The Past 2 Weeks

We have had a busy couple of weeks.

All last week Josh was doing ministry with his dad near Fredricksburg, VA.  The kids and I drove up to VA with him and spent the week with his mom.  We had a blast!  Janet went all out for "B" week and helped me with the kid's school.  They painted "B"ird houses and went on a "B" walk looking for things that started with "B".  We ate spaghetti and meat"B"alls and "B"ean burritos.  It think they've got "B" down;)  I got a chance to catch up on some sleep and just spend some one-on-one time with Micaiah.  It was such a blessing!



After Josh got back from Fredricksburg we headed down to New Sandy Creek Baptist Church to lead worship for their annual women's conference.  The speaker was Luann Prater from Proverbs 31 Ministries.  God really moved among the ladies who attended.

We also got to spend some quality time with "Grammy and Papa" while at the conference.  The pastor and his family, whom we love so dearly, have become grandparents to our kids and family to us and we always enjoy our time with them.  I can't believe I didn't get a single picture!  To say that Rainy and Zeke were SAD about leaving is an understatement!

We got home on Saturday night and boy were we all tired but we weren't done yet.

We woke up early and headed to Pageland, SC where we lead worship for South Pointe Fellowship.  It was so good to be back there and see some dear friends that we hadn't seen in over a year.  Thanks for having us back!

Let's just say that it's been a very rewarding couple of weeks.  A very tiring couple of weeks and it sure is nice to be home=)

Oh, and I did make it to Harris Teeter triples yesterday and made out big!  It's a good thing too because we didn't have much after being gone for so long.  Here are the figures...
Total before coupons:  $165.03
Total after coupons:  $84.61
Total SAVED:  $80.42, plus a $2 catalina to use toward my next purchase

Rainy's birdhouse is so pretty! Love that project. I love that Zeke picked out the one that looks like a rocketship.
