Day 54

Sunday has come and gone once more in our home and I am ready for bed and for a new week!

  • We got to church almost on time today and I must say the boys have come a LONG way since the days of either David or myself having to constantly remove them from the chapel for bad behavior.  Now they sit like gentlemen, read books, sometimes listen to the speakers, and eat their packed snacks.  I am grateful for the happy moments that growing children bring!
  • We came home and I got a brief nap today and we also went to town organizing the boxes, cleaning the place up a bit and getting the rooms ready for the closet installations in the morning!
  • I whipped up a fun meal of crock pot chicken, rice, salad, garlic bread, and some blue cheese dressing from scratch....it actually tasted good! (Yes, me making food for the first time from scratch and having it taste good surprises me every time lol)
  • We invited a couple and their adorable kids from church over for dinner and the 8 of us had a great time talking, playing, and getting to know each other better.  It was an amazing evening and they were kind enough to bring us dessert....some of the best dessert EVER!  It was a cream cheese brownie/bar dessert that was out of this world.  It was soft in the middle with a crumbly bottom.  Just yum!  It was so great to be able to enjoy dinner with new friends here and hopefully we can do it many more times!  
  • During and after the boys took a bath this evening, we Skyped with my parents.  It was nice to see them and their dog.  David got caught up on all of the recent goings on at my dad's work, and I got to chat with my mom about what has been going on at her church.  The boys also showed them their most recent favorite toy and say some silly things.  I am so grateful for modern technology that keeps us all so close to one another!
Well it is off to bed for now, but this week Joel starts "Super Hero" camp and he is just SURE that they are going to teach him how to fly! I can't wait to hear what he DOES learn there.  Until tomorrow~
