The Shafferland Shuffle

Hello, and happy Sunday! Hope you've had a good week! Ours has been quite the mix of highs and lows, as you will soon see. 

* Last Sunday was a really spectacular day at church...one of those days I won't forget for a long, long time. Still gives me goose bumps! (And then of course, last Sunday was also the day I found I'd put my deodorant in the freezer, so I was obviously not thinking clearly for every single moment of the day.) Ryan and I were both exhausted from our weekend of speaking, so we took lots of naps! 
* Monday morning I went to the hospital to sit with a friend before her surgery, and then Ryan and I went to a funeral that afternoon. Ryan's sister lost her mother-in-law in a really tragic accident, so we went to her service. 
* Because I'd been gone so much on Monday, I was really behind on office work, so I spent Tuesday trying to catch up! I did take a break to see Ryan to play cornhole at lunch (tournament at work) and then back to the office I went! That night we picked up dinner for my friend who had surgery and took it to her. We may or may not have stopped for a treat of our own on the way home. :) 
* I made salad on Wednesday and got to try my new Thieves veggie cleaner. Do any of you use this stuff? It's pretty great! We settled in that night to watch the AGT finale. It made me so nervous, I had to "watch" the end with my hands over my eyes. Too much pressure!
* I went to Bible study on Thursday...I'm learning so much from this group. I appreciate them! Ryan brought me a latte that night after his workout. Isn't he the nicest! All of us were tired that night...including Miss Braeya Jo Jo. (She had no workout to blame it on. She's just all cat.)
* Friday morning, before he left for work, Ryan said, "Hey, I can talk to you now!" I couldn't figure out what he meant...and then I saw the mug. Ha! It rained for a little that morning, and Ryan sent me this rainbow picture. I always miss rainbows. But he caught a good one! It cleared up pretty quickly, and that afternoon, Pheebs came to stay! She hasn't been over for a while!
* Yesterday was a busy day! Ryan worked and I went to his cousin's bridal shower. It was a nice shower, complete with a delicious breakfast bar! I got to see our little nephew, too, which was fun. Later in the day, we went to the viewing for our friend Mike, who passed away earlier this week. We took Pheebs for an evening walk, and then I made a big batch of chocolate chip cookies! 

So there you go! A quick peek at our Shafferland week!

Yesterday Ryan was the topic of conversation between Katie and me as we left our lunch spot and came to the city 'square' called the sunken gardens where a cornhole tournament was in full swing. Have never seen soooo many cornhole boards and player in my life...we just knew Ryan would be the winner...Lois

Tamar - This was my first time to try it! (Coupon.) I like it! And Phoebe was so fun!

Lois - Ryan laughed and laughed. He said he would not be a winner! (We just need to get our own boards so he can practice more!)

Shari - He was pondering the selfie, I think! LOL!
