I'm still here.  Life's been a bit crazy though.  I'll give you a run down of our days since I last blogged.

Monday 11th - The girls 10th Birthday we had a party with friends at lunch time.  I made spaghetti and homemade pizza and cupcakes.  The kids and Mom's decorated journals.  Lots of fun, but lots of work.  My parents came over for supper that night as well.

Tuesday - I think we were home.

Wednesday - Left home at 7:30 a.m. to take care of my Pappaw.  Then church.  Home at about 9:30 p.m.

Thursday - Co-op at 8:45 a.m. Errands in town. Home.  Got a phone call at about 7:30 to let us know that my in-laws had decided to come up for the girls birthday and they would be here in two days!!!!

Friday - House cleaning and packing.  Delivered the kids and dogs to my mom's.  Hubby and I went out to eat and then spent a night away in a chalet at a local state park. 

Saturday - Walking and driving at the state park.  Had breakfast buffet at the park and went to a local tourist area with antique shops and such and had lunch there.  Picked up our children around 5:30 p.m. and headed home.  When we arrived we were greeted by Mother and Father-in-law and 2 nieces.

Sunday - Get up and prepare lunch in two crock pots for family birthday dinner.  Headed off to church.  Then back home with a houseful of people for lunch.  We had taco soup and white bean chicken chilli along with a cookie cake and birthday brownie.  It was a huge hit!  I think we had about 18 guests. 

Monday and Tuesday - Home trying to return to normal.  Then Tuesday night we went to some friends house to help them get some stuff done and took them a meal.

Wednesday - Pappaws and church again.

Thursday - Co-op, Errands and a visit to my friend Brenda at Wisescrappers.

Today - HOME!!!!

So, as you can see things have been so crazy around here.  I'm sad to say that it seems when our lives are so busy that what suffers the most is my time with the Lord.  I'm going to be working hard to get that back in order.  I'm also missing spending time with some of my dearest friends.  Hopefully, I will be blogging a little more often as well.  I pray you have a truly blessed day!
