We had a GREAT Thanksgiving! We went to our friend's house. Then after all the eating, they came to our house and put up shelves in the garage. Helped us organize a bit better and cleared things so I could get my car in the garage. It is really amazing and humbling to have friends who will help out like that. So I'm so happy! I could actually stand in my garage for hours if I could get away with it. The Hills have been such a tremendous blessing to our family. I hope that some day we can be just as generous as them.
Friday- I got up at 4:30AM to go to Toys R Us. The store was supposed to open at 6:00; and I got there about 4:45. It was COLD! I jumped around trying to stay warm and wondered how in the world I was going to make it for another hour and 15 minutes. But to everyone's surprise Toys R Us opened an hour early. Yipee! So I got in and got everything that I was going for.
side note: Hey Doris- I want to stage a picture, I have one in mind that I would like to be taken, can you come over after Christmas and shoot some pics?
Saturday- VERY VERY Productive day! I got my van cleaned out (big huge deal for those of you who know me); weeded one section in the front yard (even bigger deal); mopped the Kitchen floor and did tons and tons of laundry. Saturday was just a gorgeous day outside!
Sunday- We got to church late, so I went straight into teaching. For coming up with a lesson plan on the spot, we really did a great job. Came home, took a nap, got up to make a delicious meal for small group and realized that I didn't have time to cook it. So we will have good dinner tonight.
The kids have been really bad about getting up in the middle of the night and waking us up. So we haven't had much sleep lately. We use to say, come get us if you have to go to the bathroom. So they started using that and getting a drink of water as an excuse. Last night we said you are NOT allowed to come in our bedroom. Do not wake us up. And it worked. (I think) So hopefully this is not just a one night fluke.
Wow what a weekend! I say it was great and productive. Greg says it was stressful! I wonder who was watching the kids. :)
