Sunday

This morning as I was heading to our car I spotted these beautiful pink lilies...they weren't there yesterday...and they have no leaves. One of the names for these lilies is "Resurrection Lily" (figured a good picture to put on a Sunday blog). Other names that this lily is known as are "Surprise Lily," "Magic Lily," and "Naked Lady (aka "Neked Lady" probably a southerner calls them this!). The blooms on these lilies never appear when there are leaves on the plant. The leaves appear in the Spring and then in the summer the flowers appear miraculously on tall stalks...not there one day and there they are in all their glory (minus their leaves) the next. I remembered their name being Surprise Lily. That is the name I searched on the internet and then found these other names and information about this interesting lily. They are very pretty.

Woody got up early and walked his eight-mile route. We both went to the early church service and then Sunday School. Woody taught his 6th grade boys' class. We came home and then Woody went back to church for a luncheon for the upcoming 6th grade children and their parents. It was held after the 11am service. I did manage to get Abigail's dress together enough for it to look like a dress and be able to hang from a hanger last night. Today I have worked on the collar pieces. Woody worked a crossword puzzle and at one point this afternoon I "helped" him fill in a couple of squares...enough that he was able to go on to complete the puzzle. It has been a fairly quiet Sunday afternoon and evening here in our household.
