Thanksgiving services


We had a special Thanksgiving service tonight at church. I consisted of a testimonial time and then a short lesson from the book of Ezekiel. I took the kids for a walk this afternoon and got this picture of them standing by what we call the horse nursery. Little Jonathan, whom I have taken to calling Joe, took to the game "where's that hand" really well. He gave it a new twist which my children and other grandchildren ever did. He would jerk his hand away from mine, stand still as I kept walking and say "Hand?" We have really enjoyed their stay with us.

The plumber came back again today and worked. He put a new valve outside so we can cut the water off during the night and when we are away. He also took out the hot water heater and cut a hole in the wall behind it to see if he could determine which pipe was leaking. He could not tell for sure but is leaning toward it being the main line coming from the street. If that is so it will be a big project to fix and take two days and about $2000.00. He will be back on Monday to tear into the job.

We will rise at 7:00 in the morning and head for Henderson about 8:00. I made rolls this afternoon and they look good. It was tough to have the house smell of homemade rolls and could not eat them. Janie is in the kitchen now making a cake for tomorrow and I had better head for bed. This second picture is of the kids eating supper which consisted of salmon patties, broccoli and cheese, and sliced tomato. God bless you.
