Another busy week and weekend to report..A little slow at the beginning of the week, thank goodness. I had a wonderful dinner on Thursday night with some friends from Mops. I worked half a day on Friday then went to Sav-Mor, Aldi and Walmart to get groceries. (milk at Aldi is dirt cheap, well at least compared to Walmart and Bilo). Friday night me, Hubs and K* went to eat at Logans then drove around and looked at houses. Saturday we got up early and went and picked up nana for the March of Dimes walk. My good friend Krissy works for Spinx, so we walked with the Spinx team. I am very proud to say we walked the whole 6 miles with K* and Abigail in tow. It was my workout for the month....haha. Needless to say we rested the rest of the day Saturday. Sunday morning we went to church, another wonderful sermon by Pastor Carter out of Genesis 12 and how Abraham listened to God and obeyed what he said. Nana made us a wonderful lunch then we headed home to wash clothes and get ready for Monday. Lots of fun stuff this week too, Silpada party on Tuesday night, B-day shopping for DS on Wednesday, Mops Meeting on Thusday, DS's birthday dinner on Friday night, downtown market on Saturday morning, church on Sunday. Then next week is BIRTHDAY week.....yeah!!!

oops...

I almost forgot, check out the Gosselin's website www.sixgosselins.com , they truly are a remarkable family, who loves the Lord.

Wow..I'm tired

I honestly think I could fall asleep right now, as I type. We have had a VERY CRAZY weekend, well it started Thursday. I got off work at 5:30 and hurried home to change and out to RBC to have the volunteers meeting to prep for Jon and Kate. K* hung out with Grandma cause daddy was in Columbia with some clients. Finally got home Thursday night around 9:30, ate an apple with some peanut butter then off to bed. Dropped K* off at Nana's on Friday morning then off to work. Was very lucky to be able to leave work at 1:30 on Friday instead of 2. Headed home to change clothes then up to RBC to set up for the 1st night of Jon and Kate Plus 8. I must say they were WONDERFUL and such an inspiration. We have K*, and DS every other weekend and are hoping for a third, and I get kinda overwhelmed just thinking about it. And here Jon and Kate are with 8..yes 8. We were so humbled and grateful to have them take time away from their precious family to come and share their testimony with us. What a wonderful testimony it was , it is so refreshing to see a family who has their plate COMPLETELY full (Their TLC show, speaking engagements, writing their book, taking care of their 8 children, working and still managing to develop a wonderful marriage) and continues to put all their faith in the Lord. They rely fully on Him to get their family through, for he is always in control. Thank you Jon and Kate. Saturday morning off to help Tiffany get shower stuff ready. Saturday night back to the last Jon and Kate show. Off to church on Sunday then straight to set up for Tiffany's shower at 2. Then finally at 5:30 home again with the family. Hubs went out to pick up pizza while K* and I went for some much needed mother daughter time. We took a walk around the neighborhood, we counted 4 squirrels, 3 cats, a whole lot of birds and 1 bunny rabbit. I am so happy it is finally getting warmer outside, can't wait for all the fun stuff K* and I get to do this summer. So now off to bed I go for some much needed rest. A verse to think about, it is Kate Gosselin's life verse, and I have been studying it over and over and over this weekend. It has been a wonderful reminder that we must trust in Him for everything, whether it is a life changing decision or an everyday decision. He knows what is best for us, and will lead us where he wants us to go, how comforting.

"Trust in the Lord with ALL your heart, and lean not on your own understanding; in ALL your ways acknowledge Him, and He shall direct your paths."

Proverbs 3:5-6

A Fun Filled Family Weekend

Well we have had a fun filled weekend for sure. We made our regular Friday night trip to Stevi B's for pizza and games, then down a few doors to check out all the animals at the pet store. Saturday, K* and I went with Nana to the Southern Kids Fest at the Carolina First Center. K* has been on a Dora kick lately, so we were very excited to be able to see Dora and Diego. K* won some fun prizes and we got some free gifts. After the Kids Fest we headed to Little Ceasers for a wonderful $5 Hot N Ready. Then off to nap time...how nice. Then me and K* went shopping. We got some new pj's and a new pair of Crocs. Daddy had a very nice day playing golf with some friends, he surprised us with McDonalds for dinner. We went to church this morning, Pastor Carter did a wonderful sermon out of Genesis Chapter 4 (Cain and Abel). Then Nana took us all out to lunch at Don Pablos. K* loves chips and dip. And now I am happy to say K* and I are about to lay down for a much needed nap. What a fun family weekend, can't wait to see whats in store for next weekend...till then.... Oh by the way check out this really cool site, great kids clothes, they were at the Southern Kids Fest. http://www.bumbleboutique.com/ Some of their stuff is kinda expensive, but we got K* a really cute bathing suit and cover up for $17.

The First

The first offical blog....here goes.....tons of new stuff going on now. To start, Hubs and I are trying for another baby(I know...exciting..I'm so happy I could dance on the rooftops). I will also be leaving work in May to stay home with Kenzie..could it get any better?? Well it just might...we have a few other changes going on in our family......more news to come later. Kenzie is growing, faster than I would like, it seems like just the other day, she was born. Kinda sad if you think about it, our little angel is turning into her own little person.. She has such a wonderful personality though. She is such a happy, easy going child......here are some recent pics....
