sweet fellowship.

i just had such a fun few hours. we had "ladies game night" at CCC tonite. all of a sudden i'm feeling that this blog post won't do it justice. oh well. here are some of the highlights:

• molly's super brute strength as she carried 40 lbs (ish) of drinks in at one time.
  
• meeting people that attend our church that i've never met before!
• pulling the "peaceful" card at the beginning of a game of apples to apples - appropriate considering the good gifts the Father has been giving me lately.
  
• drinking from red solo cups
• drinking cherry coke from previously mentioned cups
  
• bubbles....they are so spiritual
• eating only the green and pink starburst jellybeans
  
• meeting a vibrant & FABULOUS 87 year old that has more life and spunk than most 30 year olds i know. i would LOVE to look, act, feel, BE like Mrs. S 55+ years down the road...
• laughing. laughing and laughing.
• lindy. she's quite entertaining.
• hearing ladies talk positively about their husbands/marriage.
• hearing ladies talk positively about one another - bragging on each other, encouraging one another, building each other up
  
• hearing about grandkids loving to play with the "jiggly parts" of their grandmothers (i especially loved the "jello jello" remark)
• fellowship that didn't have an ounce of unhealthy competition or even hints of gossip.
  

the only thing that would have made it better is if all of the other ladies from CCC who i love and treasure (and all the ones i haven't had the privilege of meeting/getting to know) could have joined us!! maybe next time...
