My first FridayFaveFives for July. Can you believe we are halfway through the year 2022?
1. The Profeesor had a birthday on Sunday. The family enjoyed ice cream cake together. Then in the evening, since our church small group was meeting, Older Daughter brought cake and candles. Oops! No house or cabinets were burned down, but the cake had some damage.
2. We picked our first raspberries from the bushes we planted this spring! I had eaten all but three berries before I remembered to snap a photo. YUM!
3. "Extra grandsons" will be moving this weekend into their own place. But one day, the older one offered to vacuum the whole house knowing that the issues I have been having with my hands have made it difficult for me to do basic chores. What a blessing! The floors are clean!
4. A younger mom at church and in our small group wanted to meet with me for coffee and we finally connected this week. Coffee, walk along a nearby trail pushing the cutest little boy in town in his stroller, getting to know each other better. So. Good. We are planning regular weekly meet ups.
5. We are on a road trip. Again. This time we are headed south to attend a reunion with many people we worked alongside in Indonesia. This will be the first time we have seen many of them in more than 30 years. So excited! Stay tuned for updates. Eleanor has been helping with navigation.
Happy July Fourth Independence Day to all my fellow Americans!
