Our Weekend

We had a pretty good weekend, and I took a couple of pictures I wanted to share.

On Friday, Daddy and Gracie broke into the pineapple we had gotten the day before at Costco. Garren loves fresh pineapple, and now Gracie is pretty crazy about it herself.

Garren had to work this Saturday, but he decided to take us with him. His assignment was to cover the "Route 11 Yard Crawl." This was the first I had heard of it, but apparently it is several years old. It's a yard sale that covers the entire Shenandoah County. I can't imagine why he thought Gracie and I would enjoy it!

I would like to say we came home with a car load of bargains, but that's not the case. For starters, these people wanted way too much for junk. Secondly, there wasn't much that we saw that we really wanted. We found a few things, and for $3.50 I got "Thing 2" (Dr. Seuss small plush) , a vintage Walt Disney World mug (plastic), fabric appliques, 3 kids books, a puzzle, Sara Lynn (Little People), miniature "Shovel" (Blue's Clues), and vintage kids games. So, we did pretty well.

Today we got all dressed up and headed to church to meet and hear the new minister. Gracie looked super adorable in her sailor dress. She was a good girl as usual during the service, and the new minster was very good. Oh, and we even signed up for a tea party that the church ladies are hosting next Sunday, and I need to find out more about the day-long Bible School on Saturday for Gracie. I think this will be a good chance for Gracie to meet other kids.

Hopefully this week will shape up to be a good one. Our best wishes for a great week to all of you too!

She didn't wear the hat to church, but she apparently needed to dress for lunch (you'll probably notice the ballet shoes are on her feet too--this is her idea of "formal")
