Weekend update with Elizabeth

This weekend:

1. I had dinner with a great friend on Friday and then Jason and I had dinner with two different couples on Saturday and Sunday night. Just call us social butterflies! Ha!
2. We went to a one year old birthday party. I think she got more presents than I have in 3 Christmas' put together. Not that it's about the presents..I'm just saying..
3. I watched Texas Stadium implode on television. No offense- but I have no idea what the big deal was.
4. I worked on a photo book on Shutterfly. I am thisclose to finishing it and will blog about it when I receive it.

Happy Monday everybody!

Happy Easter - a day late

Living he loved me

Dying he saved me

Buried he carried my sins far away

Rising he justified freely forever

One day he's coming

O Glorious Day

I love Easter! I love celebrating everything that it represents. For its because of Jesus that I am no longer a slave to sin. I am free.

He himself bore our sins in his body on the tree, so that we might die to sins and live for righteousness; by his wounds you have been healed. 1 Peter 2:24

O praise His name!!

I hope that everyone had a blessed Easter!

What Happens....

..when I'm gone for the evening?? This.....

And this..

I think I may have lost the competition on who Lucye likes better. But our kids - oh, they will like me better.

You may have won the battle Jason but you haven't won the war =).

Weekend update with Elizabeth

1. We went and saw Alice in Wonderland at Studio Movie Grill on Friday night. I LOVED IT! Jason didn't =/.
2. I watched some babies at the church on Saturday morning. It was so nice to hold babies that didn't cry when they saw me. Much different from my work day.
3. We visited with Jason's family as they came through Dallas on their way to Riodoso. So jealous they get to ski.
4. We ate at Chicago Ricks Pizza. So good and so fattening but worth it.
5. We took Lucye to the vet this weekend for her yearly shots and my poor baby has a skin infection and has to take medicine for awhile =(.

6. I spent most of Sunday reading a book. It was good to be lazy.

7. It was baptism/celebration Sunday at church this weekend. I love to hear how Christ captured other people's hearts. It reminds me of my own love story with Christ. =)

The Stars

Jason and I went to a Dallas Stars game this weekend with some of our good friends. It was our first time to see the Stars play live (and to be perfectly honest - to see them ever) and I have to say that it was really fun. I think hockey is a game best watched in person than on TV, but that is my personal opinion. Anyways, the Stars came back from behind to tie at the end of the 3rd period and then made it through overtime and lost by one in the shoot out. Total bummer. We had so much fun hanging out and catching up with our good friends.

After they tied the game

First day of Spring?

Last day of winter (Friday) - 73 degrees

First day of spring (Saturday) - 39 degrees with snow flurries starting at night

What?! Texas weather is weird. Friday I was wearing shorts and a t-shirt and walking Lucye outside and on Saturday, I was wearing a sweater, scarf, and jacket. Although, I'm not complaining. I love cold weather. Little snow flurries started on Saturday night and by Sunday morning we had about 5 inches of snow on the ground. I enjoyed it while it lasted. I know it will be 90 degrees here before too long.

"Don't worry, I'm going to catch all the snowflakes. I love this stuff. They are so fun to chase"

"These things are cold. Maybe if I sneak up on them I can get them."

"Man, I missed a lot of them. Oh well. This 'stuff' is fun. Mom keeps saying something about 'snow', but whatever it is - it's awesome"

Merry Christmas! Oops - I mean - Happy Spring!

Weekend update with Elizabeth

This weekend:

• Jason and I ate at Blue Mesa Grill for dinner for the first time. It was yummy!
• I did four loads of laundry. Blah!
• I crossed off three movies on my list to see:

Up in the Air - Not impressed. Have no clue why people were nominated for this movie.

Star Trek - Good. I liked the plot of younger Captain Kirk

Coraline - NOT a kid's movie. Very creepy but pretty good.

• Shopped with a friend - bought a jean jacket!
• Saw my nephew for an hour - he's still cute.
• Snuggled with my dog
• Snuggled with Jason
• Researched for our trip to London 2012 - cried when I saw the price for plane tickets

I think it was very productive weekend.
