Well, we had a joyful weekend, how about you? We celebrated daughter #1’s belated birthday as planned.

References to donuts abounded.

We also went to a couple of estate sales, but were unsuccessful. We returned something at J. Crew and resisted buying these gold leggings for Miss Lottie.

Daughter #1 hung a picture up for me.

Try as I may, I have never been able to drive a nail into a wall. Luckily my children are all handier than I am.

The weather was glorious all weekend, so we opted to take a walk through the nearby Powder Valley conservation area instead of going to church.IMG_4291.JPGIMG_4293.JPG

After daughter # 1 headed back to mid-MO, I gabbed on the phone with daughter #2 and caught up on my household chores and the OM gassed up my car. An excellent weekend, don’t you agree?

Now we are off to the races at work–a very busy week ahead. We’ll take it one day at a time.

“Listen to your life. Listen to what happens to you because it is through what happens to you that God speaks… It’s in language that’s not always easy to decipher, but it’s there, powerfully, memorably, unforgettably.”
