I  was able to sleep in today, til way past 11 a.m.  Dean got up and took the boys to the zoo all by himself.  I was very suprised in fact that he managed it for as long as he did, they came home for lunch and everyone but Caleb and I napped.   I spent most of my day reading the newest Harry Potter.  I finished it this evening, not too bad, I think I started and finished it in 3 days – not bad for a 700+ page book considering in those 3 days I had a birthday cake to make and a party to prep for!

we went to church this evening so all of our day is free tomorrow.  But Boaz threw up halfway through and when I went to get him Zeke saw me so I ended up taking them both with me and got Dean to take bo since he wanted daddy not me and I hung out w/ Zeke so it was a waste of going, for us at least. Caleb’s friends, the twins across the street, went with us and they really seemed to like it.  their mom said she’ll go w/ us next week, I might try to hold her to that!  except next week is our tech week so we’ll be there for every service and wouldnt be able to sit w/ her.   So I guess at least it was good for them.

My favorite part of the night(other then just finishing reading HP) was at church when a woman I see around a lot at church asked me if I was “amy mckenzie” I said yes, and thought maybe it was something about the kids, and well I guess it kind of was…she had found my blog and flickr pics and said she’s praying for me.   I love how going to a mega church can still feel so much like home!   I saw lots of friends tonight, which as I’ve said before always amazes me, how out of 4 different options of service times we always manage to see people we know out of the masses!   It was nice to meet you if you’re reading, and before I had to go get Bo and was sitting in the service I realized where else I remembered her from, she is another one of the clowns at church.  no I mean that in a good way, she’s really a clown!    🙂

I’m definitely getting more connected, and quickly now that I’m on the moms group leadership team.   I’m anxiously awaiting when the school season starts and so does our regular schedule for moms meetings, right now we’re just doing playdates for the summer.

So tomorrow we have tenative plans to have friends over, can you consider someone a friend who’ve you just met and just know via their blog, well when you’re desperate for friends like me, well I will call them friends!   but they have had a stomach bug this week and now that Bo’s thrown up twice today…I’m thinking we might have to postpone.  Bo has been sick for about a month now.  first w/ roseola, then the sinus infection, he just finished his antibiotics a day ago and now he’s throwing up.   Poor child, sad to say he and Zeke have my crappy immune system, or lack of immune system it seems.   I cant wait to see what the school season brings w/ it in terms of sicknesses once Caleb starts bringing home more germs !

    I’m glad that you are feeling more connected. Ed and I are starting to feel that way at Cornerstone, too. We feel it more with going to the iFit group now. Anyway, glad things are going well for you on that front. We’ll be keeping you all in our prayers, too. And I think you can call her a friend. 🙂
