And you thought you were missing something......

So many of you have asked about my blogging absence....I was so touched by your "interest" in our lives. But, take it from me, after I get done with this post, full of the overly mediocre details of our weekend, you may once again wish for my absence.

Actually, I think it was a delightful, quite exciting weekend....which started with me watching 3 straight hours of Food Network on Saturday morning. Yes! You read right....3 HOURS! But you will be pleased to know that I now have a deep understanding of how to make fried green beans with a mean wasabi ranch sauce (thanks to Rachel Ray), a questionable ice box cake (compliments of 5 Ingredient Fix), and a decadent looking chocolate pound cake (love you, Paula Dean). Now, if only I cooked! OH WELL!!!!

I know you will find this hard to believe, but I finally managed to drag myself up off of he couch.....and really, I long to feel better from the nausea of pregnancy and the absurd tiredness, but I am certain that I will miss the "need" to lay around....my family will only buy that for so long....anyway, we were off to the ballpark for a double header...you read right...A DOUBLE HEADER....at 2:00 and 3:30. And, for those of you who were not in central Alabama this weekend, it was about 95 degrees with ZERO breeze. So, we were hot....to say the least. Even Logan noticed! :) But, I am happy to report that we won BOTH GAMES. I would like to say to you that it made the heat worth it....but I am not sure that would be true....although I would have probably labeled it unbearable had we not won!

Sunday was equally as hot which drove me into the houe and onto the couch by about 2:00 Sunday afternoon. And, who am I kidding, this is the first Sunday in about 6 months that I have actually done something between lunch and the couch. The heat...it inspired me!

But, the absolute, hands-down best part of the weekend was Sunday night. My brother was baptized. We have prayed for him for YEARS and YEARS and YEARS! To say we were excited that he made a profession of faith would be an understatement. It is such a huge thing to know that all your brothers and sisters will go with you when you go (although obviously not on May 21st at 6:00)...to the same place.....God is so good! So much better than we deserve....so much more than we can even fathom that we need.

Now it is Monday night...I have worked all day. I have cooked supper...yes, for real...with roast, mashed potatoes, lima beans and rolls. (See, I told you Food Network inspired me!) And, I am off to do something that rivals my weekend excitement so I have a fun filled post for tomorrow......
