The Morning Glow reaches shore

The sun peeks over the horizon to usher in a new day and welcome life.

It was a joy to be up early and watch nature awaken with the dawn of a new day. It was as if all of nature was singing praises to the Father.

Eating out with Lighthouse Class

Everyone enjoys the view at the Restaurant.

Jane shares information with Robin and Lynne.

Doris and JerryLee enjoy the setting.

Martha's brother-in-law Brian and her sister Jane joined us at the Restaurant.

The food and fellowship were wonderful. It was nice to eat a great meal and

no one had to clean up or wash dishes. In addition to the great food

was excellent conversation and sharing. God is good.

More fun with Shaving Cream

WOW

Brenda and Martha shave yellow, Cindy and JerryLee shave green.

JerryLee the fantastic shaving cream applicator!

Making things hard for the other team.

OK Sue what are you planning to do with that Shaving Cream.

Sisters! Sisters!

The Shaving Cream and the Balloons

First you blow up the balloon

Martha and the blue balloon.

Then you add Shaving Cream.

Susan and Cheryll really get into the sport.

OK JerryLee, I see that shaving cream in your right hand.

Brenda lends a hand or two.

"What do you mean we are out of Shaving Cream?"

Brenda, JerryLee and Martha spray it on thick and heavy.

"Look at that Hand!" That's a winner.

ROBIN

"No you may not cheat, don't even think about cheating. You are

Christians. Now behave yourselves. Really!"

"And this is how you do it."

"I can do it too."

"Let me help you Cheryll, I know this thing comes off or opens

or something."

Robin is some woman and busy with other projects including

"Women of Faith and Operation Christmas Child".

In case we forgot to tell you...thanks Robin.

A little clean up after the fun and games.

Wild Checkers on the Porch at the Christmas House

A good old-fashioned game of checkers between JerryLee (professional checker shark) and Elaine who hasn't played checkers in 50 years took place on Saturday in Southport. The game was grueling and was watched by Martha and Sharon and a few old men sitting in chairs waiting for their wives to finish shopping. Checker after checker was crowned and advanced on the defenseless little checkers of Elaine who was preoccupied taking pictures of butterflies and wasn't paying attention to JerryLee's master moves and swift strategy.

Sharon captured this moment when the red checkers outnumbered the black four to two. It was a sad moment in checker history when Elaine finally had to concede defeat to the masterful JerryLee. A humorless little man with nothing better to do happened to comment that "it looked like an old-fashioned whupping" to him. But who asked him anyway. OK so it was a massacre.
Martha looks on as her friend of 37 years takes a whupping.
The butterflies claim that it was not their fault they were just gathering nectar.
JerryLee celebrates her win and plots for the next ambush of a likely victim.
Be afraid, be very afraid she looks mild mannered but she is one wild and crazy checker player.

"Don't say I didn't warn you." said Elaine.

Christmas House
