Ready for a new week...

Well, this was a weekend that was very refreshing and wonderful! I couldn't have planned a better party for Cassie if I tried. It was very laidback and everyone seemed to have a wonderful time!

I think this has to do with the number of people we invited this time. We learned our lesson from Olie's 1st birthday party a few years ago. We had about 30 people show up, and after about an hour, Olie had HAD IT! He started screaming uncontrollably and we had to go and calm him down while the party guests looked on. This time we had about 9 adults and 6 kids (including Cass and Olie). It was the perfect number of people to have over.

Everyone was able to kick their shoes off if they wanted and sit outside on the porch or hangout in the living room, or hover near the food and just chill out. We all needed this time together, and I'm very thankful that the Lord blessed us with it.

And now, it's time to get ready for another week. I'll make out my schedule (I literally have to write down what I need to do from moment to moment so that I'll stay on track; ADD anyone?), feed the kids, bathe them and put them to bed. Then I'll stay up and work for a couple of hours and go to bed myself. I hope this next week is even better than last week.

God Bless you with a safe, happy, and prosperous upcoming week!

P.S. My hubby will be back home from his law program in Athens for good on Tuesday!! I'm counting down the hours! :-)
