Marvelous Monday

I KNOW it's Tuesday - but there you have it. LOL

Debbie and the boys came over to celebrate Labor Day with us yesterday. A hem - I came up with yet another creative, easy, hospitality idea. I made a salad. Debbie and I ran to the deli and picked up chicken, salads, rolls, french bread, and desserts. ::snort::
If that weren't bad enough I roped her into helping me make two slides to be used on base and in our contemporary service advertising women's ministry (PWOC). I also had her help me find the "official" word on "See Ya at the Flagpole".
The older boys played games.....Scottie and Cy were the last ones standing....
Jared and Mikey played Mill Bournes with the younger three - so nice of them to do that.
Later, Mike kept the Turbo Three occupied while the boys played Monopoly...

And I trimmed Stacia's bangs, while Debbie captured it on film. The only thing missing was STEVE - but he's close in our thoughts, hearts, and prayers.

I love the "comb in mouth" while cutting Stacia's hair LOL.

Sounds like you had a great day! Yep, hospitality does not have to be hard. You're inspiring me. Now, if we could just find people to come over! I'm becoming tired of being told no.......

Yeah, Debbie thought that was funny too.

I love it when we have friendships that reach the point where we can do more than just sit and visit while they are hre.. not that that's bad, but it's sure nice to have friends to go about our day with.

Great photo of you cutting Stacia's hair. Ten pounds or no, D, you look good!

How wonderful to have such good friends and now you will be able to minister to Debbie as she did for you when Mike was gone. It will make it even more special that you will know the things that helped so much.
