Indiana, Rensselaer - Sunday, June 22, 2014

Yesterday we made a grocery run and when we came home, the yard was filled with geese – clean up time again L

They look really pretty when they are out on the water.  There are two families with little goslings.

The grocery in Rensselaer had some really good produce.  The last couple of weeks I have tried something I read that is supposed to make your produce last longer, and it does.  Add ¼ c. of white vinegar to half a sink of water.  Add produce and let it set for 10 minutes.  I set it out and let it dry before I package it for the fridge or freezer.  I’ve noticed a difference especially in the berries.  You don’t taste the vinegar.

Today just turned six grandson Jackson was scheduled to sing a solo at church.  He was a little hesitant early in the morning, but when the time came he ran to the front of the church, stood on a box in front of a microphone all by himself and sang “As the Deer”.  What made it even harder for him was that he had practiced to recorded music and that was what he was supposed to have this morning, but there were technical difficulties.  He ended up singing with piano accompaniment which he had never done.  Unfortunately, the pianist wasn’t informed that he was only supposed to sing the first two verses.  When she started the third verse, Jackson had that “deer in the headlights” look for just a second.  When he hesitated the congregation started singing very low and he picked up and took it from there.  Proud grandparents have been known to have a tear or two run down their cheeks.

Later on the whole vacation bible school group which included Jackson and Braelynn entertained us with some very energetic drumming to the bible school theme song.

When we got home Greg convinced his barber (me) to cut his hair.  We are going to spend some time later this evening with son AJ, daughter-in-law Kim and the twins at their friends Bill and Bonnie’s home.
