ON THE BRIGHT SIDE
FOR SUNDAY, JULY 26TH, 2020
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.

Try something new, seek adventure and give this day all you’ve got All or nothing Day only happens once a year so don’t hold back.
If you can’t see the bright side, polish the dull side
THOUGHT FOR TODAY
Life is either a daring adventure or nothing.
Helen Keller
I have to say the grandchildren gave it their all yesterday as far as celebrating the birthday party. They didn’t want to quit. I try to give every day all I got, making the best of each day and doing the best I can. The party pictures shown here today are just a bit of the fun they had. They played games, did treasure hunts, and did crafts. The themes of the party were Egyptian and DDIL #4 made a cake for them shaped like a pyramid out of chocolate chip cookie bars snd also made pyramids out of rice krispie treats. We had mummie pizzas and hot dogs to eat along with fruit, veggie and cheese trays. And of course there was ice cream to go with the cake.
They have a nice shady back yard and we all enjoyed sitting on their deck talking, laughing and catching up with each other. It couldn’t have been a better day for the get together. Not everyone could be there but we certainly had a great time with those that could come. And that is what today’s pictures are of.
Today is much quieter here and it’ll be another very restful Sunday. The temps are going to be in the 90’s so I suppose I’ll be staying inside keeping cool for the most part. Taking an afternoon nap will be in my future.
Next week they say we should be in the low 80s all week so I plan to take advantage of the nice days and get out and get my exercise, walking or riding my bike around the park here.
I hope you all have a RELAXING Sunday!

Counting at least 3 things every day that I'm thankful for. There is truly is always something to be thankful for.
8318. for a great party thanks to DS#6 and his wife
8319. for a beautiful day to be outside
8320. for grandchildren that give it their all
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!

Thankful for another week we all kept safe and helathy. So nice to see my family not only surviving but thriving.
Wow, I LOVE that cake! And the Egyptian theme! Remember the song, "Walk Like An Egyptian'? Hope they sang that and danced too!
So joyful, I love your posts. God bless you and your family. x
Looks like such a fun party, love the pyramid cake - very creative! Glad you had a great time with family. Enjoy your restful day today :)
What a cool cake! Those girls are getting so tall, aren't they! Looks like there was much fun to be had -- for both the young-uns and young-at-heart. Sweet!
The party looked like fun Ma and what a cute idea with the theme and the cake! Hadn't seen a pyramid cake before!! I bet it felt good to have as many family as could be there celebrating and catching up and just being TOGETHER!
