Baking Sugar Cookies

Last Wednesday I (Jolene) was invited by Candi and Audrey Aberle to make some Sugar cookies with some other Home School\Single Group girls for the Mennonite Relief sale. How could I miss it??? 

Here behind  the sink Katie Kaiser and Charity Koch made the cookie dough.

Here Me, Promise Koch, Audrey Aberle, and Debbie took the dough and rolled them into balls.

Here Heidi Sauder smashed the cookie balls into little cookies.(She would not make the right face for me!!!!! :) Then we frosted them.

After we frosted some cookies we went and played Guesture while Candi got out lunch. Sorry we do not have any pictures of that.

Thank You Candi and Audrey for inviting us!!!!  We had a BLAST!!!!!! :) They sold really well at the Mennonite Relief Sale! 6 for $3.50. (I have to  admit that I bought some of those good cookies we made!!!!!) We are thinking about making cookies again for a wedding or  just for our families!!!!!

                            Christian Friendship

Vs. 1

There are friendships that we cherish, In our daily walk of life,

Friends with whom we meet and labor, in our earthly toil and strife,

Friends among the aged and youthful, Friends that live from us apart,

Friends of higher rank and station, find a place within my heart.

Vs 2

But I Prize the friendship highest of the one whose heart is true,

Friends who live by truth and goodness, and who live in him anew,

Friends whose hearts are up in heaven, Though their feet traverse this sod,

Find a place of highest merit in our fellowship with God.
Vs. 3

There’s a tie of noble kinship, In a soul who loves the Lord,

There’s a friendship warm and lasting , If he heads the master’s word,

There is mutual understanding and sympathy so kind,

In the tie of Christian friendship, that on earth we oft times find

Vs.4

When at last these ties are riven. When we’re called to go on high,

Oh, how sweet to meet in heaven, Friends forever, you and I,

When at last the ties are riven, When we’re called to go on high,

Oh, how sweet to meet in heaven , Friend forever, you and I.

We’re baa-aack!

We have had somewhat of a hiatus at blogging this past year.  I (LauraLee) got a new computer switching from Windows to a Mac.  I like the Mac but hesitated to purchase an app for blogging – we like Windows Live Writer so well and it’s not available for the Mac!  I also didn’t want to pay to be able to run Windows on my Mac.  The problem we’ve had is we keep all the pictures on my computer so Jolene didn’t have access to them from the Windows computer they use for school.

So, what to do?

My pictures take up too much memory on my computer so we are purchasing an external hard drive to store them and then we will have access to the drive from both computers and Jolene can begin again to keep you updated of the happenings in our little part of this beautiful world God has created for us.  :)

Stay tuned…
