Quotation To Remember: The un-thankful heart... discovers no mercies; but let the thankful heart sweep through the day and, as the magnet finds the iron, so it will find, in every hour, some heavenly blessings! --Henry Ward Beecher

Did You Know? - Bernie Myers was and is quite an artist. He brought Sue and Paul a card with a cardboard box gift. We had no ideas what it was but it turned a out to be a painting he did on 1944 (the year Paul was born!) It was beautiful and will be placed in a special location at our home!
Hans gives Paul a hand opening up the package!
Wow! Bernie has become a good friend over the years and we
were so very pleased to received with beautiful gift!
Paul wants to look as good as Bernie in 23 years!
Quotation To Remember:
Gratitude unlocks the fullness of life. It turns what we have into enough, and more. It turns denial into acceptance, chaos to order, confusion to clarity. It can turn a meal into a feast, a house into a home, a stranger into a friend. Gratitude makes sense of our past, brings peace for today and creates a vision for tomorrow. ~Melody Beattie
David and Greg join the fray....

Lookout tonsils here it comes!"
