Inauguration Day

Just like 9/11, most people will remember where they were on January 20, 2008. The Inauguration that made history!!! I will not forget. I was firmly planted in my chair from 8:30 a.m. until the entire Inauguration was over including the famous walk that President Obama and Michelle took as they approached the White House and some of the coverage after it. So for the most part I stopped on that day and took part of it!!! Now, as for Papa and "Weetie Pea".........well, I'm sure they will not remember a word that was said the last couple of minutes!!! They decided they would just take a little cat nap!! Or maybe they were just praying, right? :-) I don't think that's what they were doing, but that's what we should do!!! The Bible clearly tells us that we are to pray for our leaders
("First of all, then, I urge that petitions, prayers, intercessions, and thanksgivings be made for everyone, for kings and all those who are in authority, so that we may lead a tranquil and quiet life in all godliness and dignity." 1 Timothy 2:1-2) and this President and his family are no different than any others we have had previously. So, if you did or even if you didn't vote for him, as a Christian, it's your responsibility to pray for he and his family!!!!

Roasted marshmallow anyone?

I took this picture some time ago. The cold weather really brings out some strange things in us. This is what you do when you are desperate for a roasted marshmallow in the dead of winter. My hubby decided he wanted one so he roasted one in the house on a fork!! Where there's a will, there's a way they say!!! And I took part in it!!! Ugh!!!

To be or not to be........

Preparing for that most wondrous role at Christmas or just to annoy Francis?? I'm not sure which one, but he sure did a good job of growing that beard!! I heard a lot tell him it made him look old. I don't think so Bro. Bill!! I like beards and I just think it makes you look......well........"distinguished", if you will!!! :-) We were enjoying ourselves at the Pastor and Wives Christmas party at Ponderosa that our Association hosts for us each year. It's always a great time and appreciated by us!! I told you I'd put it on my blog Bro. Bill.........and I did!!!!
