Scenes From Our Week - Week 7


This weekend was our annual Jones Family Christmas.  My mom and her four sisters get together with all their children and grandchildren every year.  We usually get together in November before the rush of the holiday season.  Plus, the weather usually cooperates better for all the travelers.  We rent out a place, this year renting the Beulahland Bible Camp and moving in for the weekend.  Enjoy the photos from the Christmas as well as from our church choir on Sunday.  Have a wonderful week celebrating Thanksgiving and all you have to be thankful for.

Sunday morning's breakfast included a smoothie shop run by the kids!
They had a blast coming up with their own menu and even earning tips!

The sisters in their new sparkly visors! Eileen, Cynthia, Susan, Kathy, and my mom, Tricia
Aunt Susie was the host this year, so she was super busy with breakfast prep and hadn't changed clothes yet!

My loot this year from the gift exchange! YUM!!!

The Goodbye Hug

Whoops!  Keys locked in my cousin's car. 
The men tried to get them out, but unfortunately they had to call a locksmith. 
Our parish choir debuted on Sunday afternoon at our special Thanksgiving service.
 It has been such a joy to be a part of it.  We'll be singing again on Christmas Eve.
