Love a Good Sale!

Mother's Day, right after the a.m. service, we left for Branson, MO for a Minister's Retreat. As we usually do, we stayed in a cabin at Big Cedar. It is so relaxing and comfortable. The management spoils you with a newspaper and freshly baked cookies everyday.

The shopping in Branson is awesome. There are always sales going on. I found as much as 70 percent off with an additional 30 percent taken off at the register. In my books, that's a good deal!

My husband's brother and sister-in-law drove up from Alabama to spend four days with us. What fun we had together -- lots of laughs. We saw a some shows and had a great time. Family is a blessing from God!

Life at the parsonage -- grateful.
