Your invited to join me on my banquet tour adventures!

First I start with a few,fun, fall, home shots.

Gracie and Deborah Play Probe.While we were at a local Baptist Church to see th Collensworth family sing, we also witnessed the Church choir. I was so, so thrilled but this darling devote elderly lady (in the lavender.) that looked as though she could barely stand or sing...but she did both! :) so sweet!Notice the missing tooth and the one that looks as though it will fall out any minute. (This tooth is now missing also! :))Also notice that this girl is still in flip flops! :) She was the only one born in the south of our family, and she remains true! :)The library is one of my favorite places to be. I oft go and check out bunches of big photography, gardening, makeover, cosmetic, napkin folding, decorating, or cook books there. One of my most recent stacks: (The book at the top inspired me to the point of making avocado chocolate pudding for supper one night. You can't taste the green avocado as apposed to the dark cocoa. The boys were a bit surprised I so freely let them have the sugery sweetness. Also note that Deborah made a silly cooking mistake so didn't turn out as planned. :o)


Now we head to the western banquets...


The boys cheering Gracie on as she rode the childrens go-carts on our family day off.I also played this entertaining game for the first time with my brothers. First time: every man for himself (Note...Deborah lost dreadfully!), Second time: Derek and Kyle on a team, Eugene and I on a team. (Note...Eugene and Deborah dominated the game! :) Because of a few helpful big little brother tips. :)) It did look a bit silly though to see my white veil glowing with a gun in hand...didn't feel very Mennonite and non-resistant. ;)They often take Deborah's camera for such shots...Brother...It's amazing what you find during "sound check." :) Meagen found a sumbraro....At the beginning of this trip I purposed to collect a leaf every place we stopped. Why? To learn leaves...to have a memorie...to support I love Lucy but not put my dad through dragging rocks along in our undercompartments across the states! :) The boys put this all up and all back down every night...bless em.. On a special night, we got to stay in a motel. I enjoyed the internet time it provided! Screen reads; " Grace is loved." This was lunch banquet, which often are so fun because we are all so silly from getting up early, setting up etc. So the boys played for a few minutes during the service.You may wonder why Grace is in a robe at a banquet? I can totally understnad your question, we were just done with our "Father son" skit, and the robe is Grace's outfit.Touchdown..Grace, Meagan, and Deborah take a quick shot. So glad to have Meagen along on banquet tour. She keeps it very fun-filled and interesting.Gracie lint rolling the tabelcloths.Me and Meagen pose with the discount cart. After this two week trip I was So ready to be home! I have more pictures, but didn't put them all on. Had good times with friends and family in Ohio as well as P.A. But by the last night I crawled under the Cd table and took a nap during the service. Tired and, a but ready to be away from people. So now we are home and enjoying having my Dad's family for Thanksgiving...more on that later.
...We missed Austin on this tour. Lots of tears. Thank the Lord for allowing Duanes to Be with us in P.A. It was a blessing.

There's a promise coming down your dusty road.

This powerful song was sang everynight on our midwest banquet tour. It gives me goose-bumps when I hear it sung. Megan decided that these dear Nabraskins could turely relate to Jesus coming down their "dusty road". :) So as I was walking these dusty roads I found a rusty old truck. After a long walk and getting ready for the service I got my camera and asked Megan to be my photo object along with the truck...That day Megan found Wal Mart glasses...dear me...only She. :) I do believe she pulls them off better then most! ;) When I looked through my view finder to take this picture I BURST OUT LAughing! :)God invented Sepia before the editing programs, the sun does it perfectly...
