Happy Birthday Erika


We celebrated Erika's birthday last night.
I won't say how old she is, but she only gets better with age.
There is always so much laughter at our table.
For that, I am thankful!

For dinner, I marinated the steak filets, and David grilled them on the patio.
I had a baked potato bar with all the fixings and a mock Caesar salad.
Lucy, whom I'll get to in a minute, made cream brulee for dessert.


She brought her cooking blow torch and burned the sugar on top to a golden brown.
It was so delicious.

We are all struggling with our emotions as Lu leaves for college next week.

😢

It is a bittersweet time as her leave date gets closer and closer.
She is such an integral part of our life, but
we are also very excited, as she is, about her next adventure.
She has always wanted to be a nurse, and now is God's timing for her to get started.

Lucy will be missed.
Lots of prayers will accompany her as she settles in and finds her way.
🙏
