Today's Thought:

"Life isn't about finding yourself, 
it's about discovering who  
God created you to be."

This quote really is thought provoking for me right now as I am trying to determine the right decision in a big area of my life and have to remember that I need to be and do what God created me to be!

Spring Tea

We had a lovely lunch at the CPC Spring tea last Saturday, Hope and I served our guests a large salad with a few toppings, dinner rolls and pound cake with strawberries for dessert! It's called making a lovely (+filling) lunch on a budget ;)

It was so much fun to work with Hope and plan what to serve, how to present our table, and of course, doing the shopping which is always fun!

The dishes also helped save us some money and time, they are from a huge collection I have in my hope-chest! We dug out 8 of each piece and washed them up, I enjoyed being able to share them with everyone!

Here are some of us...

 left to right: Megan (a good friend), Helayna, Hope and Myself...looking funky in the hat I know!

Needless to say, as you could probably gather from my blog is that I LOVE tea and all that goes along with it, and this Spring tea fit right in the mix of it all!!

Happy Weekend!

I'm off to a have a hopefully lovely day at a Spring Tea with my Mom, two sisters, and friends! My sister, Hope and I are hosting a table at the tea so I will have lots of pictures of our dishes, menu and decor choices on Wednesday :) Come back to see!

And tomorrow will be a wonderful Sunday starting with Morning Church service and then lunch at our house with a family from Church!

What are your plans for the weekend? Whatever they are, I hope you have a wonderful and safe time :)

He held the world between His thumb and finger like a grape. And when the spike was driven through His hand, His muscles flinched with world-creating force and crimson wine dripped from His fingertips but with omnipotent resolve He neither dropped nor crushed His grape.
