve-wracking” journey for them, and it is ongoing. […]
Sunday, May 10 I know – Mother’s Day was a couple of weeks ago. I am still catching up with myself in my large file of pictures. Cerwin gave me these pretty flowers a few days before Mother’s Day.

Wednesday, April 22 One of the good things about being home again is watching my birds. This cardinal was enjoying a bath. It must have been rain water, because I hadn’t cleaned or filled the bird bath yet. His lady was on the ground searching for seeds. Cerwin’s birthday supper at RD’s with Deb, Roy, […]
Sunday (Easter), April 5 We all awoke to the shrieking of smoke alarms – 5:30 AM – because Jere was lighting a fire in the fireplace and had the flue closed a bit too tight. We made sure to give him a lot of grief during the morning. 🙂 Deb and Kristen making breakfast. Cinnamon […]

Wednesday, February 11 We have been talking about going here for the past few years, and this was the day we finally made it work.

We planned to go on Thursday, but because of snow, changed the appointment to […]
Saturday, January 31 Our oldest daughter, Diane, had an opportunity to come here (from Maine) for a short weekend – with two van loads of people going to a youth conference. Their grandson draws her here like a strong magnet. 🙂 Eight-month-old Anthony doesn’t have the “smile for the camera” routine down yet. Diane treasures her time […]
