It has been a good week, still hot here, and still waiting for fall temperatures, but all is well. Busy with school and cross country and life in general. Grateful for all our blessings! Take a look at our week. . .
For Valentine's day Ben gave me a card that had each month of the year on it, and he was going to get me flowers each month of the year. He has done really well remembering to do that--even if it is the last day of the month sometimes :) But a few months ago for my monthly flowers he bought and planted all these vincas in this big pot in our back yard. They have filled in and look so pretty right now! Love looking out my kitchen window and seeing them pop with color!
Mr J has been enjoying some lego sets in his spare time. We sure do love legos!
Cross country race of the week. Got a picture of Mr J running this week. In middle school they run both the girls and boys together, and it was a hot, hot day! He did a great job, though! His first season.
A picture from Miss A for this week. She and some cute roommates went to listen to a favorite speaker of ours--John Bytheway. We have several of his talks on CD and love listening to them in the car. Abigail said he was awesome to listen to and meet!
Friday night the band hosted a family BBQ and baseball watching party. We are all watching the game as we waited for the yummy food, and Miss E loves getting her picture taken :) Go Royals!
Saturday they had a craft making day at the church called Super Saturday. My girls went with me, and we made some cute stuff--getting a jump on Christmas presents!
Hope you all have a great week! Thanks for visiting!!!
Love the flowers a month idea and to have potted ones is even better because they last! Good to see Mr J out there running too. Our middle school does not have xc but I'm hoping Brandon will join the basketball team this year. Looks like a lot of great gatherings this week and how nice to get pictures from your college girl. I need to pester my son more this year for pictures from him.
ReplyDeleteSo jealous that Miss A got to meet John Bytheway. LOVE HIM! What an awesome idea to have flowers of the month. :)
