Just being with Mamo

Sister's just cookin'
What a blessing that they have each other.
"Caught ya Miss Lally peeking around the corner
"I like your chair too Papa!"

Today the girls stayed with me while Marla tried to do a little more at the "new" house. Moving day for them will begin on Friday. Thank you Lord that moving for me is OVER....at least for a year or so.:)


The girls had a good time here and I'll be happy when they have become a little more adjusted to the new place and can rest better here.


Vic went to Our Lady to pick up lil Victor so Marla did not have to stop and break her stride. On the way, he picked up Nana so she could go with him and see him at dismissal. She was thrilled to see him and even happier that he was elated to see her. They came back here and joined us to wait for Marla and then we ventured out to Cracker Barrel for dinner. Maybe after I return from Fla. for a some much needed r. and r. I can get into some fall cooking.


Enjoy the pix and stay tuned for Samuel Joseph as he arrives Thurs.. Joe and Meredith are doing their annual fall Powers trip. My time IS COMING!!!!


Just kidding.....I love my babies, I'm just getting old!


Life is good.

The Loss of a dear friend.

On July 3 a dear, dear friend of ours, Chips Cronen returned to Heaven. He will be missed. We pray and ask for prayers for his wife Barbra and sons.
I came across this scripture that seems to be appropriate for Chips, it reads from Ephesians 6: 16-18
"At all times carry faith as a shield; for with it you will be able to put out all the burning arrows shot by the evil one. And accepting salvation as a helmet, and the word of God as the sword which the Spirit gives you. Do all this in prayer, asking for God's help. Pray on every occassion, as the Spirit leads. For this reason keep alert and never give up; pray always for God's people."

This is just one thought that gives "light" to the life of Chips Cronen. He was truly a prayer warrior. I've counted on his prayers many times and will continue to do so..
