Spring Visit and Resurrection Sunday

The last weekend of March, I went out of town to visit with my dad and his wife.  What a great weekend it was!  I’ve wanted cowboy (girl) boots for ages and purchased some *early birthday gift to me*; we went to a couple of craft stores; ate rosemary fries; crocheted; ate pizza; played cards *313* and had wonderful fellowship.  They live just blocks from the Tulip Farm (see pic)!  It makes for a busy road but the tulips are gorgeous.

Yesterday was Resurrection Sunday and I hope you all were as blessed as me in the remembering of our Lord’s sacrificial death and rising from the grave.  What hope He gives all who believe in His life!

Acts 4:12  Salvation is found in no one else, for there is no other name under heaven given to mankind by which we must be saved.

Long Weekend

I took a few days off last week and headed down to visit my family in the Woodburn, Oregon area.  As always, I had a delightful time!

On the drive down and on the drive back, I saw three different herds of big horn sheep.  What beautiful creatures the Lord has created!

The time I am able to spend with my family is priceless.  I am always grateful for the hospitality that my Dad and Jeanine extend to me.  They are kind, gracious and giving people.  We make loose plans and are very flexible while I visit.  It is a non-stressful, relaxing time.

This visit was right in the middle of ‘tulip time’ and there is a tulip farm just down the road from my dad’s property.  With the beautiful weather on Saturday, the cars were lined up and moving slower than turtles.  Luckily we didn’t have any type of emergency.
