Weekend

We had such a fun and relaxing weekend. Lori and Karady stayed with us this weekend. It was a lot of fun. We had great food. Well, not on Saturday night. We had planned to do an Olive Garden meal. I found recipes on the internet and bought all the ingredients. We had bruschetta for an appetizer. Zuppa Tuscano, Five cheese ziti and creamy schrimp scampi with fettucini. We also had a crockpot chocolate cake for dessert. I absolutely love the five cheese ziti from the Olive Garden, so I was excited to make it. Well, the Olive Garden has nothing to worry about, I will not be making it again, it was awful! Everyone else loved it, but not me. Then my appetite was kind of spoiled so nothing seemed to taste good. We made an awesome hot layered cheese dip. I will definitly be making that again. It was so good. We did a lot of scrapbooking, I got 6 pages finished. We were up late every night. We had a lot of good laughs. It was a lot of fun. We are so glad that Lori and Karady could stay with us. Come and stay anytime!

Yesterday, Charlie and I planned to go to Bismarck shopping. When I was getting ready, I tried to kick my laundry out of the way to close the closet door. Well, I kicked the door instead.... OUCH!!!! Man did that hurt. My toe was swollen and very sore. Charlie and I did go to Bismarck, I hobbled my way around. I told Charlie several times..."Oh Charlie, my toe really hurts", he would say, " I am sorry mommy". How sweet! When I got home my toe was purple on each side. I thought for sure I broke it. My mom thought it was funny...no sympathy there. When I got up this morning, it felt much better, still sore and purple, but better. I don't think I broke it, but must have bruised it good.

Jack started wrestling after school yesterday, I will post some pictures of him at a match soon. We will be busy with that for the month of March. He has practice on Mondays and Tuesdays. Matches usually on Fridays, Saturdays or Tuesdays. He loves it and gets very excited. We are still learning about wrestling, but have found it to be interesting. He has his first match on Friday.

We also have a busy week at work, 3 funerals so far. Please keep our friend Janelle and her family in your prayers this week. Her uncle died on Friday. Please watch over them while they are traveling and keep them in you care during this sad time. Amen.

thanks for checking in with us again. we will chat again soon.
