Welcome all our blog readers. We have had a good Sunday. In the morning, we went to church. (Which is a small group of Christian families gathering in Grassy Lake, which is a town about 15 minutes West of us)
One of the families (for those of you who know us it was Peter and Margaret) that moved away two years ago was in church this morning. He shared his testimony which was very interesting. We had fellowship meal afterward. Some of the children did some drawing and the boys played outside.

Some of the children found a mouse that was acting very funny so one of the men took it outside. |
One of the ladies told the story of one man who wrote a hymn. When he was a boy growing up, he would always say things in rhythm, often interrupting their devotions. But he couldn't help it, things just came out in rhyme. One day in devotions he was watching a mouse climb up a rope. (I guess it happened more often back then.) And just like that he said. "The mouse for want of better stairs, went up a rope to say his prayers." His father in frustration told him that if he made one more rhyme during devotions he would get a spanking. Without even thinking he goes, "Oh father please some mercy take, and I will no more verses make." He just made another rhyme but I don't know if he got a spanking.

We didn't have any plans after fellowship, so we went cruising in the country. In one field we saw two moose. We had never seen any moose here before so we enjoyed it. But it isn't something so special anymore because they are trying to "plant" them here. Who cares if it isn't supposed to be special, we still thought it was.
We didn't have anything else planned, so we spent the evening around the fire.
