HQ Staff/Ministers Dinner 2014

 The HQ ministers and staff dinner went great.  Thanks to David and Jennifer Vejil and Travis and Gail Lugo for planning it!
It is such a blessing to be able to attend this dinner every mincon.  Everyone is treated like royalty.  I feel like I'm not a "big shot" enough to attend, but I'm always reminded we are all royalty and have to start from somewhere.  I didn't post pics of the ministers at my table up close since I'm being more careful with my posts, but "at my table" were Mr. and Mrs Hope, Mr. and Mrs. Brad Macdonald, Mr. and Mrs. Wakelin, Mr. Marquez, Conner and Melinda Brown, and Joshua Sloan.  A nice mix for great conversation!

Sabbath Dinner at Deepika's House

 Deepika hosted a lovely dinner at her place for the Seebran's, my bro and sis in law, Ms Cummins from Trini, and myself.  Everything was delicious!  She let me make the dessert, I made homemade apple caramel  pie. Thanks Dee!
I did take more pics, but I'm being careful in what I post publicly these days.  Especially since I got hacked.  Better safe than sorry.  :-)


Dinner menu was slow cooked beef in wine sauce, wild rice mix, broccoli sauteed in fresh garlic, oven roasted potatoes with a touch of rosemary, and red edible mango for garnish.  Dessert was homemade caramel apple pie.


...at the end of the night, I decided to not go to the Swan Social, too tired, so when Deepika dropped me off at my car which was back on campus, as I got out of it, I told her "Thanks for coming" as if she was leaving my house.  She agreed, I just needed to go home.  :-)
Now it's Sunday...Morning Star musical debut...working concert today....ha, ha I will feel so lame in the coat check room in summer, but have to be there for the seat cushions and hard of hearing head sets, etc, and to answer passer-byers questions.  ...going to look so lame though. :-)!...and tomorrow another big dinner!  :-)

Coffee and Tea Social--JAFH

These food pics only represent a tip of the iceberg on the food spread at the coffee/tea social in the field house mincon weekend.  The food, fellowship, and decor was fab!
I didn't post all pics.  Since I got hacked last week and someone used my name in identity theft, it has made me a lot more conscious of things, so I will be being more careful about what I post publicly.

 I love this pic of Aimee, and it was sooo great to see Sarah E. in town visiting in person!







I have to hand it to the teen boys!.....I didn't see their goofy faces when I was taking the pic, only saw it when getting the pics out of my camera.  Those boys!  :-)
Skye had to get a goofy selfie in.  Love this gal!
