I am taking a day off from reminiscing about last year to write my Friday Fave Fives. Susanne is so faithful to host our weekly group of bloggers who focus on gratitude, on what good things have happened to us in the week. We choose five blessings. Some weeks, it's easy. Other weeks, we have to search our memories for those small things that made a difference in our lives. That's why we do Fave Fives-- to remind us that blessings are there every day, every week.
Edited to add the missing fave...
Here are mine:
1. Our trip to Dayton Air Force Museum to celebrate Warrior Boy's birthday. We had so much fun. Of course, we all kept getting separated when one person would stop to read an information sign and others would wander on. What did we do before we had cell phones? Here is one photo. (you may notice that I am now the shortest person in the room...)
2. (the missing one) As usual, we met with who I am now naming our Coffee Couple, T and S. A close friend of theirs joined us (we do know her, too) and the five of us had a great time. Those coffee dates always make me happy
3. Normality returns. Two Bible Studies I attend took a break over the holidays. They have resumed this week. The teen boys are back in school and we are back to being uber grandpa and grandma.
4. Safety in the snow storms. We haven't lost power. We have all we need to eat, drink and stay warm.
Our little front porch bunny is nearly covered in drifted snow.
5. My sister-in-law found an exercise program and told me about it, and it is working well for me. It's called Yes2next. Free. On You tube. The exercises keep you moving but don't overtax your body (especially if you are older). I highly recommend it.
That wraps up my Fave Fives for this week which I wrote as I was wrapped up in a warm snuggly afghan. Happy Weekend to you all!
