Yesterday, an important day for Henry


Mary sent us an e-mail a few days ago and let us know that Sunday, May 5, Henry would be making first communion.  We were so thankful to know about his big day.  It is difficult to miss those important times in the lives of the grandchildren.  When we called him yesterday and talked with him he said it was a special day!! As one can see the first picture was taken a few years ago but the bottom was taken Easter weekend.  Big change but same sweet smile and such a handsome guy.  Grandpa wonders what God has in store for such a good guy.
The last few days have been rainy.  Thursday-Saturday we had around 3 inches of rain.  Things looked green but for sure now they will be green green green.
Yesterday we went to the People of Praise Community Meeting.  They had a slide show of people and things way back in the late 70's and 80's.   Terry and I stayed after the meeting a bit as they had a video of a theater gig they did in 81.  It was so fun.  And I should say informative too.  We found out what Eve's phone number was in the garden.  ADAM 8 1 2.   With that number it must have been a cell phone!!!  But it was fun to see what went on 30 years ago. 
For the week we are planning to get the driveway patched up and continue to plan how to fit the camper as two weeks from today we will be headed to South Bend, Georgia, Canada, the great lakes and back home in 12 days or so.  Terry will have the BIG birthday on our trip and am counting on her grandson Sam to help plan how to celebrate on the 27 as we will be at Kim's place.
We had a bit of water in the basement yesterday, maybe a gallon or so but some things got wet.  We took the time to clean some, recycle some and order some things. It was not what we had planned for half of the day but it was good to get some things done.
No, it is almost 7:00 which means I need to put the water pot on, grind some coffee for the french press and even venture outside to make sure I get the recycling out in time.
