Our Weekend

This weekend was a fun weekend! It was a restful weekend of cleaning and house work, but fun because we got to be together! Saturday was beautiful and in the 70′s with the flowers starting to bloom and Sunday brought snow. Not what I was expecting, but it was our winter and now were ready for Spring! JJ had a an early morning on Friday so the weekend consisted of a few afternoon “Charlie” naps (see the pictures :) ).  Thankful for quiet weekends at home every so often!

Valentine’s Day

It’s Valentine’s Day…Ever Since JJ and I started dating we’ve never really celebrated Valentine’s Day. I’ve always felt you shouldn’t just show love on a Hallmark Holiday, but everyday your with the one you love. JJ and I have always just had a dinner in with Chocolate covered strawberries. It used to always be Harris Teeter Sushi and homemade Chocolate Covered Strawberries, but JJ has decided he no longer likes sushi, so now it’s something yummy we cook and homemade chocolate covered strawberries. This year it was grilled Salmon (for me) and steak (for JJ), spinach parmesan risotto, and roasted asparagus. We also added chocolate covered cinnamon almonds to our Chocolate Covered Strawberries….yummy! It was a quiet and great Valentine’s Day, I will leave you with something the Lord brought to my attention this morning and some pictures from our evening!

“Though the mountains move and the hills shake My love will not be removed from you.” - Isaiah 54:10

The word of God uses the phrase “unfailing love” 32 times, and not one is attributed to humans. Every single use of the phrase refers to God and God alone. Although the love of others can be rich and meaningful, only God’s love is unfailing. – Beth Moore

 

I’m blogging again…for real this time (Bachi’s reading!)

Bachi and Gaddi have an iPad now and so I told her I would start blogging again so she could read it on her iPad and see pictures. So where better to start then with our weekend in Orlando.

We had tickets to leave on the train at 9:27pm, at 9:10pm we find out the train is stuck behind a broken down freight train outside of Rocky Mount. After waiting about an hour or so, we decided to get a refund and start the 9hr drive to Orlando. So Friday night/Saturday morning was spent on Interstate 95 avoiding deer and swerving big rigs. We got to Orlando around 7:45am and Bachi had breakfast waiting for us!

We had a great weekend of spending time with Bachi and Gaddi, eating, laying by the pool, swimming, eating, golfing, playing cards, eating, taking pictures, relaxing, eating, and having a great weekend with Bachi and Gaddi. Below are some pictures from our weekend!
