Last week was so full of events that it is Monday of this week and I am just now posting. I go to a church that loves to have revival. We had prayer meeting last Monday...... On Tuesday I went to see Carrie Underwood at the Tallahassee civic center which was fantastic fun! I made the trip with Tonya ( a long time friend, I used to be her nanny but in the process we became family and now we're practically sisters) and Dianne, another good friend and co-worker. Craig Morgan and Sons of Sylvia were good opening performances but Carrie rocked!!
I did however get a text during the concert that Mema Joyce had fallen and broke her shoulder. It made me sad but, I was assured everything was fineand with such a busy week ahead I could only check on Mema Joyce over the phone until things calmed down. Wednesday night was back to church for the beginning of our meeting with Elder Stephen Bloyd. He did an amazing job and we truly had a spirit filled sermon! Thursday night was back to church again except I was running so late I just decided not to go. It was also my brother and Tonya's brother Eric's birthday. I delivered a wedding present, a graduation present and then went to Applebee's for dinner for Eric's birthday. None of it was planned but it turned out right nice. Friday was back to church and this time I made it. I just forgot my purse. Not a good feeling. I spent the night with the Tucker's, we stayed up late talking and hanging out and doing facials and we went to church again Saturday morning. The whole time truly was a blessing. I then drove home and messed around in my garden a while then our whole family went out to LongHorn's for Elzie's(my baby brother below with me) 24th birthday.
It was fun since we haven't all went out together in a long time.
Sunday Morning after church we all went to Leticia and Blaines....
(my sister and her husband)
home on their farm for a wonderful home cooked meal of baked ham,cream corn, peas, macaroni and cheese and rolls. We had peach ice cream for dessert. We ate on the newlyweds china which was beautiful andmade it feel more special!! Believe it or not Blaine was the main chef and it was DELICIOUS!! I loved spending time with my family over the weekend. It was nice to stop and smell the roses. Later that afternoon me and mama took a trip to get some picture frames and stopped to pick some cosmos along the way.
We visited her mama which is my mema Lessie and then we came home. Once we got home I packed my bags and headed to Mema Joyce's with this book I got earlier that day on the frame run.....................
Since Mema Joyce is all bummed out with her shoulder broke, I plan on spending the next few weeks with her and am reading this book aloud at night. Last night was our first night but so far it is really good and I can't wait to read some more tonight! It was nice to be able to calm down and finally spend some time in the sweet peace of Mema's home after such a busy week. I suspect with my staying with her things will slow down a bit for me, which I will enjoy. I am also listening to " To Kill A Mockingbird" Book on CD in my car. Since I am a busy girl it has been a real treat to get back in the car often knowing it is also story time as well as errand time. . Oh and one more thing this picture below was in my inbox when I checked my email today
My cousin Tiffany and her husband Olivier are expecting a new little boy any day now and we can not wait!!! Look at that belly! WOOOHOOO!
Ok so I still haven't updated on my garden but this morning when I stopped by on my way to work the squash blooms were open and beautiful, strawberries are intriguing, flowers are sprouting everywhere and little tomatoes are weighing down the plant so it is coming along just fine....Oh I have lettuce that needs munching on too! God's creation is amazing!!
P.S. I came up with a new Take Time Thursday event for the ladies in my family to have and sent out letters to all the girlies today! please Pray it will work out and bring us closer together!
