Home, Sweet Home – Making Our House Into a Home

While my aunt and uncle were moving into their new home, my mom decided to keep their 2 girls plus my youngest nephew at the house.  They decided to make homemade pizzas and bake cookies.  It was the biggest mess I have seen in quite a long time (can you imagine two 3 year olds with flour, dough, and pizza sauce?).  It was so fun watching those kids play with their food.  It was really refreshing.

Then, I went with our Ladies’ circle to a Progressive Dinner.  We went to Suzanne’s for yummy appetizers.  She made this yummy cream cheese and basil pesto spread, bruschetta (sp?), salsa, cheese dip and chips.  After we stuffed ourselves there, Lethea delighted our tummies with lasagna.  Kelley, Kim, Stacey, and me reminisced about the “good ol’ days) and I even won a pumpkin in a candy corn counting contest (there were 710 and I guessed 732).  Our final stop was coffee and dessert with Donna.  There we began sharing what we were thankful for.  It turned into quite an emotionally charged yet spirit-filled “program.”  Overall there were 19 ladies enjoying a great time of food, fellowship, and worship.

It was a wonderful evening with a great time of refreshment and relaxation.  I definitely need more evenings like this!
