Sunday Seven ...
Sunday Seven is a meme designed to give thanks for the BIG or little things in our life. The "stuff" that makes up life... the happenings of your week. God blesses us in SO many ways each week - it's really good to stop and think about it! Gives ya just a weeee bit more appreciation ... reminds you to praise Him! If you would like to play along, make your list and stop by HERE to let them know!1. We got Krysti safely delivered up to New York to her college. She is settling nicely, meeting lots of new friends, having a ton of fun, and so far misses nobody! :) This is all good!
2. Dennis and I have had a lot of time "together" this week. Of course, the travel time up to NY and back - but the kids left at home have been busy, and we've had some quiet time together HERE too!
3. We have been blessed with some rain this week! We can still use mOre - but we have had some! And that more MAY be coming today! We hope!
4. We are so thankful that our Derek, despite his stupidity, is still with us, and that only his car and the telephone pole are suffering. I'm so thankful that it was a telephone pole he hit and not another car! God really does love that boy - even when it doesn't seem like it!
5. WE have decided that tomorrow is THE day that we are both getting back to seriously losing weight! Enough is enough!
6. The new music director at church is being sO welcomed by the whole congregation! I am so happy! I can't wait to get there this morning to see what he will have for us today!
7. Today begins the new Sunday School season. The late service moves back to 11:00 a.m. to allow room for Bible studies at 10:00. I'm joining one focusing on the Sermon On The Mount, and I'm excited about it!

Was there any doubt that God loves Derek? Hope you and Dennis are enjoying your together time. You go girl...happy cycling.
Hope your worship service was glorious and that you are enjoying Sunday School.

Good luck on the diet. Love the dumpy jumpy lady on the side bar.
Happy early birthday if I don't get back here. Hope you have an exciting day.

I hope Derek is doing okay after hitting that telephone pole.
Congrats on recommitting to your diet.
I'm glad Krysti is doing well in college.

Besides the incident or accident with Derek you had a nice week ! Of course it's a rough time with a growing up boy I could write a whole book about it and really never wish to live this again. But the result was worthwhile now I have a nice boy or man.
As Mar said in her comment : if they don't do it when they are teenagers when should they do it ? You will see he will be the best driver in the whole state and never make an accident when he is grown up !
