Let me just tell you that this weekend was really great. I mean really!
We went out to eat on Thursday night last week, because I put a plea out on facebook for my hubby to take us out a night ahead of schedule and it worked!! Go me! I just couldn't stand the thought of cooking Thursday night. So we ate mexican at our local mexican restaurant. And can I just tell you how great it is to have a mexican restaurant in my town? I love it, and they have the greatest punch ( ha Abby). We then headed back home to watch the SEC win big!!!
Friday night, I cooked, we ate, we played Clue, I came up with the answer but Stephen won because of where he was on the board (RATS!), and we went to bed.
Saturday, after sleeping in, I fixed biscuits, sausage and gravy and then we sat around the house. The twins were invited to a birthday party and Anna and I decided to go shopping. We spent 3 hours trying on clothes, walking the mall, and just having a great girlie time. When we got home we built a fire in the backyard fire-pit and roasted hot dogs and made s'mores while listening to the first half of the Arkansas game. The kids jumped on the trampoline, while Stephen and I sat gazing into the fire listening to the radio. Such a sweet time.
Yesterday was a LONG day at church, but a great day. We had our largest attendance in Sunday School in quite a while, we had a guest preacher, which meant my family got to sit together during the worship service. That never happens, and it was so good! We also had visitation and a funeral, fed the family of the deceased, cleaned up the kitchen, and then had potluck and business meeting. Then went to the funeral home for another visitation. I left my house at 9:35 am and got home at 7:15pm. As I wrote that, I realized that many of you are working longer hours than that everyday, so me being at church for almost 10 hours isn't much. Sorry about that, it just seemed like a really long day!
I pray you have a great week!

I have a question for the sisters! Have you ever thought about doing a Q & A here on your blog? I think it would be something fun for you both, so we readers can see both of your answers.
Ok, so the real reason I'm asking is because my girls have not been getting along much lately, and I pray they have a great relationship like you two one day, and I have tons of questions for you myself, lol. As you know they are 5 years apart. Help?! :o
