Weekending

This weekend was a relaxed one. I wasn't feeling all too well. My sinuses are acting up along with allergies so I stayed in all day Saturday. I just enjoyed my day, my boys, my Nick and our borrowed Miss.Maggie.

Maggie and Ethan really are buddies.
She even sits by him while he creates window art.



Next Little E helped me roll out tortillas. He's the best little roller EVER!
Yup he did that below ALL BY HIMSELF!



Sunday's after service we spend with John and Debbie and we love it.
The guy's watch ball, Debbie and I must annoy them laughing loudly about silly things while they're trying to watch the game :).
Little E plays Noggin on-line and Z plays a game grandpa has for the Wii, this weeks treat was Star Wars....Z is a chip off the old block when it comes to games.
E and I decided to take a late evening walk around the neighborhood.
He collected leaves of all colors.
And well stuffed them in his pockets oh E!




I felt uneasy allowing him to do this since below there's a sidewalk.
So I allowed it and used myself as a shield, nope wasn't going to let this rug rat hurt himself. He was having so much fun I had to let him do it.





Handing his momma leaves.



Just a little camera fun.



Though I was under the weather our weekend was lovely. Lately I have to remind myself how to just relax, destress, keep focus on what I love and what matters.....my family.
Times are tough and I find myself on some days worrying to tears.
I'm starting to think those are wasted tears, why worry so much when I have so much to be grateful for.
I know I will have to be reminded once in a while, but that's okay as long as I don't forget.

Liza- my life verse: Proverbs 3:5-6

Trust in the Lord with all of your heart
Lean not on your own understanding
In all of thy ways acknowledge Him
And He will direct thy paths.

Every hero in the Bible went through tough times, including and especially Jesus. The good Lord is looking for people who will give their lives to Him, and trust Him no matter what happens. Trust in the Lord-He has a good plan for you guys. The place Nick is in now has taught him everything he needed to learn to go into business for himself, how to sell, pricing his work, detailing interiors etc. Of course Nick could end up working there for years making more money than ever...I don't know, only God does. Jesus said not to worry about what we can't control, which is easier said than done, but is so true.

Thank you John, I will copy and keep this verse. No better reminder than reading the words of God.

One more thing, if Nick and I seemed annoyed last sunday it was with the Cowboys, not you guys.
