Earlier this year our church had
its annual Bible Bingo night, and just like last year, I threw in a prize of a
sunset cruise at the Shaffer house! Last year one of the teens in church chose
it (which pretty much was the best gift ever) and she brought her family along
for her evening at our house. Well…she chose it again this year! I was so
happy! (A return winner is a privilege indeed!)
About a month ago, this family
brought home a sweet new puppy, and we were so excited that they brought him
along! We were also hoping Lexi wouldn’t be too exuberant and scare the poor
pup. In reality, both were exuberant and I think they held their own. Lexi has
been rushed and scared by so many dogs in her day that she struggles when they
run to her. But we worked with her and eventually she calmed down.
We hung out on the patio for a
while. Some of the kids tried their hand at paddleboarding, we ate some ice
cream, and we caught up on lots of stories.
And then it was time for the
boat ride!!
Ryan was so sweet to give all the kids a turn helping with driving. We took so many laps around the lake, and it was so fun!
I’m so thankful for this family.
They have encouraged and prayed for me so often over the last few years, and I
am so glad that we get to hang out with them for sunset cruises!!
