Sunday June 15 was the “perfect Father’s Day”.
First let me say that anyone who feels “sorry” for my dear darling hubby because he has six daughters needs to think again. This man is one very pampered Dad! For weeks the girls have been planning and scheming and continuing to come up with more ideas to [...]
…..all that remains is the marriage (ok the pictures too!).
Yesterday we attended the wedding of a young lady very dear to our hearts. Vicki Botello came into our lives as a seventh grade student where Dan was the Principal. She was a bright, vivacious junior higher who was filled with the love and joy of the [...]
Growing up, especially in my teenage and early college years, Valentines Day was a time to either enjoy the attentions of a specific young man or to pine away or even pout that there was no special valentine on the horizon. Of course I always enjoyed the specially picked cards and yummy heart shaped boxes of [...]
It was rainy & cold this afternoon as we prepared for our weekly Tea Time Tuesday – so we decided to do it around the fireplace in the living room. It was cozy and warm and very relaxing as we sipped our tea and ate fresh baked peanut butter cookies and chocolate truffles (well at [...]
It’s been over a week since I have sat down to do any blogging….not for a lack of things to share….they are buzzing around in my head continually…so beware if I get “on a roll” soon you may be inundated with posts sharing all that has been happening lately!
But despite all the craziness surrounding me [...]
I am still sitting at this peaceful tea table surrounded by the low lights of the candles and listening to the soothing sounds of classical music. What a refreshment.
Today at tea we continued to read “When God Writes Your Love Story”. This chapter was about God’s love - his perfect, unconditional, unchanging love. The type of love [...]
Ahhhhhhhh….to just STOP whatever I am currently doing and walk away from the never ending “to do list” that is truly one of the best things about our weekly Tea Time Tuesday. It is a time to just relax, to just enjoy life, to just “be” instead of “do”, to breathe in deeply, to sit down with loved ones [...]
After a fairly crazy few days….the thought of sitting down and enjoying tea with my girls was very appealing today. Since we had officially decorated for fall over the weekend, we anticipated an autumn atmosphere with all the beautiful fall colors adorning our table.
We even were blessed to get wonderful mugs with fall leaves on them [...]
The weather in Stockton has finally begun to cool down so we decided to have our Tuesday tea on the back porch today. It was lovely and we all enjoyed the fresh air. In celebration of Rebekah’s birthday we had one of her favorites – blueberry scones – yummy! We continued on with our courtship classes [...]
Today we had a wonderful surprise – guests for tea! Our dear friends Amy & Kylie Williams stopped by this afternoon and we quickly added another table and invited them to enjoy tea with us. We served peach & english breakfast tea with our Peppridge Farms fancy cookies as we enjoyed relaxing & fellowshipping with one [...]
Every Tuesday afternoon, the girls (who are still homeschooled) and I have tea….complete with the nice china teacups, golden spoons, fancy table settings, cookies & classical music playing. We have a wonderful hour of relaxation, conversation and learning about manners, courtship, and being a woman after Gods own heart.
“Sir Daniel Guy” joined us this [...]
