Can you believe we are halfway through September? Why does this time of year fly by so fast? Probably because it's so full of things!
My friend Susan is teaching the Bible Study I am in this semester and I'm loving it. One of the reasons I love it is there are probably 40 women and at least 1/3 are over 75. The other 1/3 are empty nesters and then 1/3 of us are young moms. I love that mix of women.
We are doing Proven by Jennie Allen and I'm loving it. I had to spend about 3 hours last week sitting at the car place trying to figure out a squeak in my car so I tried to make good use of my time and get my Bible Study done. I took Will Holden with me for one of those hours and the men there told me "he was so well behaved and good". You could pick my jaw off the ground. It's not every day I get told that. I felt a little glimmer of hope!
Will Holden and I took lunch to the girls one day and ate with them. Our school welcomes parents to come and eat with kids and I'm thankful for that. I don't do it NEAR enough but it's always fun!
It was Hat day that day!
We had a "Sweet Retreat" on Thursday night at church. We had a cake buffet and a speaker. It was a great night.
I love serving with these friends. Marci and Laurie pretty much ran the whole thing and it turned out great.
Friday morning Harper's class ran the weekly assembly. Harper had two lines and did great!
My friends and I had a "Siloam Springs" Day on Friday. We went to the town that's 30 minutes away and walked around their downtown and visited stores and then ate at 28 springs. It was a really fun day.
I had to race back to pick up Will Holden and then I was the mystery reader at Hollis' class. They have one each week and no one knows who is coming but the teacher. It was a lot of fun to read to them.
We had a VERY low key weekend which was much needed. We have a lot going up in the next few weeks so I will take a relaxed weekend when I can. Hollis had her first soccer game Saturday morning and that was pretty much all we had on our agenda. Her team won - they are REALLY good. It was 200 degrees when we watched her. I was soaking wet. We spent the rest of the day around the house. Scott watched football and I cleaned house and the kids played! Very exciting stuff! :-)
Sunday was full of church. We are there most of the day but we love it.
We are ready for another week!
