I sure hope that your May has kicked off to a good start. The heat is settling in quick around our parts. We've kicked off May with watching our softball girls win the District. Next week we start another round of ball. It's so much fun to watch these girls and especially our girl, Mallory. She plays centerfield. We were so proud of both teams that played against each other. They all, hand in hand gathered together as one of our girls prayed for the game and also for one of our young men that was in a horrific car accident and fighting. His name is Kaden if you can think to lift him up to our Lord. I had the opportunity recently to speak to a group of women at a ladies luncheon event at a local church. Oh we had so much fun. I wished I had gotten pictures of the beautiful decorations. We had a TEA PARTY and we each kept the cup that we drank out of it. Isn't she just lovely? Easter has come and gone but we sure have a great time with family. We gather each...
It's Sunday afternoon and my tribe has left after a wonderful and breezy afternoon. The youngest two grands made friends with a baby bird today and was so sad when they had to let it go.
We attended a dance recital for these two littles. They both done so good. It was so bright outside and we were all squinting in pictures.
The girls had a fan club for sure. Marty and I are blessed that our family always supports one another. Just BLESSED y'all. Just blessed!
Marty enjoys coffee cakes and breads with his morning coffee on his way to work so I baked a yummy cranberry & orange coffee cake with drizzled icing. It smelled amazing baking. I think I might have a slice in the morning. LOL!
The month of May was National Physical Fitness & Sports month so we ladies finished up strong. We added extra workouts to our yoga classes in different areas and well, let me just say, "I found a few muscles that I didn't know I had". LOL!
I hope that JUNE has kicked off for you all in a wonderful way and that you are anticipating some summer fun. In closing today I will share another devotional that seems most of us "busy" people might need to ponder on.
Hugs and blessings, Cindy
Hi Cindy, I enjoyed all your pictures. I bet the dance recital was fun! That coffee cake looks so yummy! That is great that your yoga ladies are adding more to your routine. It must be fun working out together! Love your Bible verse and Focus board. Have a great week!
ReplyDeleteThanks Susan. We ladies have a great time working out together.
DeleteThank you for this wonderful post, full of love and joy and encouragement! I needed the devotional reminder and thank you for sharing it. Oh, I do hope that baby bird was OK. What kind of bird was it....and where was its mother, I wonder? That coffee cake sure looks and sounds good. Now I would love to have a piece of that with my cup of tea! Yes, summer is here, and I pray it will be a summer of peace and love and joy!! Take care my friend. Always so wonderful to hear from you.
ReplyDeleteOh yes, baby wren was fine. Just needed a little TLC from the grands. Have a great week friend.
DeleteHappy June Cindy! You are living life to the fullest as usual and family is everything isn't it. I hope you have another wonderful week!

Thanks Jenna.
DeleteWonderful photos. I really miss having my littles in dance and going to the recitals. One went on to a dance team at her school that performed before all the games (before the cheerleaders did their thing). She decided not to do it this year and I miss seeing her perform. They won all kinds of national awards . I know you love being part of your family 'team', too.
ReplyDeleteI hope you have a wonderful week. xo Diana
Watching these grands do what they love has truly been so rewarding. Happy June sweet friend.
DeleteLooks like a fun kick off to the new month. That coffee cake looks so delicious. I want some now! Good for you and the ladies doing your physical fitness routines and yoga!
ReplyDeleteThanks Heather Lou.
DeleteI so enjoy your posts, they always bring a smile. The pics are great and the devotion "spot on!" Bless you!
ReplyDeleteThank you dear Lea.
DeleteYou know that I would enjoy the cranberry and orange coffee cake with a cup of tea! I can't believe that we're halfway through 2023!
ReplyDeleteGirl, wish you lived nearby. I would have gladly shared with you!
DeleteP.S. I can't believe that with all that extra yoga sessions, the older lady managed to beat you to the teacup. HA!
ReplyDeleteYES, she did girl! Woman was faster than lightening! LOL!
DeleteI was going to ask what kind of bird that was but I see you already answered. The grands look thrilled to have it to hold even if it was only for a short while.
ReplyDeleteThe cranberry & orange coffee cake looks delicious! Especially with the drizzled icing. YUM!

Thanks GM.
DeleteCindy, your grandgirls are just beautiful as well as your entire family. The coffee cake looks delicious. I need a slice to go with my coffee. Wishing you a terrific week, my friend!
ReplyDeleteThanks Pam.
DeleteAwww look at those sweet girls and the supportive family! You certainly are blessed, dear Cindy. That coffee cake looks so good, and I sure would like a slice. You and your yoga friends look like a bunch of fun ladies. How nice to add in some new workout routines. Thank you for the devotions that you share. Happy June to you and your family. Love and hugs!
