Weekend

What a weekend!!!  That's all I can say!  Harper and I were dressed and actually on our way to church and had to turn around and go home!!  I seriously think the devil just does NOT want me to go to church!!  We will DEFINITELY try again next week!!  I can't wait to go to SSCC again...I really enjoyed the service and I think Harper had a great time in his 'Class'.

I made some yummy homemade beef stroganoff for dinner tonight.....very EASY TOO!!!
BEEF STROGANOFF
-1lb ground beef (browned)
-2 cans cream of mushroom soup
-1 cans hot water
-1 dollop sour cream
-a few dashes of worcestershire

Brown beef with salt, pepper, and garlic.  Mix soup, water, sour cream, and worcestershire in bowl. Mix in with beef.  Serve over noodles.

A quick look at the week ahead.  We were suppose to have a play date tomorrow...but she had to cancel!  Oh well!  Who knows what we will fill tomorrow with!!!!  Tuesday night I'm making dinner for a fellow MOPS member who just had a baby. I'm making beef stew......which I have NEVER actually made before.  Maybe I shouldn't have signed up to take something I haven't ever made!!!!!  I will update how it turns out Tuesday night!!!!  Wish me luck!

New read

After a series of circumstances I felt extremely compeled to read "The Power of a Praying Wife"...problem was I figured I couldnt find my book (yes I already owned it and read it cover to cover BEFORE I actually ever THOUGHT about getting married....DONT ASK!!!).  Through the grace of GOD I actually found it staring me in the face about a week ago!

WOW!  What an eye opener.  God has taught me SO MUCH the last few days.  He has revealed so much about myself....when I really started out trying to change CHRISTOPHER...guess thats the way it works huh!

Catch up and play date

Wow!  Its been a crazy last week.  This past Sturday I had a Beauti Control Spa party...which went great and we had a lot of fun.  Also on Saturday Harper's Aunt Robyn (my cousin) came along with one of my other cousins Traci and they spent the night with us.  It was so wonderful having them here and catching up!  I dont know if they had as much fun as I did....but I thoroughly enjoyed their company and taking to other adults!!!!


I started keeping another child....a 3 month old!!!!!!!  WHAT WAS I THINKING?!?!?!!!!!! Ohhhh I was thinking that we could use the extra cash....thats right!  Ok, seriously its been fairly easy...hope it stays that way.  Of course Ive only had him (his name is Jackson....so if you ever see me mention Jackson NO WE DO NOT HAVE ANOTHER CHILD...just Harper) two days.  Harper seems to love having Jackson around...he loves all over Jackson and its quite sweet.  Molly just thinks geez why did yall bring another one of these into the house...and Christopher reminds her that we can give Jackson back at the end of the day!!!  haha!

So, today Harper had a play day with a sweet, adorable little girl...Hanah!  Shes a fiesty red head!  But definitely a sweet heart.  He wasnt so interested in her...but mommy REALLY ENJOYED TALKING TO ANOTHER ADULT!!!!!!!  I cooked lunch and Hanah helped me make homemade chocolate chip cookies.  I think they turned out quite yummy.

We had our second MOPS leadership meeting today...I am so excited for the new upcoming MOPS year!  We have so many amazing ideas planned for this year.  Our first registration meeting is Thursday Sepember 1. 

A friend that actually went to highschool with Christopher invited me my first time last year.  I did not instantly connect with people...but I kept going.  And because of our MOPS group I have met more people and made more friends in the last 9 months than I did in 2 1/2 years!!!  Harper and I also attended Saint Simons Community Church (and I sat with a new friend...who happens to also not be from Ga!) last Sunday...which was amazing!  I attribute all of this to MOPS!

 If you are in Brunswick or SSI or the area and are looking for a wonderful moms group message me on FB or text me or something...anything really...and I will tell you more!  If you arent in the area or dont have a preschooler...PRAY for our group!  We generally meet every other Thursday (like mentioned earlier starting September 1) at FBC Downtown Brunswick...from 9:30-12.  Child care is provided also...

Frustration

Im desperately trying to figure this blog thing out.  If I make my security settings where I have to add you (by email addresses) then it says you will eventually have to sign up for a google account to view the blog (after like 30 days or something crazy).  But if I leave it open for anyone...than ANYONE in THE WORLD can see my stuff.....ahhhhh.....WHAT TO DO!  HELP!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

New Blog

Through a series of events the last few months I really wanted to create a blog.  I have no idea why.  But im kind of thinking just a random blog about whats going on in our life here in Brunswick.  What God is doing in our life.  And maybe some other random things...for instance...after having Harper in October a friend Christopher went to school with invited me to MOPS (Mothers of Preschoolers) and I have learned so much through the people in this group...and have made some amazing friends!!  THANKS ANNA!!!!  Hopefully there will be more blogs in my future!
