weekly update

It has been such a full week.

Last Tuesday night, some girls from our Sunday school class met at the home of Susan Goss to have a discussion about prayer.

On Wednesday, I had my quarterly labs to check the status of inflammation in my body. I also had them add celiac labs because I still have been experiencing a few issues. 

My inflammation was dramatically down and I do not have celiac! However, I am having more trouble with lactose intolerance than I had previously thought.

It was also the last regular night of Awana for the kids! B Boy finished his 3rd book in 3 years so he will get the Sparky award! I know C Girl is getting an award too but not sure what it is called!

B Boy had a soccer game on Thursday night. His team won and had a great time!

C Girl had her first tennis lesson on Friday afternoon. It went great and she had a lot of fun!

B Boy had a baseball game that night. He got to score on his first time up to bat! So fun!

The school was also having an art auction Friday evening. C Girl's class was performing at it, so we left the boy's game a little early and headed over to that. They did a cute little performance and we "adopted" the kiddos' pet rocks.

We had a crazy storm come through on Friday night. It became stationary and hailed for 10 solid minutes! It obliterated C Girl's cabbage plant that she was growing for school :-(

On Saturday, B Boy's games were rained out so we were able to leave earlier to go to Ft. Smith to celebrate my SIL's birthday. It ended up being a beautiful day!

We had such a great time! We shopped, had dinner, and even hopped in a casino to play penny machines for a few minutes- that was definitely interesting!

Sunday was a rough day all around, but I did manage to take a few spring pictures of the kids at a local park. Sunday was also my cat, Sissy Girl's 12th birthday!!!

Yesterday, I took B Boy to the ENT to once again be evaluated for sleeping issues. He will be getting his tonsils removed this fall :-(

I had an appointment at the dentist yesterday afternoon because I chipped one of my bonded teeth last week.

 Sweet friends after a great time of fellowship.

I love these kiddos. They are growing up too fast.
