Have some extra time this morning?

Now we know what's behind this. ; )

I was saddened to hear about the death of Lee of the famed Ted and Lee. It’s quite sad and very shocking. Please keep his family in your prayers.

Watch one of their skits here.

I didn't get any super shots on Saturday (like I ever get any!) but this puppy was cute.



And, one more flag photo...



The LORD will fulfill his purpose for me;
your love, O LORD, endures forever—
do not abandon the works of your hands.
Psalm 138:8 NIV

Well, we're headed out this morning to provide the PA for the service at the cemetery. It's cloudy, and threatening rain at the moment. Yesterday I was listening to an old man tell the story of his dad who died in a sub in World War 1. It has come to my attention before but it struck me, people have died so I can have freedom. What a precious gift. How even more precious is the sacrifice of Jesus, who died to free me from sin! What wondrous love is this.


(I saw this at Echo's site and wanted to post it here. Hope you don't mind, Echos.)

God Of Our Fathers

God of our fathers - whose Almighty hand
Leads forth in beauty all the starry band
Of shining worlds in splendor through the skies -
Our grateful songs before Thy throne arise.

Thy love divine has led us in the past;
In this free land by Thee our lot is cast;
Be Thou our ruler, guardian, guide and stay,
Thy Word our law, Thy paths our chosen way.

From war's alarms, from deadly pestilence,
Be Thy strong arm our ever sure defense.
Thy true religion in our hearts increase,
Thy bounteous goodness nourish us in peace.

Refresh Thy people on their toilsome way;
Lead us from night to never-ending day.
Fill all our lives with love and grace divine,
And glory, laud and praise be ever Thine.

This is my 276th post with Blogger.

Aaaand...it's face lift time!

Tomorrow we’re starting MIXDOWN! Wouldn’t it be fun if we actually finished a few songs? I think so.

Here are a few photos from Dad’s birthday party…



I didn’t get any good shots of dad playing. My silly Dimage has a lovely little shutter delay making action shots hard.



Dad’s cake was the same one Daniel created the recipe for in March, and it was very good. : D The only variation was leaving the cherries on the side. ; )



Someone thought it would be cute to dump their Christmas tree in our property so we had a fun time placing pieces of it on fire and watching fire shoot into the air. I guess we are easy to entertain. : P

All in all we had an enjoyable time. :)

Cast your cares on the LORD
and he will sustain you;
he will never let the righteous fall.
Psalm 55:22 NIV
