Another Morning

Yup, I'm awake again all by myself. I'm sure God is trying to tell me something but I just haven't stopped long enough to listen. It's really a blessing to be on the first floor of our house... alone. It's quiet. I made some tea again and I've been puttsing on the computer.

I'm thankful for this kind of start to my day. It's been a tough week with the kids. I'm tired of being around them. I love them to death, don't misunderstand me. But, I feel a little whacked out right now and I feel like I just need some space. So, thank you Lord for two quiet mornings in a row!

We've got quite a nice busy weekend ahead of us. Last night we went over to some friends house for a cook out. Jamie had been working with them on their landscaping all day so he was a bit pooped out. But, it was nice to have some mommy discussions and eat food that I didn't have to prepare. It was good!

Tonight we're going to a Lansing Lugnuts game with another family. Jamie can get free tickets from Great Lakes Christian College where he teaches Hebrew (the language, not the book) every other semester or so. It's a nice little perk that they offer for staff and faculty. The Lugnuts are actually going into the playoffs so it should be a fun game. Also, they have fireworks afterwards. Yea, my favorite.

Sunday, after church, we're having a get together at my sister-in-laws house. It's a family renuin of sorts. Jamie has an aunt and uncle that live in Negaunee and a cousin and her family who live at the Sioux. Also, another cousin and his family who live... hm, not sure where nowadays. She's from Japan so they've moved back a forth a bit.

Anywho, our weekend will be filled with good friends and family, baseball, fireworks, swimming, and yummy food!
