Our weekly snapshot
Here’s a look back at our week:
Josh and Nate helped paint a room at church. This was to help pay for winter retreat - which was in Febt. 🤣On Sunday Nate played guitar at another church for special music.
Darryl and I went to his nieces house for a family Easter gathering. They own an Elk farm do we got to meet the elk.
While we were there, Josh, Nate, and their band led worship at youth group.
We celebrated my dad’s birthday with ice cream.
And then we had fun with a disco light. 🤪

A few of my Favorite things
I love Dr. Pepper; I recently tried the “zero” version and feel like it tastes just like the original which makes me very happy! I love my new shower curtain. I have a think for shower curtains and tablecloths. They are fun, add character and whimsy and are easy to change!

Weekly Song - There is Power
I'm a pretty big Crowder fan. I just really liked this performance of a great hymn. It will not be for everyone - but I sure like it!

Sweet and Sassy Harley! We love him so much.Easter Fun!
On Wednesday we attended a funeral for a family friend. We visited my dad’s spot and got lunch at our favorite Chinese place in my hometown.
Josh and Nate’s band took some great photos last weekend.
I got to treat myself to Panara early Friday morning while Nate had PSAT testing.
Nate at testing.
After testing Nate and I tried Canes Chicken. It was “meh”. We both said we wouldn’t need to go again. We ordered one meal and split it. Basically we ordered everything on the menu 🤣. Chicken fingers, fries, coleslaw, and garlic bread.
