It's been a while!

I'm sorry that I haven't been posting lately. The truth is, I've been sleeping through my blogging time. We're dealing with a cold in our family, and the extra sleep was a blessing.

On Friday night, we had a family from church over for dinner. We played a game and had a lovely time of fellowship with them. We are always blessed by spending time with this family.

Sunday was a beautiful day. We went to a horse program in the evening. It was held at the softball field of the First Baptist Church in Natchez, MS. The program used the starting of two young colts as a lesson about the Christian life. It was done by Dr. David Carter, the trainer whose events we've been to in the past. We all had a nice time, and we learned some new things that will help in the training of Jasmine, the filly down the street.

On Monday, we took Bunny in to the vet for all her shots and such. Our other dogs, a border collie and a golden retriever, always attracted attention and petting because of their sweet personality and their breed. It was a new experience for us to go in and have other people move away with obvious discomfort at Bunny's presence. There were two ladies there who were scared of Bunny, in spite of her goofy sweetness and our assurances of her good nature. (A dog belonging to one of those ladies tried to bite when it was taken back. Bunny just wagged her tail and went happily.) The vet says Bunny is such a sweet dog. He also told us that she's five years old, and she has heartworms. We're praying about what to do about that.

This week, our memory verse is Psalm 100.
Make a joyful noise unto the Lord, all ye lands. Serve the Lord with gladness, come before his presence with singing. Know ye that the Lord he is God: it is he that hath made us, and not we ourselves; we are his people, and the sheep of his pasture. Enter into his gates with thanksgiving, and into his courts with praise: be thankful unto him, and bless his name. For the Lord is good; his mercy is everlasting; and his truth endureth to all generations. Psalm 100 KJV

  1. Oh my! Heartworms. Hope she is a candidate for treatment. It can sometimes be hard on them. Gram
