Fun-Family Packed Weekend...


Busyness is the season of life we are in.
There is always somewhere to be. People to connect with. Children to ferry here or there.
But when it becomes wearisome to "do" all those things...a respite is in order.
Last weekend, centered completely around our family. Just the six of us.
And it was WONDERFUL!!!


Friday was a beautiful day to start our season passes at Carowinds.
Given as a birthday present to all our family from my parents...it was a perfect time to just get away and have some fun!


With so many different rides to go on...I am thankful that we have all season to try them out and choose favorites!!


Hailey is just a smidge to little for most of the rides there. But that's okay...
we spent our time cuddling and charming those around us!



Saturday marked the beginning of the end to Tyler's football season.


He had a GREAT team this year...maybe not winning that many games...but learning how to function as a team and growing together!


He was very blessed to have Coach Arrington this season.
Coach spent so much time developing each of their different abilities...but mostly, teaching them truth from God's Word!


This little one quickly learned that the stroller is NOT the place to be during games.
Finding her independence this season has been quite the adventure!


Sunday brought us an opportunity for us to dedicate our sweet Hailey girl.
Standing in front of our church family...thanking them for all of their love, encouragement, and support...and also affirming our desire to raise her in the fear and instruction of the Lord...was a special blessing!


Sunday being Mother's Day...I was treated like royalty! :-)
Jackson told me several HUNDRED times (Sunday and since then)
Happy Mother's Day, Mommy!
And of course, he told everyone that passed him in the hall at church or in the parking lot...man, woman, child, adult...there was much confusion for some people! :-)



Once we were home, the kids had me sit down while they read to me from Proverbs 31.
Then I was treated to a movie they had made (with the help of Daddy)...complete with picture slideshow and video clips. It was the sweetest...most memorable Mother's Day gift ever.
A precious way to wrap up our family filled weekend!
