I find that i avoid writing these "catch up" emails almost as much as i avoid returning phone calls. Perhaps this will fade with maturity...?
So, as you know, emily and justin got married last saturday evening! it was a great wedding! There were, of course, your normal funny stories to tell. Some cannot be shared on this open an outlet, but suffice it to say- there were some notable characters present. It all made for a magical day and a GORGEOUS bride! i ended up pinch hitting and doing her makeup! she looked great- it helps that shes a stunner with no make up- i'm just saying. All in all- a great time to celebrate a wonderful couple, enjoy old friends, and just generally have a blast.
On tuesday i joined everyone in donning green for the celebration of St. Patrick! I also tried my best to drink some green beer as an act of solidarity. but alas... we ended up around a fire pit at the Greenhouse. A great time was had by all.
All this week, i am keeping watch of two doggies. One lab who is stubborn and one rescued terrier of some sort. They're nuts. but... its been kinda fun! Early this morning it started to storm and i had two large dogs came whimpering into my room. what sissies! gracie kept me awake because she was shaking so hard! some watch dogs! (it was kind of fun).
So- here i am - mid week. mid Holy Week! How is it possible that its already that time again!?! Time flies!
I'm really eager to let the magnitude of Christ as the Risen Lord penetrate my heart and mind in a new way this year. i think i am going to spend some time in the "Jesus StoryBook Bible". it is so lovely. i cannot recommend it highly enough!
PS. i forgot to mention! Coco and Jimmy got the ultrasound and saw "baby boy" sucking his thumb!! it is so strange to think that this tiny person is about to be here! I cried. its true.
