Go Ye Into All The World - Keepers Missionary Event

Last week the Keepers at Home and Contenders of the Faith Clubs hosted an evening commemorating missionaries.  Each member was given a tri-fold display board to fill with interesting facts and pictures of their missionary and they were asked to prepare a 3-5 minute speech about the missionary they chose.

Each family in the club brought a snack to share after the speeches.

 

It was a very special evening commemorating missionaries who gave and are giving their lives to spread the gospel around the world.

~ Catching Up ~

Hello faithful blog readers!  I guess you all are wondering why I haven't been posting here of late...

 

 ...In the beginning of October I went to Quebec, Canada on a rode trip with two of my friends.  We went to Montreal and Shawinigan for the weekend for special meetings.  It was great to meet new friends and to hang out with ones we hadn't seen in a while!

 

Back in PA we had a family over for dinner one night who has a baby only two weeks younger than Benjamin.  It was so cute to see the two little men visit :)

 

 

 This past weekend I flew out to Arizona and surprised Joanna for her 16th birthday!  Juliana picked me up at the airport and we drove down to Benson and met up with Joylin and Joanna.   Joanna was really surprised to see me all the way in Arizona! :D We had so much fun during my stay... hiking in the Cochise Stronghold, smashing pennies at the tracks, taking care of horses and dogs, learning to drive manual, driving the quad with four screaming girls in the dark, and so many more great memories!

 

 While I was in Arizona, my Mom's Aunt Joyce and Uncle Jack came over for the day...

  

 ...and of course this post needs a few pictures of our little guy!  Benjamin is growing like crazy! 

He brings such joy to our home with his adorable coos and smiles :)

 

 So that is what we've been up to here lately!

I also have another post coming soon about a recent event our Keepers at Home club hosted.

Thanks for checking my blog!  God bless...

:: friends are the flowers in the garden of life ::

We've had a few friends over this month for fellowship so here are some pictures...

 



 Sister Mary came from Washington D.C. one morning for breakfast.

 

 David loves showing off his little brother! :)

 

 Brother Al and Sister Nora from Jasper were passing through with the Palmers so we had them over one evening for supper.

 

 Brother & Sister Palmer were on their 50th wedding anniversary trip.

 

 Dad's cousin, Christy, is visiting from Arkansas so we had Uncle Ron, Aunt Carol, and her over one afternoon.

 

 Aunt Carol rocking Benjamin while Chris plays the piano...she is very talented!

 

 She also kept us entertained with funny stories :D
