We managed to arrive at Jon and Dawn's arround 1:00am Friday night after leaving Maynard's at around 8:30 that morning. We certainly didn't break any records getting there. Frequent stops and a few wrong turns were part of the journey. The big holdup was a tractor trailer wreck on I-65 in AL. I think it even caught fire. No wonder it stopped traffic for about an hour!
The following day was simply gorgeous. Bright sunshine with temps near 70. We spent some of the day working on a big pile of trees that were destroyed during the hurricanes that took place around here the past few years. A big fire was started to burn up most of them.
We really enjoyed church this morning with the service being about Christmas. We enjoyed the message that spoke of Joseph cooperating with the plan of God that brought Jesus into the world. The challenge was given that we need to allow God to invade our lives to bring about His purpose. Sometimes our plans/goals can get in the way of what God wants to do in our lives. Joseph surely had ideas/plans that got interrupted or at least put on hold.
Here are a few highlights.....
Plenty of games to play...
Even a rook game broke out...
The traditional jigsaw puzzle was under way...
And of course plenty of great southern food! This was called "southwest soup".
The bonfire...
A beautiful sunset...
