Fourth of July 2018

For our 4th of July, we had a nice, quiet day at home. After three weeks of traveling and being away, this was a perfect day for our family. I made steak kabobs and they were yummy!

I also made potato salad. Now, I enjoy a really good potato salad - but I don't like celery. So, I can be picky about potato salad! I made this but I wasn't satisfied with it. It tasted like egg salad to me! Oh well! Maybe someone can share their secret recipe with me!

It was just us and my FIL but it is always nice to set a nice table to make the day feel special.

Ahh...an elote! One of my favorite summer foods. :)

Peach cobbler with vanilla bean ice cream to end the meal. Happy July 4th!

You May Abound In Hope

Today I completed a devotional book by Candace Cameron Bure. 100 Days of Joy and Strength. I was struggling last night. Darkness seemed to overwhelm me. The last day of this devotional gave me exactly the encouragement I needed to go another day. Here are the verses she shared from God's Word. "I wait for the Lord, my whole being waits, and in His word I put my hope." Psalm 130:5 "We are afflicted in every way, but not crushed; perplexed, but not driven to despair; persecuted, but not forsaken; struck down, but not destroyed;" II Corinthians 4:8-9 "As for me, I watch in hope for the Lord, I wait for God my Savior; my God will hear me. Do not gloat over me, my enemy! Though I have fallen, I will rise. Though I sit in darkness, the Lord will be my light." Micah 7:7-8 "I remain confident of this; I will see the goodness of the Lord in the land of the living. Wait for the Lord; be strong and take heart and wait for the Lord."...
