What a weekend! Some parts of it were very busy and some were very laid back, but all in all it was very nice!
Friday night we decided to go on a hot date to the grocery store ;)! I really like that we go as a family b/c I want to expose Vance to everything I can, but it is a little tough at his age. He is more interested in trying to walk around and touch everything on the shelves. Have any of you ever experienced this and what pointers can you share?! After we got home and put the groceries away, Vance helped Web do this...
He is such a big helper these days and I am LOVING it! Is it bad that I am hoping he takes after my cleanliness?
Saturday morning we had swim lessons and Vance did so good! He has finally mastered the skill of blowing bubbles in the water. We have been working on this for a few weeks, so this was a huge accomplishment. Saturday evening was eventful! First, Web, Vance, and I met Meag at a "Welcome Home BBQ" for a friend of ours that just adopted a baby from Russia. There were tons fo friends there celebrating the long awaited arrival of Alex!
The sign and baby Alex at the bbq ;)! He is so happy!!!
Vance sitting like a big boy with his bottled water and beach ball!
After we left the bbq, we decided to go to Uncle Dave Macon Days =)! It is a weekend long event during July that includes food, arts, crafts, clogging, competitions, etc. In other words...good ole country fun. It was pretty late so we decided to stroll Vance around to find some good music to listen to...
We pulled him up to this and he was mesmorized! These are my favorites! Random people will gather to pick and sing...LOVE IT!
Sunday morning was very special to me! The framers began framing on Saturday, so we decided to drive out on Sunday and see the progress that was made. We also decided to bless the house with a prayer and some holy water ;)! If you know Catholics, you know we have a blessing for EVERYTHING! We each took turns sprinkling holy water over different areas of the house while we said the blessing! This is by far my favorite...
How sweet is this?!
The rest of our Sunday was relaxing! Web played a little golf while Vance and I played together ;)! He is cutting three teeth right now...POOR THING!

I love your weekend! I had a good time Saturday and was so glad to get to spend some of it with you and Web! I can't wait to see the house all framed up... can you feel my excitement?!?!? Can't wait!!!!
What a wonderful weekend!! That is so exciting that the framing has started on your house! I can't wait to see more pictures!!
I love that picture of Vance sprinkling Holy Water!! I know you are so excited about your new house! I know God's blessings will be on the whole project.
When are you scheduled to be finished...if you told us, I can't remember?
Your weekend sounds fun, as usual! You are one girl who knows how to have a good time!
I was thinking about you the other day and remembering that you had asked us to pray for you as you considered teaching. Are you still thinking about that? Just wondering!
Wow! You had a lot of fun things going on this weekend. I'm so excited about your house! I love that picture of you and Vance with him sprinkling the Holy Water! So sweet! And, I think it's great you want Vance to be a "cleaner." Your future daughter-in-law will thank you! :)
Those are great pictures. I just love the one with Vance and you sprinkling the holy water. Never to early to train them right; cleaning, religion or anything! Sounds like you had a great weekend. Thanks for sharing.
How exciting your house is started!!!! I loved watching the progress when we built down in Ada. At times it goes by so slow and then other times it flies right by and you are moving in. Be sure and take pictures for all of us!! Based on the picture it looks like you have a nice piece of property. Is it out in the country? I couldn't remember.
Yay for the framing!! I love the picture of you and Vance blessing the house. It is going to be the perfect home for your sweet familia!
