Week 7 or is it 8 now?

We have been busy even though we took the week off from working on the church property. Of course that means that we worked at home because there is always work to do there, right? Brother Mac was sick early in the week and really need time to get over the jet lag before diving into physical labor.

Today was the first real work day. The guys - including Dawson (and Shawna part of the time) worked really hard in the garden. (That is what they call yards here whether or not there are flowers growing.) It really needed a good overhaul. The weather was lovely! It's too bad I didn't have my camera there to take before and after pictures.

Meanwhile, the rest of us worked in the church and the house cleaning, and organizing, and rearranging, and making things look and smell pretty (yes things can smell pretty).

We are looking forward to Brother Mac preaching tomorrow in his own church! After church, we are having a good old fashioned potluck (benefit of a small church). I guess it's not really a potluck because we have planned out exactly who is bringing what. Unless the "luck" comes in when the food actually arrives and is tasty.

Pray for my Sunday school lesson tomorrow. (smile)

Has it really only been 7 or 8 weeks? WOW! Time is flying by way too fast.
I had fun hanging out with Dawson and Trixie today during the wee "break" we took from the yard...I mean garden-work.
