this weekend

Well, another weekend is now over. How can two precious days be over with in the blink of an eye?

As I explained in one of my previous posts, I went out with the girls on Thursday night. Matthew absolutely hates when I go out with friends. He still worries about the next time I have a Ladies Retreat at church! Thursday afternoon, I walked into the room where Matthew was and saw him on my cell phone leaving a message. He hung up and told me that he found one of my friend's name on my cell phone phone book so her called her and told her that I would have to cancel going out! I called my friend back (who was out of town and therefore not guilty of depriving Matthew of his mama) and told her to please excuse the previous message!

Friday night, I get a call from my friend who said that she had gotten Matthew's messages. "Messages?" Apparently, Matthew got a hold of my cell phone again and left a message again saying that I would never ever ever ever go out with her again because I didn't like her! Click. Looks like I am going to have to start putting my cell phone away and have a talk with Matthew about how breaking up friendships isn't Christianlike!

Saturday was wonderful. We really had no plans for the first time in months so we just hung out. Bryon's best friend was in town helping him with computers for his office and stayed until Saturday afternoon. We took him out the the subdivision where our lot is to eat donuts and go on a walk.

After he left, we ran errands and went back out to Riverside to swim and eat pizza. It is so much fun watching the three of them in the pool! I actually took all three to the pool by myself on Friday night! I was a little scared, but it went well. I no longer have to worry about Matthew and Thomas is content swimming with his floaties on. Mary Beth loves splashing the water and watching her brothers.

We started VBS tonight. I am a guide who helps the children in each activity and takes them from the craft room to the games, snacks, and bible story. Thomas got to go for the first time this year! VBS week is always fun. Bryon loves the excuse to work late all week!
