Coming up quickly...

...this weekend is our annual trip to St. George Island, FL with Levi's family.  I'm thrilled to be having our first family vacation!  Next week is also Oliver's first birthday (I can't believe it!), and we'll be celebrating at the beach, but leaving the day before his actual birthday to come home (four days out of the normal eight isn't too bad, right?), so we'll have a rather low key actual birthday at home with just the three of us, but then the Sunday after his birthday, we're having a blowout here at our house!  Whew.  I'm tired just thinking about it.

Just wanted to check in before all of the craziness.  Hope you're all doing well!  BTW, my blog changes are coming soon, just have to hammer out some code issues!  Big loves.

Mother's Day!

Oliver and Levi did a great job for my first Mother's Day!  Check it:

Mommy Charm

Cable Charm Bracelet

We had a pretty laid back day.  We went to church, out for lunch, and then I spent some time with a couple of friends at Starbucks.  Stopped by mom and dad's for awhile even though mom is out of town, but had a little visit with dad and my sister and her family.  Made breakfast casserole for supper (yum!), and spent a nice evening with Levi.

We ended up watching a documentary called The Case For Faith based on the book of the same title by Lee Strobel.  It was really interesting, and Levi and I are both interested in Christian apologetics, and this documentary sparked  even more interest for me.  In fact, I just ordered the book (and The Case for Christ and The Case for a Creator) from Amazon today.  I also plan on re-watching the documentary, and if you want to watch it, too, it's available on Netflix Instant Q.  =)

I couldn't have asked for a better first Mother's Day.  I haven't got the charm put on the bracelet yet, but I've been wearing it on a necklace since I got it.  =)  So pretty!!

Hope your Mother's Day was great, too!

Also, I have a big blog remodel coming up soon!  Stay tuned!
