July 4th Weekend

Our holiday weekend felt like a little vacation. Here is a snapshot of what it looked like...
Friday Night:

• John and I had dinner with some friends and talked about some exciting opportunities for me in the near future


• Met up with friends (Steve and Kara) and enjoyed yummy ice cream


• Stayed up late catching up
  

Saturday:

• Slept in


• Made strawberry pancakes for breakfast - actually, John made them


• Did some more catching up - that is what happens when you live far away from friends


• Went to the park and played Crockett


• Went to a BBQ with family and friends
  

Sunday:

• Went to church - which I absolutely loved! I had not been to a Sunday service since May. John and I were teaching Sunday school in May, so we missed the services. Shortly after, John had surgery and we had to miss a couple more Sundays. Last week I was teaching Sunday school again. Needless to say, this past Sunday felt like a drop of fresh water in the middle of a desert. It was wonderful to listen to the word of God being taught.


• Had lunch with family


• Waited for the rain to go away so we could go to the park to watch fireworks


• Rain never went away


• Watching fireworks in the rain
  

Monday:

• Slept in


• Had yummy breakfast


• Went on a hike with my sister!
  
• Celebrated a friend's birthday :)
  

All in all, this was an awesome weekend full of fun!
