Swimming EVERY DAY!

Tot and I don’t ever miss a day.

Even when the clouds hover….

I treasure this time with her.

As you can see, the umbrellas are down today because they just topple over when the storm haunts!

We LOVE to greet on Sundays!

And we love to match. It give us such joy to invest in others every week. We have gotten to know so many lovely people as we just stand there, smile, and greet. Often, they stop and we converse about them and how they are doing. Jan and Jerry and their health issues, Deb and Jeff and their pickle ball games, Lynne and her tummy issues and her trips to Mexico, Tommy/Tricia/Tina and their love of horses….It’s so fun each week to check in with so many and ask how we can pray. Honestly, you forget your own problems when you are focused on others. Also, we get to pray for them! Holy Spirit has such a way to remind us through the week to the needs.

What a joy to do this with my girl.

Austin and the Kitties

The joy of being responsible for another life. It changes us. Case in point: Austin. He adopted these adorable little kitties, and he is filled with so much joy. Hard? Yes. But it’s a good hard. It’s a responsibility that we need in life and it fills us with PURPOSE>

It’s a great step for him! The Tot got to meet the little kits this weekend.

She fell in love and asked to take one home. OH, Coopy. He’d have none of it!

Now we will just have to visit them at Austin’s. She sure enjoyed spending time with her big brother!

Snowbell and Snowball and TWINS!

Sunday, we bought a new fishy! And guess what? Tot wanted Snowball to have a friend even thought Betta fish are loner fish.. SO….she still wanted a female friend.

Enter, Snowbell! i. e. BELLA!

Now they peak through the barrier wondering what is on the other side. We are no different as humans…what is on other side? Is it greener? It’s not better, BTW….bloom where you are planted, right?

She is introducing her babies to the new fishies.

Legoland and Playdates

We met friends at Legoland. It never gets old.

Ethan and Tot rode the fly ride. First time I didn’t ride with the Tot!

Ethan, Elizabeth (her 2 year old) and Cana! (and a couple others joined)

This time when we went the to 4D movie, we brought our sweaters to cover our head. We get sprayed with water usually.

So much fun!
Later that week, We had Ruby over. They swam swam swam and played played played!

Friends. We love our playdates!
