This past weekend, we did have a good time. I only have one event left in OKC this weekend and then I'm home for a good long while - Hooray! Our weekend started off by this being on our doorstep when we got home from work:
I was so excited to order this for Mallory. This stocking will be with us for many years to come!
Friday evening, we headed to Royse City to meet our family at Fish Camp to eat and then we went back to my parent's house. My brother, sister-in-law and baby Eva were in RC so we got to go see them!
It was chilly on Friday so Mallory got to wear her new sweatshirt. I got her whole outfit at Kid to Kid in Rockwall. I love that store and this pic - she looked so cute!
Also, she is starting to sit up so good these days. Look at her grow!
Here is our niece, Eva - sweet girl!
Saturday morning, Brian headed to Sulphur Springs with his uncle and cousin to his good friend's Jay's house to chop up some fire wood. We don't have a fire place but he's been able to give it to people who have one so that's been nice. Mallory and I headed to my hometown of Hughes Springs with my mom to go to one of our family friend's wedding shower. Our friend, Kent, is marrying his fiancee Laura Paul on Dec 17 and we won't be able to go so I wanted to get down for the shower to see them.
The shower was held at our friend's house - The Kaslings. They have a lot of land and this is what you see when you pull up to their house. It's so beautiful and everytime I go back to Hughes Springs, it makes me miss it. It is a great place to grow up!
The Groom & Bride to Be! Kent is studying to be a Radiologist and Laura is studying to be a Dermatologist - smart people!
It was fun to see so many friends. They were so happy to meet Mallory and she just sat on the couch blowing bubbles the whole time.
We couldn't go to HS without going by Joyce's house. I wish we lived closer to Joyce but we hopefully see her again around Christmas!
After seeing Joyce, we headed back home. Saturday evening, Brian and I headed to the hospital to see our friend, Ryan Ivey. Please keep him, Kati & Karlyn in your prayers. He had to have additional surgery due to scar tissue that caused problems from his first surgery from his jet skiing accident. Kati & Karlyn have both been sick so she wasn't able to get up to the hospital in the beginning b/c of the sickness. Pray she and Karlyn feel better and that Ryan continues to recover well.
Sunday, we went to church and then ate at On The Border with our SS class. Cheese Enchilada's please! I will remember what Pastor Steve said today: "I am somebody because God loves me" - Don't forget that this week - You are Somebody because God Loves You!
