Apple pie without the cheese is like a kiss without the squeeze - right, Dad?

Mike and Sheri had us over for pie last night to celebrate Mike's birthday!

This pie company is located in Oxford! Check out their website: http://www.achatzpies.com/
All of the pies are made with natural ingredients and they taste suburb!

Sheri and Mike entered their Summer Photo Contest and they both tied for the winner!

This pie company makes fabulous pies! So far, thanks to Sheri, we've tasted the delicious apple, Michigan 4 berry, and Pumpkin/Cheesecake/Pecan pies!

What's your favorite pie?

The Body Song

I was picking out a song for the JV group to sing at night church next month and couldn't help but pick this one! Anyone remember this? It brings back great memories of Gull Lake and the Sugar Girls! Does anyone have a picture of them on line?

What part of the Body of Christ are you?

THE BODY SONG

EYE
I am the eye, I go blink, blink.
Yes, I am the eye and I can wink.
I am the eye but I can’t think,
That belongs to my friend the brain.

BRAIN
I fritter fratter frit, fritter fratter frit.
I’m the brain with the electric current patter pit.
I’m the brain and I fritter learning bit by bit.
Yes, I fritter fratter fritter all the time.

EAR
Hearing, Hearing.
Small ears hearing.
We don’t miss much.
Hearing all the time.

HEART
I go lub dub, lub dub I go.
I am the heart, I pump like so.
I’m bringing life to all the parts.
I am consistent, I’m the heart.

ARM
I’m swinging, I’m swinging,
Swinging on life’s merry way.
I’m the arm, I’m the arm,
I’m bringing grace to all.

CHORUS
We are the body of Christ,
We are the body of Christ,
Together bringing His love to the world.

We work together,
We work together,
We do it with cooperation.We work together,
We work together,
We do it with cooperation. Amen.

Nice surprises are so sweet!

Maybe I should be gone for lunch more often.....

Yesterday was my "all-day-teaching-piano-day-at-Seeds of Faith-Co-op" and Jason surprised me once again by going to Walmart during his lunch break and buying me a beautiful new blender!! When I came home, a big rectangular box was on the table and my beach towel was wrapped around it and there was a cute little note that said I was very much appreciated!

We had been given a blender for our wedding, but it wasn't working very well anymore (and scaring the neighbors, I think, with its unusual high-pitched sounds!) I mentioned on Thursday night that maybe it was time to get a new one for Christmas, and since Jason heard on the Christian radio that you should never get your wife an appliance for Christmas even if she asks for it, he decided to get it right away! We've never had to buy an appliance before since we got everything we needed from our wedding gifts!

We both had shakes yesterday and today and they tasted great!!!

By the way, don't forget to do something nice for your Pastor and his family this month! It's Pastor Appreciation Month!
