It’s wonderful to have Rachel home! We are eagerly anticipating Joshua’s return on Saturday! It’s also our 23rd anniversary. Busy times. Full hearts.
The sun was shining, and Rachel and I took advantage of the beautiful day to be together. David and Sarah had their online classes, so Rachel and I snuck away for coffee with a friend and then hours of shopping.
So many memories of hours of girl time with my mom growing up. As the only girl with three brothers, I was very close to my mom. She was (and still is) a wonderful companion, godly influence, and heart-friend. Rachel is blessed to have a younger sister, but the two of us LOVE to spend time shopping, laughing, relaxing, and just being together. It is an honor and joy to have daughters who want to spend time with me and whose company I genuinely enjoy.
We bought some cute work clothes for Rachel, loaded the car up with lot and lots of fresh produce (trying to eat HEALTHY here as a family), and made it home just in time to have Daniel help with all the groceries. Smart!
Rachel was wiped out in the afternoon and enjoyed a power -I’m done with school – nap. We finished our homeschooling. Daniel went to work at Chick-Fil-A, and then I took the younger kids to the park for a game of frisbee. Somehow in all our sweet time together, the only picture I took was this (not close) shot of the kids playing Ultimate.
Frisbee Time
We live in such a beautiful state! The beauty of God’s creation around me is a constant source of joy. Our small group held its meeting outside, on the dock at the lake.
I never get tired of looking at the water.
In the middle of our time together, two large eagles soared above the water and perched in a tree right next to us. Later, one of them flew dramatically low and near to our group. Incredible! I wish I had captured it on video.
I zoomed in – look closely to see both eagles.
I hate posting the blog late, but I didn’t have the energy to write last night. This is Monday’s Blog, and the pictures were all taken Monday. Keeping up with the Project 365!!
