Teach Me, Lord

Tonight we had our Ladies Meeting and it was so very good. I enjoyed it so much and Mrs. Ava's devotion was just right. The theme was Teach Me, Lord. She had a little booklet that she made for us and I'm going to post some out of it periodically. Tonight, I'll be sharing our pictures.

About 15 minutes before we started, there were some ladies that stood as mannikins before each day of the week, which represented a certain chore for their day of the week. They did a really good job just standing or sitting there for 15 to 20 minutes. Thanks, y'all!!

Brenda was under Monday, Wash Day. Kellie was under Tuesday, Ironing Day. And Pam was under Wednesday, Mending Day.

Rebecca was under Thursday, Cleaning Day. Missy was under Friday, Shopping Day. And Susan was under Saturday, Baking Day.

And April was under Sunday, The Lord's Day.

This is my Mother sitting down, and Betty-Jean.

This is our Pastor's wife, Mrs. Ava, reading us a poem about daily chores for our Spiritual life.

This is my beautician, Missy, with her mouth open....as always. hehe...love ya, Missy!! :)

Here is a picture of some ladies in line for the food. Our menu tonight was salads, pastas, breads, and desserts.

I wrote a skit about a woman that comes home from work complaining about having to do the dishes, wash laundry, cook, etc. She falls asleep and meets a woman from the past who has it way harder than what we have it today. Susan and her foster daughter, Brittney, were my people from the past. We were in the storage room where they waited before entering for the skit. This was NOT part of our decor. :D

At the majority of our meetings, Mrs. Ava always has some sort of door prizes. Tonight was no different. She had the coolest cleaning novelties to give away...among other door prizes.

My number was called and I got this little basket with Bath and Body Works lotion (Plumeria) and a Bath and Body Works candle (brown sugar & fig.) They both smell, oh so good!
