These men have been part of Delmar’s life for, well, forever. They have camped together every summer since they were children, only missing two years. This year they included their wives and girlfriends and rented a cabin. The result was a a very memorable, laughter-filled weekend.

Truly Scrumptious
Posted in friends, Fulton Opera House, Lancaster City on July 8, 2011 | 2 Comments »
I love theater. In particular, I love the Fulton Theater on Prince Street. Last night, I fell in love with it again. Twelve of us went to watch the comedy Chitty Chitty Bang Bang. No matter how many times I open the theater doors, I get this happy tingling feeling as I look at the [...]
Surprised by Friends

I had a busy day painting and shopping and checking final things off my to-do list. I canceled a friend this evening because I was too tired and thought I needed an evening of rest. I retired early and took a shower. I came downstairs and nearly fell over. My dear friends of honor — [...]
Surprise!

Life is full of surprises. Sometimes, surprises are so much fun. Other times, surprises are not so pleasant. Bad surprises — like misunderstandings out of nowhere, sad words, and conflict in relationships that appeared perfect. It’s a blow to the side without warning. Somehow, the surprise takes you so suddenly. It’s like you are enjoying [...]
Privileged Beyond Words

Yep, that’s what I am… so privileged to be the dean of so many amazing ladies. The ladies of second term stole their way deep into my heart. Their maturity and hunger for God challenged me again and again. I loved spending six weeks with them in school, and I loved watching them grow and [...]

We got to spend last Saturday evening with Linda Weaver and her family in North Carolina. Yes, the memory does bring a very happy sigh and a little smile. Our time was too short, but it was treasured–ever single moment.

Saturday night we went to the Fulton Opera House to see Les Miserables come alive on stage. The music took us to faraway places, sad and lonely, full of life and death, choices and decisions, and allowed us to search our hearts and see the deep, gaping wounds the world gives to its comrades… and [...]
brown package

Spinning and twirling days, full of people and projects and plans. Today, in the craziness of life, God sent me a brown package from her friend, Martha Troyer. Tucked inside was a cute coffee mug. The message on the mug sums it all up: “Once upon a time there was a very busy girl with [...]
safe friends = growth

I value relationships like never before. I see my relationships with my friends and loved ones as the most important part of life. They are priceless. It’s in the context of safe, healthy relationships that I grow in my Christian life. I can read, pray and study theology until I’m blue in the face–but until [...]
