Sushi, Sunshine & Yard Sales #2....




Happy Birthday, Maddie!!!   I'm soooooo sorry I forgot to put this on here yesterday!!  But...we didn't forget your birthday!!  Look for a surprise in the mail!!!







Sunday after church...

Charli was needing a sushi fix BAD, and I had promised her sushi for weeks (sorry sweet girl...sometimes things work out--just not in the time we want them to! :)  so the call for "playtime" went out!  Me, Lu, Charli, Molli, Mother, Jackie, Sheila, Alexis, Jennifer and Addy chowed down at Fuji!  Mmmmmmm!!!  Check out this picture of Molli...I think we have created another "sushi monster"!   Aaaarrrrggghhh!!!  LOL!


We left there (stuffed!) and headed to Oxford Lake to meet up with the rest of the crew!  The weather was so beautiful. The high was forecast for around 72°.  The wind was blowing and it was just slightly cloudy, so it never got "hot"!  Oh my...I can't describe what fun we all had.  The kids were running in 20 different directions.  I started out chasing Molli around, but Lu took over that job :) !  Charli and Addy made me their "best friends for a day" and pushed me to my limit!!!  I'm 50 girls...give an old lady a break!!!!   The monkey bars are REALLY fun...I had forgotten!!!  Mother, Jackie and Jennifer "camped out"...but that's OK, Jennifer had on a dress (could have gotten us thrown out if she got on the monkey bars!!) and Mother and Jackie became the official photographers!


So, we ended up with...Mother, Jackie, Me, Lu, Charli, Molli, Alexis (Sheila and Truffles ran!), Jennifer, Addy, Kim, Katie, Charlee-Brooke, Kash, Morgan, Maddy, Mallory and Anna (Rob, Alicia, Sonny & Joanne worked at the new house!!).

I have NO idea who the man is behind and between Morgan and Linzy...I think it's our stalker!!  Hahaha!!   Barry, Angie and Peyton...WE MISSED YOU!!! 

Me and Mimi-Me!  OK...draw up the papers--she's mine!
What a wonderful weekend!  I've needed that so much for the past couple of months!  Just what the doctor ordered!!  I know everything won't always be easy...but when they are hard, I'm going to look at these pictures and SMILE...knowing the good times are coming!!!  I also now know that Gods timing is perfect...

Mawmaw...you MADE these girls day!!!
When God permits His children to go through the furnace, He keeps His eye on the clock and His hand on the thermostat.  His loving heart knows how much and how long.  (1 Peter 1:6-7)   --Warren Wiersbe

WOW!!!!




I love you all dearly!!!

  2. And I absolutely LOVE the pictures from that day at the park, forgot to put that up above! I'm having a crazy time trying to figure out how to join this site to comment on your blog :) I think in the process so far, I've created 3 or 4 profiles of various kinds :) So worth it, this is great!
