ON THE BRIGHT SIDE
The moments of our lives may be bright with possibility, dark with fear or sadness, or even plain everyday gray, but God's glory never fades. May God's glory shine into the exciting lights, upsetting darks, and boring grays of your every day.

THOUGHT FOR TODAY
When you look at your life, the greatest happinesses are family happinesses.
Joyce Brothers
Over the years I’ve played a lot of games of Scrabble with family and friends. They say that the skills used to play the game create a healthy mind. Our minds need to be used and playing word games does help improve our memory.
Today is our family Easter celebration so I’ll be spending some time in the kitchen this morning getting my dish to share ready to go. The pictures today are from last year’s get together. Hopefully I’ll have some pictures to share tomorrow of this year’s celebration.
I don’t have to travel far at all today as DS#5 and family, who are our hosts today, live here in town, but will keep those that are traveling in my thoughts and prayers for a safe journey here and back.
I hope you all have a SUPER Saturday!
COUNTING MY GIFTS
Having a place to go —is a home. Having someone to love —is a family. Having both — is a blessing.
Donna Hedges
Counting at least 3 things every day that I'm thankful for. There is truly is always something to be thankful for.
6969. for family celebrations that bring us all together
6970. for food to share
6971. for good times, they make great memories
Enter into His courts with thanksgiving — and in His presence is fullness of Joy!
Please pray for God's protection of
our troops and HIS wisdom for their
commanders.
Almighty and eternal God,
Protect our military
as they discharge their duties
with the shield of your strength,
may the power of your love
enable them to return home in safety
that with all who love them
they may ever praise you for your loving care.
AND bless our Police Officers, Firefighters
and Paramedics and EMT’s
We ask this through Christ our Lord.
Amen
GOD BLESS YOU ALL!

It's a great day for an Easter Egg hunt !
Love to play scrabble on the computer.
I think it's high time we dust off our Scrabble board! Have yourself a super time with your loved ones!
I love Scrabble. I play a similar version on line called Word Tornado. It is good to keep our minds active like this.
Have fun at your Easter celebration, Ma!
We are doing ours sort of today too. Dying Easter eggs tonight and I'm giving the grand kids their baskets tonight as DIL has family coming next week so they'll be spending time with them.
