- I awoke to the fact that Julie will arrive in 35 days...and then I wondered if she'll need knee pads for volleyball camp when she comes, because I'd hate for her to go and not have the appropriate attire on her third day in America. What kind of Pseudo mom am I if I don't even know what she is supposed to wear!?!?
- After dragging myself out of bed, I was greeted by Jake who had picked out his own clothes and dressed himself.
Nice choice with the dark socks and sandals little buddy...elderly men all over would be so proud of you...although I'm not sure they'd choose to wear their shoes on the wrong feet. The shirt on backwards...that's just a bonus.
- I went out to water my plants...still in my pajamas. Classy.
- I found this in my fern:
- I ran over to my neighbors house to take the cookies out of the oven for her (because we live in tiny town and we do that sort of thing...it's the best place on earth.) I still had my pajama pants on....and I was out of breath when I got back. What? How, you ask? Aren't I training for a 1/2 Mary? Why yes, technically I am. Except this week I have not ran once. Not once. I am 14 miles behind for the week...and scheduled to run 9 tomorrow....which is my 11 year wedding anniversary. Did you catch all that?
- I learned something about myself this week. This week has been full of ups and downs. Big ones. For some people, running is an escape. It is not that for me...I so wish it was. Physically, running is a great stress reliever for me...mentally though, it's just one more thing to do...one more thing required of me. This week, I just wasn't up to it. I needed a break. I fell off the running wagon. Monday though...I'll get back on...and pray that my body decides not to punish me too badly for the week long break.
- Tonight, my mom is taking the boys overnight so that Ben and I can have a date and a quiet house. Eleven years...we were babies when we got married. 20 and 23...but we were ready, as crazy as that sounds. And it has been an amazingly wonderful 11 years...which sounds even crazier ;)
- God gets the glory for it. All of it. Happy Weekend!

ReplyDeleteDaniel and I did Mexican on our date last week with boys gone... it was disappointing and really.... you'd think I'd know better than to let him eat beans on a date night... I am just sayin!!!! really! dumb. ha ha!
happy anniversary! Thats awesome. My husband and I got married last year--I was 20 and he was 24. Wondering how long did you guys wait to have kids? And was your husband in seminary? Because mine is...Thanks!
ReplyDeleteHannah: We planned on waiting to have kids till Ben was done with Seminary...but instead had 2 during...surprise!
ReplyDeleteI was 23 when Noah was born and 24 when Eli was born.
Happy Anniversary pajama pants lady.
ReplyDeleteHappy Anniversary!!
ReplyDeleteRunning over to the neighbors house to take her cookies out of the oven in your PJs. Love it. Sounds very Stars Hollow, no? :)
Happy Anniversary Ben & Sarah! you were beautiful Sarah on your wedding day and you continue to be. The boys just went to bed we had a fun night!!! Love,mom
ReplyDeleteYou are not going to want to run in the morning (wink).
ReplyDeleteHappy Anniversary!
Happy Anniversary!!! Hope you have a wonderful time with your hubby tonight!
ReplyDeleteHappy Anniversary, My hubby and I are celebrating our 13th this August and was 19 when I got married, hubby was 25 and we've survived. When your ready your ready!
ReplyDeleteHappy Anniversary!!
ReplyDeleteBTW, Julie will need knee pads if she does not have any! And a pair of spandex too. Sounds like you will need to take her shopping right away - BUMMER!
Our exchange student (Edris from Spain) arrives on August 10th and we can wait!!
Happy 11th! Love the picture of your little man in his own outfit. And I also love the fact that you have a sense of humor about it. A break this week was probably a great idea--extreme heat and humitity can't be good for you. And now you'll be ready to roll again.
ReplyDeleteHappy Anniversary Sarah:) I hope you have a wonderful date tonight!
ReplyDeleteHappy Anniversary, Sarah! Love hearing you say that the 11 years have been amazingly wonderful.
ReplyDeleteHappy Anniversary! I hope the night was GOOD.
ReplyDeleteI love that you run around in your jammies. :)
Happy anniversary to the two of you!! Hoping that you guys had an amazing night!

ReplyDeleteHappy 11th anniversary:)
Yeeey :D
Happy Anniversary!

I don't know if anyone else said this or not, I'd love to see that wedding dress you are talking about. =) I am sure it isn't as bad as you think.
