Goodbye Weekend

It's that time again...the time where we say goodbye to the weekend and hello to the week :( I feel like I'm in for a really rough week and that kinda scares me. I have been trying to pray up for this week, but I haven't done too good.

This weekend was a Mommy and Maddy weekend. We woke up early...ok late Saturday morning and got ready for the day. I originally planned on going straight outside when we woke up, but it was WAY too cold for me. I let Maddy watch tv while I got coupons ready for the store. Maddy decided she wanted to help me organize...she did a great job!

After we were all ready we went to the gas station to get mommy coffee (french vanilla cappuccino) and Maddy some juice and candy. After we got our goodies we headed up to my mom's house to let her dog out for her. My mom and step dad took off early Saturday morning to Knoxville for the Tennessee/Alabama game. My mom is a TN fan, but my step dad is an AL fan. My mom surprised my step dad with the tickets for his birthday. They had a lot of fun and got to experience the whole package. Next year we may be heading down to Tuscaloosa for the TN/AL showdown...it all depends on how Maddy is by that time.

After letting Misty out we headed back home for nonstop play time. We went back and forth from her swing to her glider back to her swing back to her glider and every now and then go down the slide. Her picnic table got put together this weekend as well, so she now has ALL of her swing set put together. After we played outside we had to go to the store and then let Misty out one more time. We didn't make it back home to see the kick off, which was at 7:45 but we did get to see from the 2nd quarter on. I told Maddy that's where her Nana and Pops were and from that point on she was very interested in watching the game. She got her baby and put her right beside her and then sat down next to me and watched. I was surprised at how long her attention span was. She kept asking me what happened. I started cheering the first time and she asked what I was doing. I told her the Vols scored. The next time I started clapping she turned around and asked me if they scored...it was so cute. We never got to see my mom and step dad on tv.

We had a very powerful church service this morning. Our pastor's prayer had me so ready for the skies to open up and see Jesus' face calling us home. Jesus is coming back for us one day. We don't know the time, day, or hour but we do know He's coming back. I am beyond ready for that day to come. My pastor also got me to thinking. He was talking about when the rapture happens...gave a scenario of your colleague coming to talk to you and they see nothing but your clothes. They wonder what happened to you then figured it out and said I wished you would have told me. I don't want anyone who comes in contact with me to have to say that same thing. I have really missed our church these past six years...it is such a blessing to be back :)

I hope you all had a great weekend and have a great day!
