Oh yeah, and since it's still Monday, might I add that I did NOT make it through a $200 trip to the grocery today with BOTH my pre-schooler AND my 2 year old in tow. I did not accomplish this by an ingenius game I thought up on the way into said grocery (whose employees all wear green vests.) I gave them a box of Jelly Belly candy and told them that they were "invisible pills." Every time they saw someone wearing green they needed to take a pill because today all pirates were wearing green. If a Pirate saw them before they took their pill, we'd be pillaged and made to walk the plank. They did a most excellent job of playing the game and you would not believe how many people were wearing green today (besides said employees.) And so what if they ate so much sugar that they ruined their lunch... there were NO tears at the grocery! :) I call that one successful Monday!
My verse for the day is Song of Songs... the entire book. Seriously, it's only like 7 chapters long and if you read it in The Message translation of the Bible, it's a beautiful love story that will make you just want to squeeze your hubby too tight!

Cute grocery store game! I'll have to remember that when Caroline is a bit older. We went to Target tonight and she freaked out when DH pushed the buggy. She's into the habit of only having mommy at the store! What have I created???
You are too funny!
The tent sale is in the Atlanta area. I don't suppose you will be coming down for it? :) It's at an upscale boutique but will also be having a consignment shop selling some of their stuff as well. ???
My mom is Preston's sister. So, we are on opposite sides of the family. It's really neat to think that we share family and haven't seen each other in years! We were in Nashville this week looking at potential houses. Tim's company may be transferring him there, but I didn't post about it because my sister doesn't know anything about it. We looked at houses in Hendersonville.
We definitely are a LONG way from home!!!
