Be diligent to know the state of your flocks, And attend to your herds; For riches are not forever, Nor does a crown endure to all generations. When the hay is removed, and the tender grass shows itself, and the herds of the mountains are gathered in, The lambs will provide your clothing, And the goats the price of a field; You shall have enough goat's milk for your food, For the food of your household, And the nourishment of your maidservants. Prov. 27:23-27

Here is Jer at our church's anual kale dinner, with his plate full of delicious borenkole, sausage, gravy and more yummy stuff.This event is put on by the young peoples, they do all the work of making the food and providing great entertainment!
Every body lining up for food...
After ward we split into groups and did a number of diferent activities, racing against the other teams. We had to make a trough to roll a marble through by holding pieces of half pipe against eachother going all the way down the hallway. We also had to contruct a play ground or a farm out of modeling clay, solve crossword puzzels and search through a bucket of corn kernals to find the letters to make up a name of a book of the Bible. The final activity was to write a 6 lined song, to a familliar tune, about the evening's dinner, and perform it! Some of the results were halarious...
This is my team, hard at work, and below is Dad's team, but he isn't in the picture.

The Savior Died, But Rose Again

The Savior died, but rose again
Triumphant from the grave;
And pleads our cause at God's right hand,
Omnipotent to save.

Who,then, can e'er divide us more
From Jesus and His love:
Or break the sacred chain that binds
The earth to Heav'n above?

Let troubles rise, and terrors frown.
And days of darkness fall;
Through Him all dangers we'll defy.
And more than conquer all.

Nor death,nor life, nor earth nor hell,
Nor time's destroying sway,
Can e'er efface us from His heart,
Or make His love decay.

~Scotish Paraphrase

I found this when I was wandering around the net, folowing unfamiliar links, and I'm glad I did! It is a paraphrase of the last part of Romans 8, a favorite of mine:)

I went away this weekend, when I met my family at church yesterday they had some news...
"You know what Karen? We got a new dog!" Surprise! Isn't she cute? She's a golden retriever about 4 months old, her name is Lady. At first we thought it should be Honey, because of her color but Mom found it hard getting used to caling a dog "Honey":) So after much discussion at supper tonight, we finaly came up with a decision.
Her eyes really aren't green, thats just the camera.
