Sunday Seven
Sunday Seven is a weekly meme, used to share 7 things that we are grateful for in our lives. Seven positives, if you will! If you would like to play along, make up your list, and go HERE to let us know!
1. Even though Pastor Mack was sitting in for Pastor Paul today (who is in New York baptizing his 2nd grandson), we still had a good sermon, very relevant... he preached on Prayer and being a child of God. Okay... I concede... sometimes it IS good to have a visiting Pastor! :)
2. Even though none of the songs were Matt Redman today, the music at church was FABULOUS! Needless to say, these first two combined, got my day off to a nice start!
3. Derek had a gOOd interview / test with the Carpenters Local this week. He came home feeling fairly confident - which is excellent for him!!!
4. The weather this weekend has been spectacular! 72 yesterday. 68 today! Just gorgeous weather to be outside! In addition to that we have had a couple of night storms this week that have watered us well and greened things up! Nice to see green for a little while before Winter comes! :)
5. Wednesday night Bible study started back up this week! We are going to be doing a Max Lucado study on Hebrews! I'm very excited about this one!
6. I went and did a weeeee little bit of shopping for that little girl grandbaby! I got her a Dora doll and two little "twin" dolls that go with her. I really need to study up on the whole "Dora thing"... I'm completely Dora challenged! I also got her two little outfits, 2 fleece hoodies, and a couple of puzzles. WHAT FUN!!!
7. Amanda & Hector have made the decision to go to Texas for Thanksgiving instead of Christmas! This means that my Lucy Luz (above stated grandbaby) will be coming home with them on NOVEMBER 27th ... and I will have her for Christmas!!! Praise the Lord! (and I didn't even have to suggest it!!!) God is sO good!

YIPPPPEEEEEEE! I am SO happy you will have that precious little girl with you for Christmas. What fun you will have.
Now, about Dora. She is a big hit with the little ones. She and her cousin Diego have their OWN show and they speak English and Spanish. The twins are her little brother and sister. I learned all this through my DIL little niece who actually LOOKS a little like Dora. You, Daisy and I can compare notes on buying 'stuff' for our little girls!!!
JOY, JOY, Oh JOY!!!!!!!

one of my lectures last week was by Max lucado... he was awesome... He did it on FAcing your Giants...
it makes me neurotic when people say they have been christmas shopping already... bec. I'm such a procrastinator about it....

I enjoy my holidays, so many things have changed. I even think it was another person who stayed here ! I was 24 when I saw the Garda lake for the first and 44 for the last time ! Imagine 20 years I haven't seen "my lake" ! I see the reputation of Italian men even swapped over to the States, lol ! So far I was only kissed and hugged and strangled from friends ! Age is also an advantage, I can go everywhere ALONE without a bunch of boys behind me !

Oh, how I envy you that weather. WE have much colder over here. Today we're lucky, we have 53F and a bit sun.
How much fun to buy things for the little girl!!!
