It's time to celebrate our Friday's FAVE Five.
Thanks Susanne for hosting.
How many have you hosted so faithfully?
Eighty Six!
I enjoyed preparing my little boys for their Mom's Marathon.
Three family members participated in the pouring rain,
and all were successful at meeting their goals.

"Opa, my bike needs fixing."
So we took the tire...only to find out, it cost $40 to replace it.
Off we went to Bibles for Missions,and guess what we found?
A solid working bike for $13, with two excellent tires.

Now, why is that bike parked on my doorstep?
He wanted to make sure it would be safe all night,
and that he could see it. He was so proud.
Guess what else I found there...Dishes from Bavaria...for only $30 a set.
They matched my German dishes I received from
my hubbies mother many years ago...
I love them.
I've never been the world's best bargain hunter,
but this was an exceptionally good day.
Today the sun is shining and the weather looks good.Maybe it's time to work on those salads once again.
Hop over to MGCC and check out today's Opa's Yogurt Dip
A walk with a friend...What an exquisite pink dogwood.
The Pacific Dogwood, (white in color)
was adopted as BC's floral emblem in 1956.
But I love the pink...they are beautiful.
There's my five highlights.
Hope you all have a wonderful week.

I'm surprised the bike wasn't in the bedroom with him while he slept, so he could reach out and touch it if he woke in the night. Wow! You really did score with those dishes! Lucky girl!

Your thrift finds are wonderful!
