The day was chilly and gray outside...but warm, smooth, and dark inside!

Question...How does one get a chocolate-covered marshmallow in one's mouth and NOT get chocolate all over? Answer...you don't!
Our pastor's wife came down with a dreadful case of "Chocolate Fever" and the girls helped get over it!
The Lord gave me the idea for a chocolate themed day, the words from a shower gel/lotion gift set I received labeled Simple Pleasures, a song by the Marshall family entitled The Glory of Your Presence, and the verse found in Psalm 16:11. We truly enjoyed the simple pleasures God gives us...of course, chocolate...but also, family, friends, food, laughter, music, and God's Word. We had 107 ladies and girls that attended. The men of our church did a fantastic job serving and cleaning up for us. A couple in our church planned and prepared the meal with help from my father and mother-in-law...and they did a fabulous job!

Wow, what a wonderful, chocolaty idea, Kari! I miss those huge fellowship times ~ we've been members in some somewhat smaller works... Praise the Lord for big and small! ♥ Kim;D x's
