Beautiful Saturday

Wow another gorgeous day in Michigan. Wonderful weather for a holiday weekend.  Well it is college football's kickoff Saturday and as a faithful U of Michigan fan, we are watching the football game with them and Utah..as of the half time Michigan isn't doing too good but I still watch them, win or lose.  They have a new coach this year and it's been known as a rebuilding year...the U of Michigan campus is only about 45 minutes from us.  Outside of watching the game and doing some laundry, it's been a lazy day...just enjoying the nice day.thpluto1

Wednesday..the 27th of August!

Another beautiful day in Michigan..low humidity and lots of sunshine!! It's just gorgeous!! I have been up to the church and wrote out the bills..did some other book work and then went to the bank and post office before coming home. Now I am trying to get motivated to go to the grocery store and do some much needed shopping!! thshop4

Yesterday I spent the afternoon visiting my best friend who was diagnosed with stomach cancer about a week ago..she is handling it well..by trusting in the Lord and she has lots of people praying for her. Her surgery is next Wed and we are all believing for a successful surgery and a complete healing.

Not much else going on here..our anniversary is coming up the 7th of September and we may take another mini trip to Mackinac Island for a couple days to celebrate.. it will be our 51st anniversary!! Wow I must be getting old!!

Praying you are all having a blessed day!! downloadmuminchair
