This Weekend

What a busy weekend! Garrett and I had the chance to stay at the Harrington's house Friday and Staturday to watch the kids. I can't believe how much energy little kids have! They are like the energizer bunny. haha.
We had fun playing at the park, playing soccer in the back yard, going on walks, playing board games, and watching a couple movies.
It was kind of fun getting to spend the night in a different place for a few nights. But by Sunday morning I was worn out! It made me realize that I am very lucky to be able to have the freedom to do what I want to in my free time. I think that I should try and treasure this freedom I have right now because once I have baby it is gone! haha.
It was fun, though.
We got back home after church on Sunday and had to unpack, clean the house, and go grocery shopping. Once that was done we put taco stuff together for our small group at 5.
This was our first meeting for the new "semester" and we have DOUBLED in size from last time! Last week our group had 7 people...we now have 16! Wow.
It is always kind of awkward meeting people for the first time. But it turned out well and I think that it will be a really great study and group.
After our small group (that got over at 7) I went to go clean 2 offices. THEN Garrett and I watched a movie with some friends.
I didn't end up going to bed until 1 AM.
After such a busy weekend I am pooped! haha. :)
I am looking forward to today. Just doing a few chores, the laundry, and a little shopping for some gifts. Ah, so relaxing.:)

That's great that your small group has grown so much. Ours gained two new couples and I know what you mean about being nervous. We've never met them so I hope they are a good fit and they feel comfortable. I hope your group continues to do well!

Wow! Is your small group still meeting at your house?
Yes, kids take a lot of energy!! But they are more rewarding than anything. :)

No, our small group definitely isn't meeting at our place anymore! That would be awful! haha.
We are meeting in the church modulars (sp?).
Yeah, despite all of the work and energy kids definitely are worth all of it. I still can't wait to have my own! I am just taking in the freedom to relax right now. haha.
