"You are not here to live a mediocre to average life; you are here to live an amazing life, a miraculous life. If it weren't for your challenges, there would be no miracles. You must do that which seems impossible, for it is only in the impossible that miracles are had." - author unknown, but very respected

Week of 3-17-19

ST. PATRICK'S DAY
My favorite day came and went :).  It was a huge success!  We had our Lucky Charms with surprise green milk for breakfast.  Everyone tried to wear green to church.  We learned that Molly doesn't have ANY green clothes!  She wore a cute green bow in her hair.  Nate wowed us all with Pastrami and sauerkraut sandwiches on marble rye!  SO DELICIOUS!!!  We really couldn't get enough of those!  Then, we did a fun, Sunday version, of our Leprechaun hunt for the gold.  They had to find most of their clues from the Come Follow Me lesson.  It was fun.  They found the pot of gold and ate it all evening.  Then I surprised everyone with their green treats and green note with the 17 things I love about them as they woke up from naps and such.  Lots of fun!  I just love this day!  3-17-19









TEACHER PREP DAY- NO SCHOOL!
We had a nice relaxing day off!



PRODUCE
Produce was not my favorite this week.  We got three new people and had a mix up with one of our regulars.  I ended up with an extra basket.  Then our new people took FOREVER to get their baskets.  One didn't come til the next day.  Which was really annoying.  I am having a hard time convincing myself that I want to keep doing it.  3-19-19

DINNER WITH JEN
Charity got to go to dinner with Jen.  When Jen showed up she handed me a bag with a bunch of cute CUTE onesies for our new little girl!  She's so thoughtful!  Charity and Jen went to Applebee's.  I'll have to have her tell about it.  3-19-19

PARABLE
We created our own parables for study time tonight.  Very cool!  I'm always so impressed with how much my kids can grasp.  They did awesome.  I wish I had made copies of theirs so I could document them.  3-19-19

BRAD AT SOUTH END
Brad's wrestling coach ended up getting an exhibition tournament for South End.  This meant that Brad was going to wrestle!  We were totally excited!  Nate and I went over to Farmington High as soon as we could and watched Brad wrestle twice.  One right after the other which was a total bummer.  He lost the first one because of points, and then was so tired and not rested at all for the second one against his friend, he lost that one too.  Such a bummer!  But he did great!  We have been so proud of him and all the hard work he has put into this sport! It's been a lot of fun to learn and get into it with him.  3-20-19

CHARITY REGIONAL SOLO AND ENSEMBLE
We got to go to Davis and hear Charity perform for her Solo and Ensemble.  She did amazing!  Even found out right after that she made it to State!!  Well done Charity!!!  3-20-19

INSTACARE- CONCUSSION FOR KELLY
We finally sucked up our pride (and desire to keep Kelly in her games) and took her in for her headaches.  Turns out she has a concussion and will not be able to play for a while.  Such a bummer!  She was super sad and so am I.  We will be going to see Sports Medicine soon, so we'll see what we can do about it.  Such a bummer!!  3-20-19



MOLLY SHARING HER BED WITH MISTY.


I love watching Nate and Molly color!  So cute!


Erika and I spent a couple hours cleaning the pantry out!  Looked AWESOME!

FATHER'S AND SONS- MARSHMALLOW MARCH
The boys all went camping in the freezing cold- got to go shooting on their way up there and then slept in the van and then had marshmallow war before leaving Saturday.  Sounded like they had a lot of fun- I will have to have them write about it.

GIRLS NIGHT
Since the boys were away, the girls had to play :).  We watched Brave Little Toaster as soon as they left- Molly had been dying to show it to the girls.  She fell asleep.  Then Erika and I played cards while we waited for Kelly's Lacrosse game to end.  Once her game was over, she and Charity came home- Charity left with friends and then the rest of us girls went to Applebee's for dinner!  Erika's choice.  That was a lot of fun.  Molly was doing funny stuff- little routines for each bite she took, she would climb down from our bar height chairs and run around and then climb back up... it was funny.  Our waitress was a little annoying, asking if we needed anything like WAY TOO often!  Like before she even brought us anything.  Which is not a big deal, but funny.  Memorable.  After dinner we stopped at Target for some shopping!  We got everyone some new clothes :).  I even found some maternity jeans.  They might need some altering, but I think they will work.  We talked molly into a cute yellow outfit and then a yellow dress as well.  Erika found a super soft jacket to replace her blue one she left in Vegas and a cute blue outfit.  Kelly found a "Yoga sweatshirt" and a "Nostalgia" t-shirt, both super soft of course.  And we found an adorable peach with white polka dot shirt and little kitties-on-the-knees-capris outfit for the baby!  I love it!  Might be her come home outfit since it's size Newborn.  My favorite size :).  That was a lot of fun.  We skipped treats because we were still full with dinner and came home for a movie.  The girls chose Peabody and Sherman.  Love that movie.  We had planned on watching the Notebook, but it was blocked on Vidangel.  Bummer.  Charity was hanging out with her friends the whole evening.  That bummed us out a little, but I guess we knew this day would come eventually.  In the mofninr, we went and got scones at Granny Annies and then played cards for a while and then we went to Hobby Lobby to browse and get some fun things to do.  Lots of shopping and lots of fun!  Then we came home and bummed around until the boys got home!  3-22-19--3-23-19
