Weekend at a Glance

Happy Monday Morning!

We had a nice weekend, however it certainly seems jam packed in retrospect. Saturday morning began early for us as Charles had to go to work while Clara Grace and I met a friend and her family at a school yard sale in the hopes of finding some office furniture for the church office that we are currently redecorating...for fun. Anyway, who knew a yard sale could be so much fun. Clara Grace has a blast playing with Sue's kids and the playground was nice. After we scored, we ran through McDonald's drive thru for a bit of breakfast and on to the church to dismantle the current desks and replace them with our finds. That took a little bit longer than I expected, but check out what the kids did to occupy their time while they waited. Not bad, eh?

Yesterday we had a great breakfast at the Cracker Barrel, then hit the mall and some shops. We stumbled upon a "Jedi Training Class" that was fairly cute. We watched for a few minutes before moving on. Oh, the Batmobile was off to the side. I'm not sure of the connection, but Charles enjoyed the sight.
Inspired by a friend, we have sworn off the practice of ordering pizza and have now moved on to the wonderful world of making our own at home! Here is Clara Grace posing in her apron before we began. Our hands were too messy for pictures and later too busy feeding our faces. So you'll just have to trust me, it was delicious. I was a bit rushed on time, but next week we will be creating our sauce from scratch. Yesterday Chuck added his own flare to some purchased at the store. I'm still a bit reluctant to do my own dough but maybe in a week or two. We cheated and used refrigerated dough from the grocery store. It was still yummy and we did it together!


After we finished eating our pizza, it was time to leave for Awana. It was a wild night, but enjoyable.
