Dear Family,

 

            Don’t you love it when a plan all comes together?  Bobby had all youth (JH and HS) participate in a Barbeque Wednesday night.   Many people showed up.  Getting out of the house is a big deal these days.  Hot Dogs, Burgers, even veggies were a hit and we all enjoyed being outside.  Several highlights were Kona Ice – my favorite part was overhearing Bobby ask, “How many cups do we have left?”  They said, “One.”  Bobby excitedly said, “I’ll take it!”  He preordered 50 drinks and it all worked out so he got the last one.  Beautiful!  Also, the kids enjoyed this interesting game.  You can throw a water balloon if you can catch it (from the leaders).  There were many smiles and much laughter as balloons were lobbed into the air.

            Bobby made Chicken wings this week and was very happy with how they turned out.  Bobby also brought home yummy Strawberries from Rotary.  I am glad he helps prepare them for storage.  It doesn’t take long with both of us working.

            Fathers day Bobby decided he wanted “Straight from New York Pizza”.  Seth confirmed that this is the best gourmet pizza in Salem.  Everyone was pleased and well-fed.

            Adriel’s Cherry Pie was amazing!  A day later when I asked if I could have another piece she said, “Of course you can.”  Yum!  Adriel also spent some time chatting with me as she ate dinner one night.  She is happy to ride bicycles and pick raspberries with her boyfriend.  Anything is fun if you are with the one you love.

            Seth mowed the lawn and wrote thank you notes this week.  We are thankful for all who gave well wishes and cards for High School graduation.  You helped him know this is a major accomplishment. 

I do miss Seth.  He is working more hours for the summer and we don’t see him in the evenings anymore.  It’s sad having that empty chair.  Yet Seth is still here in the mornings and if I do see him, I am glad.

            May you rejoice in those who love you.  May you find peace in doing God’s will and may you find purpose as you seek His guidance.  Love and hugs,

 

Cristy
