Bill and I are part of a family prayer group. It consists of 9 couples and their children. We meet each month at someone's home. It can be crazy because there are 31 children ranging in age from 23 to 3 years old. During our meetings we sit and share our prayer intentions and then say the rosary. It has been something I look forward to each month.
Once a year, one of the couples invites us to their home for an "adults only" dinner party. John and Mary are wonderful cooks and have a great knowledge of wine. This past Saturday night we went to their house and enjoyed a wine and food pairing.

Our friends Jason and Mary were in Disney so they couldn't make it. We missed you two and also Amy who was sick :(
My date (Bill) is finishing up his month away for work. We all missed you, but I missed you the most!
Thanks for a great night John and Mary!
It was certainly a fun time for us!! I can't get Blogger to work so my post will be delayed...
ReplyDeleteI am glad that you had such a good time! xo
