This week the title of my post spilled out of my mouth numerous times! We had a busy and fun week. We visited friends who,three weeks ago, welcomed a new baby girl into their home...and I LOVED holding that precious baby girl. My kiddos did too! Then on Thursday we got together with our homeschool group for a fun pizza making/ resturaunt tour at a local pizzeria. It was SO yummy. The favorite part of the tour for my kids was the 9 degree freezer they got to go into! We then played with friends at the park that afternoon. I went out that night with a new friend for coffee and chatting...yeah, we chatted three hours away and didn't realize until we were kicked out of Borders Books! Thank you Lord for new friends to be known by and to love! Then, Friday we hit the local trails with some other friends...mommas walked with little ones in strollers while the olders rode their bikes. And, finally, today, we had a real bonafide Yard Sale! We didn't do too shabby but the greatest part was the relationships that were built between us and our neighbors here. God is at work...please be praying.
So, all of that to say I didn't have my camera for ANY of it! What a HUGE bummer. And, each time, I meant to grab the camera, I just sorta, uh, forgot it by the time I got to the car. I think I just need to chuck it in my bag and keep it there! PJ did manage to get a few shots of one of his GI Joe guys though! (that is his fine handiwork above!)
On another note, I have been completely exhausted since this time change went into effect. It's been four years since I've had to totally adjust my body clock every fall and spring! I remember as a kid looking forward to the fall back mode...an extra hour of sleep and all, but when you have small kids...it has a maddening effect!!! Anyone else feel the same way? I will say it's been good for homeschooling!!! We are done some mornings by 9:30 (because it feels like 10:30!). So, I guess it's not all bad.
Well, it's off to bed for me. I hope all out there will have a blessed Lord's Day tomorrow.

Wow, the changing of the clocks could be CRAZY for kids. What a revelation. Please tell PJ I appreciate his photography skills. Love you and all your family. Thanks for sharing.

I can just see you saying, "I forgot my camera!". It's so Crystal; I love it. I was overwhelmed when reading this about how faithfully God is providing community for you! Wow! Have fun and enjoy all the goodness, friend.
It sounds like you are really settling in and enjoying your new home. I hear you were in OP over the weekend. I hope you had a great time visiting family.
