The Weekend

We had a fun and good-busy weekend. Friday we just stayed home. Saturday we stayed home and cleaned and played with the kids. I made a run to the grocery store. Saturday night Jamie and I helped in Kidzone. Sunday Jamie had to go shovel the walks and parking lot at Calvary. Then we went to church in the morning to attend a Small Group Leadership Training class. Not looking at leading a small group in the near future...but possible next fall? I've very excited about the possibility and have some great ideas I hope people will like and want to be a part of. After church we went to the mall. It amazes me how we can spend 4 HOURS at the mall without doing any shopping. Well...we did make a quick trip into Old Navy and Scheels. But we didn't buy anything. We ate lunch, walked down to playland (stopping at Scheels and Old Navy on the way), bought pretzel bites, and walked back. Somehow that took 4 hours. The girls made some friends at Playland this time. They all played together the whole time we were there. They were hugging, chasing, and tackling each other. It was really cute.

The boys turned 9 months last week. Vaughn is trying to talk like crazy. Lincoln and Gavin are squealing and trying to crawl. All three can sit up on their own if we sit them up, but they can't get into the sitting position on their own. They are starting to consume huge amounts of food...especially Vaughn.

Lucy informed me yesterday that her favorite supper is cream cheese with buddig beef mixed in and spread on crackers. Gracie is starting to become a picky eater like Lucy. Very frustrating.

Work has been so busy ever since our interview on CNBC last month. I feel like I can't get caught up...even if I did work 8 hours!

Jamie took the girls sledding Friday night. They had so much fun!

Tonight there is a "visitation/celebration" for Libby Van Winkle who died last week. Very sad/tragic. It's so strange to really believe that she's not here.
