No, it is not the 4th of July celebration! We will celebrate and hopefully go swimming, but the one I'm talking about is our...50th WEDDING ANNIVERSARY! I spent time today to create a music playlist with a variety of singers. My one favorite is "Close to You" by the Carpenters. Others are "You are The Sunshine of My Life by Stevie Wonder", "How Sweet it is to be loved By You" by James Taylor, The Beatles' song, "I saw Her Standing There, "Making Memories of Us by Keith Urban, and several others.
We plan to go to church on our anniversary. It is a Saturday and we were married on a Saturday. So perfect! Then we will come here for food, music, and enjoy our guests!

I was invited a week ago to a Book Club gathering at Marti's house. She started this awesome club years ago. Each woman brought delicious food to enjoy. One brought a Shoo fly pie. That was great since I shared many things about my Amish books. The members decided to each pick one of my books to read. And thank you to Ruth Brothers for suggesting me to be the author for the June meeting. Some of the books they read are: A Gift Forever, The Amish Mother's Secret, Priscilla's Escape, A Joyful Break, Amish Baby Snatched, and Never the Same. It was fun to meet the members! I talked about my inspiration and being with traditional publishers and self-publishing. I wish I had thought to get a picture with Marti and the members. The book I'm holding is because at the end, I told them about my daughter, Christina, being my cover model for my book, Fleeting Hope!

I happen to see this review today for An Unexpected Gift! I'm thrilled because I really enjoyed writing this book. I am posting this by my pool. The only bad thing is the noisy cicadas!
