Dinner at Rose with LCS Friends

A beautiful night, dinner at Rose's on Reeds Lake. Laurie, Mary, Merri, and Carol and I caught up with each other's lives! We all worked together at Kelloggsville Christian School and since KCS merged with CCS and became Legacy Christian we have all faced some changes in our lives. We all feel very blessed the way God has worked in our lives and also that we can share good times together. Laurie will soon be working full time as a LCS kindergarten teacher and her son, Mike is engaged and getting married next summer. Mary is a great 4th grade teacher at LCS and is enjoying her new role as a grandma! Merri is an awesome 2nd grade teacher at LCS and is getting married this summer - we are so excited for Merri. Carol is a talented music teacher who now works for the Holland Christian Schools. She has become a grandmother also! They were wanted to know how my new job was going and how my life has changed while being a grandma, too. It was great to catch up with each others lives and to see how God is working and living in each of us! It was an awesome visit!

Louie Party II

A group of us have started a new group, called "Louie Group". We began at Lynn and Bob's for salad and appetizers (which were delicious) and then we headed off to Don and Ruthie's for main course, a wild game of BUNCO, followed by a great dessert!

Cheryl and Cal were the WINNERS and they get to take a talking Louie home until the next time we meet and the winners get the prize. We had a lot of fun, great fellowship, and of course -- great food! Our next party will be in October!

An interesting day......

As most of you know I started a new job recently, and I am the type of person who always looks for interesting tidbits in my day. My job consists of registering new moms for childbirth classes, tours of the birthing center, encouraging people to take classes that will help them live healthier lives, etc. so............my first caller was a woman who had the same birthday I have, the second caller was a woman named Suzanne, the next caller was a girl named, Jennifer and her husband's name was Nick, ok so that was in the morning.......this afternoon I had a call from a person whose address was on Badger Ave. (the street I grew up on when I was young), and to end the day I had a call from a young girl whose last name was Holt. I was really wondering if this all had some kind of meaning???? Well, when I got home, a good friend from high school called and guess what? Her and I were born on the same day of the same year?! What is going on? I always try to analyze things like this -- any ideas why all these coincidences on the same day? I need help with this one.......
