Our Weekend and Scout Sunday


We had a fantastic weekend. Al's mom came to visit Friday night and watched the kids while we went to dinner. Megan was great for her. No crying for Mommy! Yeah! Al says Friday was the first time we had ever been out without Megan. Now I think it was the second time we have been out without her. The point is we are very grateful to have date night. It has been a while since we had one. We went to Ruby Tuesdays and then walked around Big Lots. When we were younger and cooler we went to the mall after dinner. Now it is Big Lots, I love the great deals. It was a fun night.

On Sunday Al took the boys to scout Sunday at the church where they participate in cub scouts. Both boys had the opportunity to be ushers and pass the collection plate. Ben had been sneezing all morning. Al was praying that he would not sneeze in the collection plate. His prayer was answered and the boys first ushering experience was a success.

  2. The new Big Lots is nice and they even have the furniture department. It is much cleaner than Lexington.

  3. Will and Ben,
    I'm so proud of you in your Scout uniforms. I don't recall your dad getting to take the offering and usher when he was a Scout.

    I think that it's great that you are going to help Jack clean his room. You are both good big brothers, but I think that you have a very special little brother and sister.
    Love,
    Mimi

  5. Evden,
    Thanks for the invite. Your kids are as cute as ever. I love the story about the juicebox. I needed a good laugh.
