This weekend..

I had an absolutely wonderful weekend!!!! Every once in a well, you will have those weekends where time just fly by, and you find yourself back at work on Monday going, what happened to my free time. Normally, that's how I find myself...

Well, this weekend, was absolutely off the chain!!

Friday, was Good Friday. In remembering the best sacrifice that could ever be given for man, that Jesus died for our sins, I went to noon service at our church. It was amazing to hear the story told with such power, and clarity.

That evening, several of my girlfriends had a girls night out. No boyfriends, finance's, or husbands... A couple months ago we started attending plays, and found it to be very entertaining. On Friday, we saw Tyler Perry's latest play, "What's done in the dark.." The play had a very touching and informative message about going to the doctor, and taking better care of ourselves. Following the play, a couple of us went out to dinner, to one of our favorite places, Chili!!!!!. Lord knows, it's in those moments of reflection that you remember how blessed you are to have such dear friends. Sometimes people claim that women can be catty, and mean..But my female friends, have been some of the most encouraging, and supportive people that I've ever met. It's true when people say, when you find good people hold on to them...and that's what I've done.

On Saturday, another one of my friends, Laura, was in town visiting. Even though the weather was ugly, John and I really wanted to hang out with her, and our other friend Donald. We found this interesting place in the mall, where you find a piece of pottery, and then you use your creative side to paint the object. It was SO fun, and funny... When we got there both John and Donald, were totally against this "girl" activity. But after some convincing, they decided to try. John picked a Hummer, I picked a dog!!! About two hours later, everyone else was finished painting but John!!! He was determined that the Hummer looked as real as possible, and refused to leave before his creative vision was complete...Again it took some convincing, but he soon let it go, so that we could leave!!!! I must admit it turned out great!!! But don't tell him, I said that!!

I hope to post pictures from Friday night, and Saturday!!!!!
