An Absolutely Lovely Day

What a lovely day we had today! We were up early and drove the 90 or so miles to Menno for church. It is always so good to be there to worship with our church family in person, not just via U-Tube.

Our friends Dennis and Katherine have been wanting to get together for a long visit. So we made arrangements to meet them after church in Moses Lake. We went to Michael's on the Lake, where Kay had gotten us a table on the deck overlooking the lake. We had some delightful salads for lunch along with innumerable glasses of ice tea. We had such a good time visiting, catching up and exchanging ideas and thoughts. I can hardly believe we talked for FOUR hours. And I think we probably could have chatted for another three or four...

From the restaurant we went over to visit for a bit with Brother Pat and Cindy. Nephew Nick had the day off and Great-nephews Carter and Case were staying with PopPop and Grandma while their parents were playing in a volleyball tournament. I should have had my camera so I could show you the gorgeous patio they have put in using various sizes of paver bricks. It is much bigger then I thought it would be and it is so pretty! We ended up staying for dinner and initiating the new patio after I helped Pat pick green beans from his garden (brought some home too!). Niece Becky and David showed up in time to enjoy dinner as well -- in spite of their very sore muscles.

A truly excellent day!
