My mom at my dad's grave. Such a pretty day!
Below is Father Theodore, a monk who is from Scotland. Another monk, Father Paul, gave our youngest some of his bread and then a wood beaded bracelet with a cross. Many smiles. Little kind gestures.
My sister's Godmother, Margaret, her son and granddaughter.
After the meal...I talked to many people I haven't seen in a long time, it was nice to see them.
This is Father Iov who drove the tractor while my dad worked here and helped with the farm work. He's in his 90s, a dear old monk. One of the other monks, Father James, helps take care of him.
My mom with two of her friends.
Yesterday, we had a father's day cookout with friends.
Stewart's ice cream after...the boys rode up the driveway on their father's lap.That's Pauline holding her baby sister, Edith.
Perfect weather for barefeet. New friendships. Many good people.
Happy summer to you!
Looks like a wonderful time!! So glad for you all!! Memory eternal to your Dad 💚🙏
ReplyDeleteWhat a wonderful visit to the monastery. Glory to God.
ReplyDeleteAnd the Father's Day celebration looks splendid. So summer and full of family fun.
It is so refreshing to re-connect with old friends, and doubly blessed to be at a monastery. Your photos capture some beautiful moments.
