Sunday Smiles - Mar. 5, 2023 - Father-Daughter Dance

-

 Hello and Happy Sunday! 


I wish you all the best for today. May God's love shine through and show itself all around you. I am sharing a post each Sunday morning that hopefully makes you smile a bit. I know we all need more kindness and love in our lives and a smile always helps my day to be better. 




On Wednesday night, my husband took our granddoll to a Father-Daughter dance at church. This was the second year that they have gone and my what a fun time they have. It is like a mini date as there is dinner, dancing, and fun to be had. This year was centered around a Hawaiian theme and I think they done well with getting dressed for the occasion. My husband does not like to wear anything but jeans and a shirt with a pocket (preferably a tee shirt), so this is good for him. 


They had fruit cups to snack on as well as some tropical freeze style drinks- she had pina colada. There were photo booths and a place to do stickers on one of your photos. There were photos with surfboards in the background as well. 


I am thrilled that the church does this for their young people and that there is so much participation. I am thankful that my husband will take her as he is not one to dance or go to social events like this. I have tried so many times and he will never do anything that I want to do. 


The love of a grandchild is like no other love that you will ever experience! I hope that this has made you smile just a bit today.

I read this as part of a challenge to read classical books and this month was to reread a classic.

I decided to start with the first book in the series and I will read the entire series again this month as long as time allows. The Boxcar Children is about a group of 4 orphans that are siblings.

 Good Monday morning ladies, how are you? It is super cold here, but I am thankful for our wood stove and plenty of good heat. I am joining Sandra over at  Diary of a Stay At Home Mom  for the Happy Homemaker Monday link up party. She is so kind to host this weekly and there are many of us bloggers that enjoy this weekly post.  The Weather: Cold, snowy, below zero wind chills and temperatures of a night. I believe our high for the day is to be 7 degrees F. BRR!!!!!! I hate winter when it is like this. I don't mind cold, but I don't like Artic cold. I am not a fan of the ice that occurs when we have temperatures like this.  Right Now, I Am: Sitting at my desk drinking coffee. As I look out the window, I see a bit of snow and maybe a bit of a sunrise. It is about -18 degrees with the windchill and so it looks cold! I am listening to the news that my husband left on when he went out. It is not something I care to do, but I just haven't gotten up yet, to change...
