Olivia started her first day at McDonald's YESTERDAY!!! They called last week and told us she got the job! She's very excited. Yesterday was her first day but only for orientation. She begins training next week at a different McDonald's than where she will be working. That McD's is still under construction and will open in one month.
Michael is doing better with most of his teeth missing.
The Colonel will be home tonight and he's planning on finishing up the extension for the garden he started on Monday. I do have pictures to post, but will do them all at one time.
Last Thursday we went to see Olivia and the rest of our youth participate in the District Level for Fine Arts. Olivia did her short sermon!
Here are some pictures of our trip last week. I went with my mom and my good friend Olga; her daughter Sarah was also participating. Enjoy!

I do hope Olivia likes her new job. I remember my first job many many years ago at Wendys. What a blast from the past. I do wish Michael well. I'll be praying for him.
Tell Olivia to keep pushing herself in her performing. God has big plans for that girl and she will go far.
Love the pictures of you and your mom. You are both very beautiful women.
Have a wonderful day my friend.
Blessings,
AMY

What a cute post! I am sure that Olivia will get the job!!! She, like her mother, is fabulous.
Thank you for your kind comments this morning. I got the lettuce cold frame online at Gardeners' Supply.
Email me if you have trouble finding it. I don't miss your PA weather.... I grew up in PA, you know.
Tell your husband to take it easy.

You know, every day doesn't have to be "blog-worthy"! 🙂 In fact, most of my days are really just regular old days! But the everyday life is still interesting! I hope Micheal's mouth feels better today. 10 teeth! Wow! My 10yo son had 3 baby teeth pulled back in Nov. I remember that he felt badly for a couple of days.
Have a good weekend!
