The children's Sunday School teacher had the inspiration to do a play about Esther several years ago.  Her dream finally came to fruition Saturday when the play was finally performed.  She and all the children did an outstanding job.

From looking at Wesley's face, I would say they enjoyed it.

King Ahasuerus servant has just been told by Queen Vashti to tell the King to "Go jump in the lake."

After the King rids himself of Vashti he looks for another lady fit to be Queen.  This maiden has perfumed herself so much the smell fills the room causing the King some discomfort.

Justus was the royal fanner.

The King has just commanded Haman to give honor to Mordecai.  Haman is not very happy about this.

One of the girls became creative with their relish tray for the refreshments served afterwards. (What shape do you see?)

And finally, the weekend was finished with a couple visiting us from Germany while  on their honeymoon.  Both recently had birthdays, one while flying over on the plane.  I thought a little blackberry cobber was in order.  Blackberries from my mother's garden.  Thanks, mom.  You are amazing.  The recipe for this delicious cobbler can be found here.

Now, what does the Lord have in store for us this week ?
