My Life Lately

I know you are all disappointed in me.... I am disappointed in myself :-(



I humbly seek your forgiveness. Please.!? Do I have it?

Thank you. I really appreciate it!
I will do my best to not disappoint you like that again.


Now, on to my life lately. I have checked my calendar and I will attempt to bring you up to date.
My last informative post was back on July 8th, so I really needed a reminder of what has been keeping me from my blog.
Are you ready?

We finished VBS on the 9th, with 21 children and I really enjoyed not having it on Friday. I think if we are able to VBS next year, I am going to suggest only having it for 4 days. There was just something about it that was fabulous.

We then spent Friday through Monday at my in-laws. My mother/sister-in-law and myself spent some time Saturday shopping for new bedding in their spare room. We went to church with them on Sunday and then went to a small county fair. We spent the afternoon with my father-in-law and our SD relatives watching a tractor pull. It was a lot of fun and everyone seemed to enjoy themselves. For some, it was the first tractor pull.

A Busy Week

Last week we were away Monday night until Friday morning. We came home, unpacked, repacked and left to spend time with T's family. We then spent Friday and Saturday with them and enjoyed every minute!

We came home Saturday night, unpacked (again) showered and got ready for church. We then spent all of Sunday at church preparing for Vacation Bible School.

Monday, the children and I ran errands all day gathering last minute items for crafts. We arrived home just 30 minutes before it was time to leave for VBS.

Tuesday, Grandma came to visit and we spent the day together. We had to birthday shop for T. Again, we were out most of the day but this time we were able to spend about an hour home before it was time to leave.

Today I spent the day with my mother-in-law and sister-in-law, shopping for new bedding and curtains. We had a fun day together even though we weren't very successful with the shopping! The children spent the day at home with their uncle and cousins and I believe they had a much better time than if they had gone shopping! I think today, we were home about 40 minutes before we needed to leave.

The biggest, most important thing to happen...today is T's birthday! In our 4o minutes, we were able to celebrate. Nothing too elaborate, but enough to be classified as a celebration.

HAPPY BIRTHDAY, T! We love you very much and we are so thankful for you!

Tomorrow, as of right now, I believe we are staying home. I am not counting on it, but I am hoping for a fairly quiet day.

VBS is going well, the first two days we had 14 children and tonight we had 20! We are so blessed to be having VBS and are thankful God brought us this opportunity.

This is where I will be this week.

Last week I was out of town.

I hope some week to be back to a more normal routine.

Normal....right!

Have a great week everybody!
