recent happenings......

Sorry, I don't have any pictures for this post....I'm afraid I've been very negligent in that respect....

This last week has been very fun! Wednesday night, I spend a fun evening with my sisters during men's meeting, and got caught up on all the 'goings on' on the farm since I've been gone. And then I drove the truck home from the Davis'....that was a little scary, but Samuel has been very patient teaching me to drive stick...I am soooo blessed to have him for a husband!!!!!! 

Friday, Sam picked me up straight after work, we ate supper in the car(pizza!) and headed to Trenton for family night at the 'big' Schatte's house!!! which means a fun evening of volleyball, ice cream and a movie! :D We actually stayed the night, because Sam had to replace 3 parts on the truck, and there's a rule at the apartment that you can't work on cars in the parking lot, even though we have seen other people do it...besides, the tools were all at Dad and Mom's, and I had boatloads of fun spending the day with the girls!!! :D

Sunday was my first time to bring food to a Meal Sunday, which was kinda fun! :) and after church, we went over to Daddy & Mommy Hale's and visited and held Bobby, and caught up!!!
Monday has turned into our shopping day, so after supper, we headed out to Aldi's and WalMart, which are only a few blocks from our apartment! :) 

Tuesday, Esther, Faith and Liz came and spent the afternoon with me, and I showed them all the 'perks' of the apartment complex...which isn't very much, but it's nice to get out and walk around! :) Then, we had supper together, and headed out to GFA prayer meeting, which I always enjoy immensely! :D Uncle Fred gave the devotional, and his are always good in a prick-ish sort of way....last night he talked about resisting God's calling in your life, and how important it is to listen to the Holy Spirit's promptings....which was really neat, because that was one of Mr. Beeman's points in his sermon on Sunday! :)

I'll leave you with a few verses that have been going through my head this morning, as I've been pondering both Mr. B's and Uncle Fred's messages:

Ezekiel 22:30
And I sought for a man among them,
that should make up the hedge,
and stand in the gap before me for the land,
that I should not destroy it:
but I found none.

Psalm 106:23
Therefore he said that he would destroy them,
had not Moses his chosen stood before him in the breach,
to turn away his wrath, lest he should destroy them .


Isaiah 6:8
Also I heard the voice of the Lord, saying,
Whom shall I send, and who will go for us?
Then said I, Here am I;
send me.



Hope everyone has a very happy Wednesday!!!
Love and blessings,
Esther
