Easter Egg Hunt March 2008, which we all know has nothing to do with the Resurrection! It was fun watching the kids casing after good ol' chocolate eggs. I did this every year as a kid and still remember it fondly.

Random Thoughts on March 6, 2008

Psalm 37:23, 24
The steps of a good man are ordered by the Lord: and he delighteth in his way. Though he fall, he shall not be utterly cast down; for the Lord upholdeth him with his hand.

Beautiful day in here, lots of rain and wind. Quite unusual for us but it is wonderful. Lots has occured. Ofcourse Grandma N. passed away and we were all sad, as she had had a great and long life. She prayed everyday and kept short accounts, apologizing easily. She was very generous and loved the children. She was a grand woman, and is sorely missed.

We enjoyed seeing Lauryl and Brittany. Had not seen them for 3 years. Bruce and Gail will be sending Mike off to college sometime in the future and Brittany and Kyle are already there. Kyle had a bad flu bug and did not make it back for the funeral.

Catching up with Jack and Mom is always fun, though the occasion was not. We did see lots of others who we had not seen in years like Allen and Carole Elliot, Kurt Peterson, Nina and Peter, Keith and wife, Amy W., Steve W, Sue and Walter, Uncle Bobby and I am sure there is more I am leaving out. It was good to see them all and be back in touch.

I was able to catch up with Debbie and Nancy, dear friends from Willow. They are both excellent and I very much enjoyed conversation with them. We have all (in different ways) been through some trying times, but it is wonderful that we all thank God for His mercy and goodness to us.

Craig and I celebrated 22 years of marriage!! Are we old enough for that?? I guess so! It was fun to go out to dinner in Marble Falls, while the children babysat.

Did I mention how great our kids are? Okay, I am a bit biased.

I will have to post photos later. That is the step I am rusty on.
