Weekend at home

This weekend was very relaxing. We were actually home the whole weekend which was nice. Friday night we went to a cookout with our friends Jeff & Kari. It was a get-together for their bible study group and they were kind enough to invite Aaron and I. It was a lot of fun, we already knew some of the people but we also met some new ones. The group is made up of young married couples that meet twice a month. I know Jeff and Kari have enjoyed going and we are going to join them when they start up again in the fall. The highlight of the evening was when we played the newlywed game. Aaron and I (the newly-ist-wed) ended up winning but mainly because we got the bonus questions right!!
Saturday, a group of us headed out to Lake Granger to float and ride a Jet Ski. It was a VERY relaxing day! We took hotdogs to grill and then went to The Mercantile in Walburg to hang out after the lake.
Sunday we woke up late, barely made breakfast at The Monument and then did some work around the house. Aaron spent the day organizing the garage (I think our garage is the most organized on the street) and I helped him out. I love weekends when we get to stay home and hang out...even if we are organizing the garage.
This weekend Dad and Mom are hosting us and 10 of our friends in Azle. We are all very excited!! Check back for pictures of the upcoming weekend!

"Be Joyful ALWAYS, Pray continuously, give thanks in ALL circumstances"

I ran across this quote about 5 different times this week and I have really come to love it. I finally stopped to wonder if maybe it was a sign that I am not doing these things all the time. My new goal is to follow this daily. I think it is a great way to live and I thought I would share!

Have a wonderful weekend!

4th of July

We went to my parents house for 4th of July weekend and had so much fun! Saturday Greg, Lacey, Rory, Gma, Gpa, Aunt Terri, Uncle Steve and Britty all came over. It was good to see everyone. We spent the day in the pool and on the lake. Mom worked hard in the kitchen and we worked hard eating ALL day long! Greg, Lacey and Rory stayed Saturday night with us at Mom and Dad's house. It was so fun hanging out with them...especially Rory. I do believe we have the CUTEST and SWEETEST niece in the world. I LOVE spending time with her and I know Uncle Aaron does too. I posted some pictures (mainly of Rory) from the weekend and one adorable video of Rory and Papa J.
