This week is full! Everyday, packed! It’s Ally’s birthday week. I say week….because it’s on Wednesday (17th) and she wants to celebrate with us, her cherished family unit that night. Then, really party on Friday night with the cool people in her life known as teenager friends! At our house!
Lame! 🙂
I have to work all week. My house is disgustingly dirty. Stuff needs to be done. I’ve been sick forever. A good party requires lots of planning and cooking. Which was no big deal when I stayed home for a living. But now….it’s tricky! I need some energy & stamina! And a maid!
Also, she has some things on her wish list that just crack me up. These make her preppy daddy so happy and she wants them. He’s been a fan of these since high school (the 80’s).
The other dream item has become my ebay watchdog job! Vera Bradley sure knows how to snag a girl’s heart. This backpack is adorable! The bids are getting tight so we’ll see if we win or not. Oh the excitement of it all!
On another note….cause I like to bounce around on all topics. Two weekends ago was the Ladies Retreat at Zenas Baptist Church. It fell on the day we lost our Mamaw (so it was quite a zinger of a day). I haven’t had a chance to blog about it or post any pictures but I wanted to say it was fantastic! Those ladies know how to retreat! I felt so welcomed as their guest speaker. They were fun, warm and full of love.
God really blessed me…..and I was there for them. The Fruit of the Spirit was a great topic too. Thank you sweet friends of Zenas. I hope you plan to retreat every year!
