Family Blessings
Carol setting out supper with Panteli
over behind at the barbecue.
Everyone one takes turns going in and out of the pool.
As soon as you come out you dry off and feel hot again.
Morgan is busy making bracelets.
She is getting better and better and
was making Sandra one when I left.
Dad and Morgan trying to decide what to eat.
Ben still in the pool snorkeling. Randy and James try to give him a hard time and even close off his air.
Sunday dad and I went to church to find out the true meaning of Israel is to mean chosen to be a nation not of warriors but worshipers who will struggle with God, like Jacob did. I believe that this is a struggle or the path that I am on. This is a humbling thought for us all. Many questions and no answers.
Dad and I hurried to Tssawwassen after church to see Ben at the skate board park where there was a contest. There were some very cool dudes there. Ben enjoyed it even when he did not win.
We stayed to watch some baseball and Carol and Panteli wanted us to stay for supper but the heat and our age made us too tired. I know I felt bad but we have to admit we are getting old.
There will always be questions that call to us as seekers
who if we are open will feel the touch of the Holy Spirit.
Answers to prayers that are simple conversation with God
have the potential to transcend logical explanations.
I am thankful for the gift of curiosity! ! I am thankful for all the good years we have had!

As I was paddling my way across the bay yesterday trying to avoid all of the speeding boats I was thinking maybe I am getting to old for this stuff my self! But we made it safe and sound, though we were all tired out and glad to come home and jump in the pool. If you guys are home this morning maybe we will pop by for a visit? Sandra
That looks like quite a paddle - remember in only a short 20 years you will have caught up to us!!
Do it NOW I think is the answer - good on all of you.
What bay ? Hopefully the water was warmer than it was last year when I swam at cresent beach. It was frezzing.
