GIRLS' WEEKEND ON CORDRY

So what if no one ever accused the Ovid Midlife Moms of traveling light? We need a few, ahem, supplies, for a weekend at Terri's lake house on Cordry Lake. And this is not counting what the eighth member of our weekend crew brought on Saturday morning.

We went Friday after everyone got off work. We couldn't wait to get there, gather the evening's menu offerings, and enjoy a picnic on the lake. We had eight of our 12 present.

Dinner onboard included Sharon's homemade ham salad sandwiches, Terri's pea salad, party mix, an assortment of fruit and I see some celery sticks in there. There were yummy, ooey-gooey chocolate bar cookies as well.

The weather was perfect and some of us headed back out on the boat shortly before bedtime to see God's moon show.

What a beautiful scene from the water. A cellphone camera doesn't do it justice, but yes, the moon was THAT bright.

Still, I was the first to bed around 10:30 p.m., and I slept well as I dozed off thankful for this weekend that so many of us look so forward to all year long.

That's why I couldn't believe it when I didn't get up until 9 the next morning!

When it's not your turn to cook, the scent is all the sweeter coming from the stove.

Delaine make the best egg casserole, and we enjoyed it with biscuits, fresh fruit and zuchinni bread by Patty. Delicious.

All but Karen, who came Saturday morning, are the gals who made it this summer weekend.

Such fun, including tubing, swimming, boating, moon-gazing, movie night watching "The Greatest Showman," and a beautiful Bible study on the boat Sunday morning, courtesy of Karen, taken from the book of Joel. Oh, and some crafts, including some bookmarks made from this and that.

Sunday's brunch spread is always my favorite featuring a leftovers' buffet. Here's a sampling of our goodies.
Thank you Terri, for the wonderful, relaxing, laughter-filled weekend. And thank You, Lord, for your creation, your abundance, and for providing such sweet friends.
