Son's marching band performance was awesome Friday night, and was even better at the competition Saturday afternoon. It brought tears to my eyes. We had to leave before awards due to our hectic schedule for the day. What a bummer because they took first place in their division. Woot! Moving onto another competition next weekend.
Dropped off Daughter at her friends house so they could get all dolled up for Homecoming dance at friend's school. She must be studying in the school of Marcy bathroom shots, because this is the photo she sent to me when they were all ready to go. She's the one in the middle.
Son had rushed from Band competition back to school to prepare for the first show of the comedy troupe and that is where we went next. Parts of the show were quite funny, some parts I didn't "get" (guess it's a sign of my age). One of the sketches that they performed was written by him. He seemed to really enjoy it and was comforable on stage. Next performance is in January.
Our church is leaving the rented space and going portable for the foreseeable future. We'll be meeting in an elementary school. This means unloading before the service and reloading after the service into a large trailer. It's going to be "interesting." We had a practice portable service today and it seemed to go pretty well.
Admittedly, taking a nap wasn't on my schedule, but I was exhausted this afternoon and did just that. It was probably a good thing, because things are slowing down for me anytime soon...
Sounds like a crazy busy weekend, but fun for all. I can't even imagine life with teens as I'm still dealing with the elementary and preschool (and I'm not much younger than you, just got a slow start LOL).

ReplyDeleteSounds like a busy weekend
ReplyDeleteSuch is life with teenagers!
ReplyDeleteAnd dermatologists..I guess...
Nanna naps = good :)
ReplyDeleteWhat a lovely smile your daughter has :)
What a great weekend! Glad your son enjoyed himself and your daughter is gorgeous.
ReplyDeleteToo much fun! Sounds like your kids are very involved "in life" how great is that!
ReplyDeleteGlad you took some time for a well deserved nap!
You are always busy - fer sure - but your son's first place and that Marcy-like pic of your daughter smiling and having a blast with her friends are sweet rewards. Now get some rest.
ReplyDeleteWow Lisa! Busy busy you are ;-)
ReplyDeleteYour daughter better not come near my blog! HAHAAH I don't want my trash rubbing off on the good kids ;-) She looks beautiful! Love the dress! Great color. Hope she had a great night.
Marcy's influence reminds me of a bad case of Kudzu :-)
ReplyDeleteSounds like you've been busy! You're daughter look so pretty in her dress. I hope she had fun at the dance!
ReplyDeleteI'm glad the skin is getting better!
ReplyDeleteAnd cute "Marcy" shot!
"She must be studying in the school of Marcy bathroom shots"
ReplyDelete------
Just make sure that is the only thing she picks up from Marcy. ;-)
A busy weekend for sure. You deserved a nap.
The Marcy bathroom shot made me laugh. Daugher looks great for the dance!
ReplyDeleteSounds like the kiddos are doing very well :-)
Sounds like you had one heck of a busy weekend! Good thing you got your run in on Saturday!
ReplyDeleteOh, I forgot, good thing you are narrowing down the skin irritants. That can be frustrating! My hands itch sometimes to distraction but there is no rash or anything, so its hard to know what causes it.
ReplyDeleteSooo busy!!! I love that your daughter has a modest dress! ;>) She is a cutie! We went to a portable church for about two years. It can be exhausting...that is for sure. We rotated set up and tear down by SS Class so it wasn't too bad. I hope it works out for you!
ReplyDeleteWow, what a busy weekend. You rock. And I bet the nap was well deserved.
ReplyDeleteP.S. Your daughter looks beautiful.
Sounds like it was a busy weekend! I have some skin thing that comes and goes adn I've never been able to pinpoint the culprit -- sounds like you're WAY more organized about it!
ReplyDeleteCute pic! Didn't know you were having skin problems -- glad that is getting resolved. My skin is really dry lately, driving me nuts.
ReplyDeleteGlad you took a NAP too. Sometimes you just need to . . . . :-)
what a busy weekend! I am sure after the exhaustion wore off -you realized how great it was. Girls looked beautiful.
ReplyDeleteBusy Busy so the nap was necessary...I love the pics from the 9 mile run what a relazing place to run peacefully.
ReplyDeleteThe bathroom shot for your daughter is too cute! School of Marcy HAHAHA!
