Party Time

Church was great Tim Funk had the morning service reading first in Job and then in James. We were reminded that wisdom comes from fearing God.  And unto man he said, Behold, the fear of the Lord, that is wisdom; and to depart from evil is understanding. 
The men are now helping serve at the lunch tables and I must say what a great idea this is. They are doing a great job and gives some of us a bit of a break.
Mike Rieker had the afternoon service reading in Genesis of Joseph, what men meant for evil God meant for good.
We barely made it home from church before we loaded up and headed to the fellowship hall for Ashley Christ's graduation open house. That was amazing, Carol and her family had the fellowship hall decorated beautifully and all kinds of goodies were served. We left there and drove straight to Dave and Kathy's for Kathy's surprise 60th, birthday party and she WAS surprised. Amazing to think probably over a hundred people were invited and no one spilled the beans. When we finally arrived home for good, Karin had already had the horses tacked for Sarah Reinhard's company.

Horses used were Cookie, Jenis, Indy, Anna, Missy and Ribbon. Anna was bored with the ride, either that or she is laughing at Hannah. Click on the picture above to see Anna (the horse) laughing.

 Below are the riders all back safe and sound.

Pictured below is Dirk's wife Karen. Dirk and Karen are visiting from Haiti until Tuesday.

The playground was filled with volley ball players and dogs.

Besides dogs playing on the playground there was a funny group on the tramp

 Mike and Diane made it back from Middle Grove with this nice Crappie. Braelyn was fascinated by it. Sarah Reinhard cleaned it and cooked it for her company.

 Check out the picture below, that is 3 year old Braelyn driving the golf cart. She didn't even run into anything but all of us watchers were all gasping each time she would miss an obstacle.

The young group got back from their trip to the Creation Museum. Fede was the bus driver, Ruth arrived at the playground and told us it was a great trip. We sure appreciate Fede having his CDL license and driving the bus for church trips. Braelyn and Taegan are spending the night at the apartment with Sarah tonight. They will be coming down for breakfast in the morning. They play so hard they should sleep well.
