First Week in June

NC has been really hot this past week.  Up in the 90's already.  But Nana loves the hot weather.  I am cold natured and the hot weather does not bother me.  Yes, I do get hot, but some people I know really do not like the summer months because of the heat, but I love it. 

This week was a short work week and it seemed to fly by.  I received really great compliment at work this week.  One of my co-workers IM'd me and said that she enjoyed working with me, and that I was a great example of Christ in the workplace.  This is the best compliment I could have ever received.  I sometimes feel inadequate in my example, but I do strive to always live to the best of my ability like Christ.  I am a sinner and I do faulter, but when someone says that they are watching...it makes you want to strive even harder...but isn't someone watching all the time....But anyway...it was a great thing for someone to tell you they noticed.

PopPops and I have eaten dinner a couple of nights this week out on the patio...I am indoors all day and I love to eat out on the patio...we have a large umbrella that we put up and a fan that we turn on.  It is quite pleasant.  I would stay out there all night, but the bugs get to bothering PopPops and we have to come in...they never seem to bother me at all.  PopPops says it is because he is sweeter then I am. :)
June is a busy month for my family for Anniversaries.  Today, my sister Nancy has an Anniversary ~ 16 years.  Tuesday, June 7th my sister Pam has an Anniversary ~ 37 years.   June 11th is mine and PopPops' 34th year Anniversary and June 13th was my Mom and Dad's Anniversary (could have been 50 + years) ~ they are both deceased, and  one of my nephews Jason, has an Anniversary in June as well, I think the 22nd.  PopPops and I are going away to the beach for our Anniversary this next weekend.  We have friends that have a place between Atlantic Beach and Emerald Isle.  We are going down on Friday evening and will stay through Sunday.  It is a great place and we love it there.  Thank you Dave and Anita.

Nana has only gotten to skype with Carter and Colemam this past week a couple of times because of my schedule and their Momma's schedule and because of them sleeping.  But when I have they have been so cute!!!...Carter and Coleman both can say Nana...melts my heart...Coleman can say Bye Bye and Carter will clap his hands and put his hands up to his face when his Mama sings "If you're happy and you know it".  Just precious.  They are changing alot right now...even from when they were here to this past week, they have shown changes.  Nana and Pop Pops love you Carter and Coleman!!

I teach the 4's & 5's Sunday School Class.  Today I had a larger group then normal and we had a great time. We learned about the Holy Spirit coming to the disciples at Pentecost with the wind and the fire...after Jesus had returned to Heaven.  I love to hear what they have to say and how they perceive things. Sometimes they are more attentive then others...today was an attentive day.   I have a great group of kids and I so enjoy it.    Little children are so adaptable.  Maybe we should learn to be more like little children as adults...hmmmm.

Cupcakes...big thing nowadays...I have found a great cupcake place...GiGi's in Cameron Village...they have a large selection and they make great gifts.  If you live in the Raleigh area, go check them out...if you need an idea to give someone to brighten their day, birthday, or for any special occasion, GiGi's has it...they box them in a cute single box, which makes gift giving perfect.
