Houses for Wrent....

Pappy and Alex had made plans to build birdhouses last Saturday after the soccer game. Two of them, one for me and one for Alex's yard. On the way home, Alex informed Pappy that he had told his teacher that he would make her one too!
So they made a quick stop at the home center for more wood.
They did a great job!
So we added some paint and up they went...

Alex's teacher told him that she will be hanging the birdhouse in the school habitat for everyone to enjoy!
He was thrilled.
Were keeping our fingers-crossed in hopes that new tenants will move in soon!!

Exercise for people over 50...

(or who feel like it)

Begin by standing on a comfortable surface, where you have plenty of room at each side.

With a 5-lb potato sack in each hand, extend your arms straight out from your sides and hold them there as long as you can. Try to reach a full minute, and then relax.

Each day you'll find that you can hold this position for just a bit longer.

After a couple of weeks, move up to 10-lb potato sacks, Then try 50-lb potato sacks and then eventually try to get to where you can lift a 100-lb potato sack in each hand and hold your arms straight for more than a full minute. (I'm at this level.)

After you feel confident at that level, put a potato in each sack.

~ Signs of Spring ~

"Spring shows what God can do with a drab and dirty world."
Virgil A. Kraft

The Laugh
A minister was making a wooden trellis to support a climbing vine. As he was pounding away, he noticed that a little boy was watching him. The youngster didn't say a word, so the preacher kept on working, thinking the lad would leave. But he didn't. Pleased at the thought that his work was being admired, the pastor finally said, "Well, son, trying to pick up some pointers on gardening?" "No," he replied. "I'm just waiting to hear what a preacher says when he hits his thumb with a hammer."

Thought for Today
"Jesus didn't just sit around saying, 'I sure wish something would happen.'" - Howard Hendricks
