Trying to Plan a Menu

Well, I'm trying to plan a menu for next week. We have ALL been sick this week. It started with Abby on Monday, has worked it's way through everyone of us up to Alex (the last one of us) and he got sick today. I'm not sure if this is just a mean virus or the flu or what.  All I know is that it is really hard to plan a menu when no one wants to eat anything and just the thought of food is grossing us all out. Can you plan a menu on chicken noodle soup, saltine crackers and Gatoraide? I may just pull out an old menu and pray that we all feel better soon.

Gracie's Baptism

After several months of talking with her Dad and I, Gracie was baptized last Sunday morning. It is so sweet to see the faith of a little one. She truly loves Jesus and wants to please him with all her heart. To top it all off, her Daddy had the privilege of baptizing her.





The Fellows

All four of my "big guys" have joined Boy Scouts this year.  They are so excited about it. They have been working hard on memorizing everything for their first badges. I really think they are more excited about the campouts and spending more time with their Dad than anything else...and they are all so handsome!

My First Walgreens Run

First thing I learned today... Don't take kids with you when you are trying to "do coupons!" I got so confused. I'm still not sure if I really saved that much money. I won't even go into the details, but I checked out 4 times and had to do 2 returns, all of no fault of the Walgreens staff. I used the wrong coupons for the wrong items, purchased the wrong items for the Register Rewards, etc. I guess I'll try this one more time, since I do have $24 in Register Rewards that have to be spent. I'm still certain that I got some good deals, but I'm gonna do better next time!
