sunday favorites

sunday shoes

i’d like to publicly thank my 10 dollar ross clearance footwear today: for making me feel somewhat like a girl despite my unfortunate barely-second-trimester frumpiness. they are very squeaky/sound like they need a healthy dose of some wd-40, but today these pointy flats tried to make me happy & i greatly appreciated them for it.

sunday entertainment

this morn was our primary program. the kiddos rocked it & sang their adorable little hearts out. note to self: sunbeams and microphones are ALWAYS an excellent idea. [does my heart good.] all of it just made me weep a small handful of grateful tears that i get to chill with those spiritual giants every week for a full 2 hours!

sunday naps

oh sweet bed, and dear child who still takes blessed 3 hour naps! i thought i’d have severe issues with 8 o’clock church because i’m very anti-alarm-clock…but crack-of-dawn churchy really is heaven in disguise! just get up, learn, {barf 3 times if it’s september 14th} sing, worship, and then sleep all stinkin’ afternoon. bliss.

sunday dinner

oftentimes sunday din-din is the only time my patient fam gets a real homecooked/eatible meal. [bless their hearts.] and since deb & clodhopper are the best cooks around…our tummies are n’er disappointed. i’m already dreaming about what we are having tonight. what’s going to happen if/when we maybe/someday move away?

sunday left-overs

this is referring to the applebees fettuccini alfredo that was re-heated for lunch today, ala mark dixon’s wallet last night. a special thanks to my cute parents who keep me entertained & well-fed on the weekends i am a single mom. i love you.

sunday fam

sunday equals chillin’ with our fabulous kinfolk. celebrating birthdays. [devy’s tonight!] visiting everyone’s houses. playing in the dixon playroom. dancing with grandma dunn. raiding grandpa’s candy dish! and being grateful we have so many fun peeps close by!

sunday milestones

every sunday that myron is away, there is always a celebratory phone conversation that marks his half-way point to coming home to us! this is a very exciting call and often involves a loud scream or happy yell of some sort! it’s always a good feeling to be on the down-hill slope of the trip.

sunday simplicity

anyday that work is optional is a great day for me! i love having a full 24 to collect my thoughts, ignore my papercutter sans guilt, thank the Lord, renew my baptismal covenants, find some sanity, learn about Jesus, for-sure shave my legs, perhaps paint my toenails, sing hymns, count my blessings, watch sports with myron {woops!} and make some time to just be still.

i love the sabbath!

{hope you had a happy one!}
