weekend reflection~

Family~

• Amanda is in Canada! She has been calling & texting daily to tell me of her adventures. She has been shopping, rode a subway, had dinner at interesting places, and is sleeping in a college dorm room on the eighth floor! She is having a good time. She said it is odd to be in a place where everyone speaks french. She cannot read the street signs, etc. The group she is with learned songs in french for church on Sunday. She says they sound good. They have been working on the songs, memorizing the french verses for months.
• Bailey & Emelia are home! It was funny, before they came home I had folded the last load of laundry, cleaned up the breakfast dishes, made my bed... everything was so nice and tidy. That lasted about five minutes after they came home... but it is okay. We all took Izzy out for a celebratory swim.
  
• Tomorrow (Sunday) is our 18th anniversary. I think we may go out sometime tomorrow. We thought about going out last night, but were too sleepy... and tonight we talked about it again and I ended up making tacos so we didn't. We're so exciting, huh?
• Tomorrow is also father's day! I love my daddy!
  

kitchen~

• This was a boring food week, I made gyros Monday night because Amanda really likes them and was leaving right after dinner...
• I cooked Tuesday and Thursday and matt and I ate leftovers. Nothing exciting to report on that :o).
  
• I am still really enjoying that freezer! I would recommend this little size to anyone looking at them because it is perfect.

blogville~

• My SIL, Ann, saw that I was thinking of a redo on Izzy's blog and she offered her assistance. It looks so cute. I had played around with a header and she added to that and did a background too. You should pop over and check it out. THANKS Ann!!!
• Is it just me or does it seem a little quiet in blogville this week?
• I'm still posting the daily diet devos. I hope I'm not the only one really being blessed by them. I am going to continue posting them until it seems that no one is reading them.
• Looks like sweet Carrie is going to pop anyday! We're all officially on baby watch :o).
  
• This Tuesday for TTT it was suggested we travel back to a memorable or first cooking experience, don't forget to come back for that.
