Free Pizza!

September 28, 2016

My grandkids get free pizza when they read a certain amount of books. I think that’s really cool. Even though all I used to get was IN TROUBLE for reading too many books! 🙂 Well, maybe I was doing that instead of what I was supposed to be doing…but I always figured reading was a […]

Newbies Added …

September 28, 2016

As we started this new semester I was very quick to remind our Evangelism Director that I really wanted to have “my girls” back in my group; and that he could give me as many “newbies” as he wanted! I was thrilled to get four new girls. They “fit” well in our group and have […]

Can you hear me?

September 27, 2016

Noise. You cannot hear me for the volume of noise surrounding you.

Settling back in

September 23, 2016

Settling back into our house in PNG came with a lot of little projects. Our friends who stayed in our home for the year took great care of it and we are so thankful! But there is always clean up and sometimes surprises like finding a huge bee hive in some old tires under our […]
