We had a very busy weekend around here. We started by celebrating Valentine's on Friday evening. Steven and I went out to dinner by ourselves and had a great time.

On Saturday morning, we had a pancake breakfast for the children of our church. While the breakfast was being cooked, the kids made almost 100 Valentines. After we ate, we took all the Valentines to our local nursing home to deliver them to the residents. It was such a blessing to see our children being a blessing to others!

Later that day, Dougie had his basketball game. My mom, dad, my sister Laura and her son, Chaz and my neice Mia came. Mom, Dad and and Mia planned on spending the night with us but Laura and Chaz had to head back Sat. evening. But when it came time to go, Chaz ended up staying the night too!

Dougie had a great b-ball game!

On Saturday evening, our youth hosted a dinner theater, "The Not-So Newly Wed Game." It was a great time of laughing and the dinner they served was delicious!

The youth performed different commercials and songs. One group of boys perfomed "Elvira" by the Oakridge Boys. Emma, Dougie and Mia enjoyed it so much that when we got home Sat. evening, we got an encore performance. Excuse the mess in the background.......

On Sunday, the children and youth wanted to do something special for Steven, so they asked me to get the keys to his car. This is what they did~

His car was covered with sticky note Valentine's!!! Some were so cute and funny!

This one cracks me up, "Jesus hearts you and I am trying."

Well I think that's enough about our weekend.

Love y'all!

Fit Friday, Valentine's

It seems like my "Fit Friday" has become a catch-up time!
So here's my report:
Mon.- walked 2 miles
Tues. gave blood, couldn't do any strenuous exercise, oh darn!
Wed.- renewed gym membership. 30 mins. of cardiovascular between
the treadmill and elliptical machine.
Thurs.- I think it's like against the law to workout on
Valentine's, isn't it?
Fri.- 30 mins. on the elliptical machine and lifted weights (very light weights!)
Check out Kelly, I was one step ahead of her today! I believe in strength training exercises!

Just wanted to take a moment and brag on my wonderful hubby. He made yesterday such a great day for me. It started with him getting the kids up and getting them ready while letting me sleep. When I did get up, he had cooked breakfast! After eating the scrumptious meal, he and the kids gave me the sweetest cards and some yummy chocolate. Last night, we took the kids to a dinner theater that was being put on by our youth group. And though it wasn't 'romantic', we had a great meal and laughed our heads off! And when we got home about 8:30, we couldn't wait to get the kids in bed so we could..................watch LOST!
What.....how dare you?! :0 What kind of blog do you think this is, anyway!
I'm a preacher's wife, for goodness sake! LOL!!!

I am so thankful for the wonderful, loving husband that God has given me! I am truly a blessed woman.

I hope you had a wonderful Valentine's day filled with love!
