Our Week
Sunday evening through Thursday evening
Because it took six entries to post last weekend, it’s time to fill you in on a few other activities from our week.
After getting home from taking the chapel back to TFC’s Office on Sunday afternoon, I walked through the woods to my sister’s house where she and her husband were hosting a baby shower for their youngest daughter Amy.
I got there after everyone had gone home, and just minutes before Amy and Kevin packed up all their new items.
On Tuesday morning, Lois & Harold Keller and Glenn & Rachel Fahnestock came to help label the single mailing of TFC’s Highway News and Good News (June issue).

Cerwin is getting good at using his left arm and hand.
I told him that he is becoming ambidextrous. He has been painting with his left hand – in preparation for putting the final coat of paint on our house on Monday – when the children come back for another painting party.
Thursday evening was “Pavilion Cleanup” for my siblings and some of our children.
I was weed-eating, and missed getting a photo of most of the raking of leaves or washing of tables.
After the work was done most of us took time to look at the neat scrapbook Dave and Laura made for our sister-in-law Brenda (in red). Laura is Brenda’s daughter. My sister-in-law Dot and stepmother, Velma, are the two looking at the book.
Then it was time for the real reason we get together – to eat! Everybody brings food or drink.

Rhubarb pie
Hot dogs always taste better when roasted over a fire.
We don’t even bother with tablecloths on this night, because everything has just been scrubbed.
Jesse and Jenna
When I watch these two (my brother Dale and our son Jere), I am always reminded of their similarities. Jere even has some of Dale’s facial expressions.

It’s been a warm, beautiful week.
