Alaskan Slip N Slide

For the first time in a week I have seen the sun!  What a perfect first day of summer!  It was WARM and sunshiny!  I am even a little sunburned!  Thank you Lord for such an amazingly beautiful day.  Today was one of those days that make the long Alaskan winters so very worth it!

My neighbor called and asked if the children wanted to play in the slip-n-slide.  I was unaware they had one.  She explained that she had an Alaskan slip-n-slide and it was going to be a great time!  So we headed down the road.  To make one AWESOME slip-n-slide all you need is a big tarp, stakes, liquid soap, and a sprinkler.  A fun time was had by all!

Humorous Biblical Ponderings

I pose a question for you to ponder…….and chuckle at a bit…..

Suppose you were at a party where everyone was drinking.(yes, I know, you would never be there)  They ran out of beer and asked you to go and get some more.  As a Christian (question posed to my hubby “as a pastor”) would you do so?

Before answering, consider John chapter 2 verses 1-12….

Hmmmmm, Jesus’ first miracle, turning water to wine in the middle of a party…..

In a Splint…

Sledding was great fun!  Smiles and laughter all around….until Mom wiped out.  Rest over night.  ER the next morning.  Left arm in a splint.  Thank you, Lord, it isn’t the right hand!  No broken bones but I am now waiting to see the orthopedic doctor.  It might be damaged ligaments.  I basically have one hand now until who knows when.  So needless to say….my online life will drastically slow down for a while.  The sledding run was a blast until the crash!  ho hum……. that is the update for now.
