In the last couple of weeks, I have been busy sharing my table with ..............

.... My daughter and son-in-love and my grandchildren

.... My son and daughter-in-love
.... My daughter-in-love and my grandchildren
.... My granddaughter, Lily
.... My husband
.... My LORD
I have shared my breakfast table, my lunch table, a snack table, and my supper table with those that I love. The last two weeks, I have shared the Sunday Table with ALL of the Family!!! It has been a wonderful time around the family table! We have shared our lives, our work, our desires, our problems, and our Lord! I am so glad that we have the opportunity to sit down and have time together. If you have the time and even if you don't -- make the time-- to sit with your family and enjoy a meal, talk about "stuff", share your dreams and hopes, give Thanks to our Lord for all of His Blessings on your family!

Sharing my JOY!

Our tables are an extension of who we are...... of our relationships with family members..... of how we honor the Lord.  How have you expressed your "table manners"?  Do you say Grace before meals?  Do you sit with the family?  Do you have conversation with them?  Or does everyone sit wherever.... reading or watching TV or on their Smart Phones on Facebook or Twitter?   We need to re-group.... and relate to one another, and the Table is the best place for that. (June 2012)


So much LIFE going on..............

... But we still have to eat!  

So share your table with someone!

Tonight my oldest son and his wife will join us as the Table!  It has been a long time .....  we will also enjoy a movie and each others company.  (6-8-2012)
Wow!  

It has been years since I've been here!  So much has happened since I last wrote.  March 2014!!! 

Wow! Since then I have been blessed with another grandchild.  This makes me have eight (8) --- three girls and five boys!  Oh, we also found out a couple of weeks ago that we will be getting a new one in March!  Our TABLE is getting Bigger and Bigger!  I am so blessed!

I am hoping to get back to this blog.... at least weekly!  It feels good to share with you all.

The Picnic Table



This week has been long.....  the WHOLE family was around.  That is 19 of us!
My table has been full these last few days!  
From breakfast to dinner...... snacks to dessert......lunch to Tea Parties!
We have  laughed and played and laughed some more!

One thing that the Grandchildren look forward to is "The Tea Party"!  
Whenever we all gather together, I have a Tea Party for the children and they
now expect it!  (which is fine with me) This time my table for the Tea Party was
outside!  surprised everyone......We were at the picnic table!  
We had little Cucumber Sandwiches, Piroulines,  Peanut Butter Balls, 
Animal Crackers, and the favorite of everyone this time was:
Marshmallow Pops!!!
Of course, we had Tea, Apple Cinnamon Tea in wine glasses!

We learned about St. Patrick and the snakes of Ireland; 
played "Mother May I", Red Light/Green Light; and Chase!
As the coolness of the evening set in we all went inside, to eat our dinner, 
which was prepared by my lovely daughter-in-love, Kristen!  How nice
it was to not have to cook but just to enjoy the grandchildren! 
(Thanks Kristen!)

So as this week ends, I will remember all the "table" fun we had!  
I hope that you all have a fun time as you Share Your Table!

Another Table

Another Table








This week end I shared another table............ kind of mine..... I had all of my children  (except Jason) and grandchildren there.  It is always a blessing when we ALL get together.  Although the house is getting smaller, we still sit together at The Table!  This time it was at El Amigo's!  We had eighteen -- 18 -- for lunch!!!!  I am so blessed!  We ate, chatted, discussed, talked, laughed, and had an amazing time together!!!  The Table was full! We were all full! After lunch, we all went our separate ways for the rest of the afternoon..... some took a nap.....some played games.....some watched TV.....some visited....and etc....  Later on that evening, we all met at Joel's house for a cook out!   Again, a time around The Table, this time it was Ayla's. She opened her home for all of us to feel
 "at home"!   Such a sweet hostess!  What a lovely time we all had!  I relish these times with my family....... I only wish they happened more often!  At least, I have had my fix for this week! :)
