Friday thoughts

It is Friday! I couldn't be more excited about that this week. It seems like it has been a reallllly long week to me.

I am excited about tomorrow! Nothing to do but hang out with my favorite little boy in the world and watch the Duke game!

Tomorrow night we are going out with some of Justin's coworkers. We are going for Japanese!!

Sunday is going to be awesome. I can't wait to see what the new updated toddler room is going to look like. Thanks to Devin and Joni we are updating and sprucing that room up a bit. Also the new curriculum is in for toddlers and elementary! Cant wait for Sunday!

Anyone else ready for the weekend?

I know its close, but I am sooooo ready for Friday around 6 to be here. I am ready to relax. Does anyone else feel like winter has been extremely long this year?

I cant believe I havent said this yet!

To all FreedomKidz Volunteers:
All of you are Awesome! I can honestly say that when I realized that I was not going to be able to be there this past Sunday, I had no fears. I was completely confident that all of you are such high capacity volunteers that you would have it all down and covered and you did. I have heard all positive remarks of how you all came together and you wouldnt have even known that anything was any different. Y'all are awesome! Thanks for picking up my slack this week. I will come up with something to show my appreciation. Thanks for all you do!

It is 9 am and today has been a pretty good day so far. Today is the first day I dont feel like my head is in the clouds. I finally feel like things are getting back to normal. We are starting a new series in curriculum for Elementary and preschool and I think the kids are going to really enjoy these next series. During the brief seconds I was at Freedom on Sunday, little Bonnie was talking to me and she saw the case with the preschool curriculum and she kept telling me that she wanted to watch LIL K! She was upset that she had to wait until church started. That was so cool to see that the prechoolers are really enjoying their program as well. THanks Bonnie for the encouragement!

Its a new week!

It is Monday morning and I have never been so glad for the past week to be over! It was the longest week ever~ IT started out great with Freedom Church, but quickly went sour. By monday night Justin and I were sick. Tuesday we were both home from work because of the sickness, but i started feeling better so I thought I was over it. Justin sick and home on Wednesday. Wednesday night, the cough started... by Thursday morning my whole entire body HURT. Once I finally managed to get out of bed, 4 minutes later... I blacked out and collapsed on the floor. Justins parents came and got the baby boy so he wouldn't get sick. BY Friday we were at the pediatrician and Baby J had an ear infection. The weekend was so sad we were all 3 sick. Everyone is on road to recovery now and I am so glad that week is over! The Flu is not fun, just in case you were wondering...

Random thoughts Today!

We had dinner out with some friends last night, and we had a really good time. The only thing missing was Justin! He was at home sick(or playing Guitar Hero III!) We will have to do it again soon! We heard some really encouraging news today regarding our little man! I have to give God the credit for that, because it was above my expectations and requests. I am excited about Sunday! Duke plays Miami tonight! It is weird that during football season I would always pull for Miami against Duke and during Basketball season I will always pull for Duke against Miami! It feels weird when those games occur! But tonight, Lets Go Duke!

Freedom Kidz

Yesterday at Freedomkidz went awesome! It went really smoothly and I think the children had a blast! One of the highlights of the morning was that the new printers for our checkin system WORKED! What can I say, God was at Freedom yesterday! There are some really cool things that are going to take place at Freedomkidz in upcoming weeks. Still working thru details and logistics but it will be a blast!

On a little side note, FreedomKidz has the most awesome, high-capacity, unselfish group of volunteers! All of them are such a blessing to Freedom, me, and to all the children in Freedomkidz. They serve so faithfully every week without complaining but rather with a joyful spirit. Thanks to all of you from me, Freedom Church, and all of the Freedomkidz children. What would we do without you!

Friday!

I am so happy that today is Friday~ I am ready for the weekend. I am ready to simply play with my sweet little boy and get some housework done! You know you ar eold when you can't wait to just clean your house.... Its sad! I hope everyone had a great Valentines Day yesterday!

Valentines Day!

Today is Valentines Day as you all know and I am so excited about dinner tonight! As I mentioned yesterday, we are going to Buffalos tonight and I am so excited about that! I know most every woman thinks I am absolutely crazy, but Buffalo's is honestly me absolute favorite restaurant! I know I am weird.. On top of going to my favorite restaurant, I get to go with my favorite men too, what could be better?!!

One of the most refreshing things to me is to hang out with awesome friends. Justin, James and I hung out with ZAch and Jessi Brown and their boys last night and it was so much fun. We had great food, and we played games while watching The Biggest Loser and some of American Idol. Thanks Zach and Jessi for having us over, We had a blast!

Valentines Day is tomorrow! While most everyone is probably headed to some fancy expensive restaurant I have requested Buffalos! I know I am weird but I couldn't be any more excited. I love that place they have awesome wings and fries and I have been told their Fried Cheesecake is a must. We will be trying that Fried Cheesecake tomorrow! Am I a complete loser for wanting to go to Buffalos on Valentines?

Extreme Tiredness

It is never a good sign when at 10:30 you have already fallen asleep at your desk! I am extremely tired today, I would really like to go home and go to sleep! That would be so awesome!

Let the teething begin....

Our little man has been showing the signs of teethingness? for quite a few weeks now, but I think it is only a matter of days before he is officially no longer toothless. WHich that is very exciting and cute, but also means that the next few nights have a great potential to be VERY long! And also a few days of guzzling caffeine to stay awake at work! I wouldn't trade it for anything though, he is such a huge blessing!
