Wonderful Week

This week has been a wonderful week which is surprising since we are in the midst of house selling/buying/"Where does God want us to be?". Last Sunday a group went to play Ultimate Frisbee and it was so much since it was a group of us that hung out more when John and I were engaged. It was so crazy to be hanging out with the same group with which we studied Theology of the Body so many years ago and now 3 couples were there now with their children and one was now a brother with the Franciscans who was visiting for the week. Also that weekend John installed a new door which he and my brother-in-law had found on the side of the road. ( In know we always find things like this ... leater couches, bedroom set and mattress,etc. I am thankful that God takes cares of us.)Tuesday we got to go to Reconciliation. We went late because they were doing the Parish mission before and new that our toddlers would not sit quietly. As we arrived the priests were finding their spots and one slipped into the door right next to the Narthex and John and I were able to tag team confessions. Thursday my friend Anna had some moms over for play group. We decided to begin and end with prayer intentions and talk about how God present in our weeks. It was so uplifting. I had to drop off a letter for my mom and she was headed out to lunch. Normally I cannot go with her due our strict napping schedules. We were just at the right time so we a wonderful time at Olive Garden and the kids laughed and played the whole time. Charles covered himself in pasta and Annie filled up on Andes mints. Friday we hired our neighbor who is a landscaper and he and John haved worked their behinds off these past 3 days to make this house look so darlin. It really looks like a completely different house. Mary came over and graciously took Annie to the "MAN STORE" to get more supplies. Tommorow I will blog of that adventure. Maybe I will have Mary guess blog. My friend Angela came over and we painted the dining room till 1 in the morning, but had a blast chatting and laughing, maybe it was the paint fumes because I know painting is not supposed to be that much fun. Kate and Monica came and played with the kids, played wii and kicked my butt, and took the kiddos to Mc Donalds. Anyways this is what happens when I blog once a week. I will stop now, but we truly appreciate all of our family and friends who are always around to make our lives so good.
