Monday Musings

Did your favorite baseball player use a pink bat yesterday?
What a great Mother’s Day gift, watching the men of baseball proudly wear and use pink in support of Breast Cancer research. And, as an added bonus, each of the four Mariners who used a pink bat hit a home run in the game. Eddie and I were laughing that given the superstitious nature of baseball players we could be seeing these bats all season. And, what a triple play by the White Sox. Happy Mother’s Day to my amazing and wonderful mom, who just happens to be a Breast Cancer Survivor herself.

By popular demand, photos of Holy Trinity Chapel
Our priest is very aware that this is the Spiritual home of many of our cradle Orthodox, and services are held in the Chapel about once a month. We’ll be there for the Altar Feast Day of Pentecost, along with the annual BBQ (if you want more information so you can come, let me know). We also hold Theophany there, as well as any adult baptisms in the creek behind the town.


Hey, it’s a photo of Alicia and me from our meeting –thank you for taking it on your Palm and emailing it to me, Alicia!

At our monthly scrapping meeting, I did an entire 6x6 album of our trip to Disneyland last year – I can get into this quick and easy album thing. I used as a basis the pages I did at a CK Class from the Bellevue Expo. Very cool! And, we had a CTMH party beforehand, so I can’t wait to get my goodies.

And lastly, I am very excited that the division between the Moscow Patriarchate and the Russian Church Outside of Russia seems to be on the way to being healed. Amen!

Happy Monday! We are having record breaking heat, so if you are too, get out and enjoy the sun
