Shopping in Denison

Up early and so donut time came and we were ready to get Grands. the came running down the lane. Anabel first, Evan and you can see Brooks in the back. It was Anabel's turn to sit with us. After church was a quarterly business meeting and then we went to Denison to get supplies. A chainsaw, case, extra blade, gas tank, 4 tiki candle holders, In the afternoon we napped, Then Denny worked on the doors for the CSA shed. I took Cooks share to them along highway 20. Boy is that road busy. When I got home I mowed and Denny cleaned the house. It is so great to have it clean. He does a great job. Note from Elizabeth: Our church worship team led us in a memorable evening of singing and beautiful music tonight. From the moment I walked in the sanctuary, tears were in my eyes: -A certain red-shirted boy was dancing up toward the band, unable to hide any of his precious joy. -A little babe wiggling her shoulders to the music on her momma's lap. -Sweet children everywhere, closely watching the faces of those singing, and joining in their own childlike ways. -Older adults with hands upturned gently. -Hurting ones with eyes closed during tender lyrics. -Certain words from certain songs scrawled in the dark into my journal. -The entire room, the most beautiful masterpiece. What a blessed time. ("Stronger"- Hillsong and "Holy Spirit"- Francesca Battistelli are the 2 songs from this evening that have been most memorable in recent days. I'll keep singing them in my head, even above the NBA Finals theme playing on repeat in my house this week!) Smiling still tonight. So grateful for our precious church and our very present God. (Thank you, Stuart, Leah, Brad-Sarah, Sandy, Rita, Stephen, Barry, and everyone else involved!)
