my week so far...

has been busy, busy, and a little more busy.....  

Shaking it up no less (it is the "theme" of our much loved Vacation Bible school this week)

Shake it Up Cafe

We all four run around the house like crazy people in hopes to get there by 9:00 (i am a little worried about getting to big school this fall by 7:30, oh my!)

 and a dear friend brought this wonderful article to my attention AND THEN turned the page down and brought it to me, i mean, service.  thanks i finally four days later had a minute to read it!

 do you get this magazine???

 i couldn't think of a more perfect quote myself.

 my dear and MISSED mom had some of the best girl friends i know.....  And this month in B Metro an article describes some of her bestest that she loved like no other.....  

Mom's "sewing group".... Or STICTH AND BITCH to be later known although, i don't recall a single event in which they sewed, mom claimed they smocked when we were young????  who knows.  All i know is these are some tremendous families i sure do miss hearing about day in and day out.... And i know Mom was NOT missing her girls nights,...... EVER!!!!!   

these below are some dear friends to say the least and i know they miss my mom as much as i do.

and i quote

"So...resorting to what we know best, we seek out a few like-minded friends, gathering together for a little self nurturing, and maybe even for a bit of note swapping on whose spouse most deserves the award for "cro-Magnon of the week"

"it's really easy just to BE, " "you don't have to explain yourself because everybody already knows"

And while "summering" away for a couple weeks only to leave again this weekend i will admit, i miss my own friends like CRAZY!!!!  Therefore, we have booked plans to see them almost every night this week, i will no doubt need some R & R by next week. wink wink.  

 Thanks to our big daddy,,, while we may not paint the town RED so to speak, we will be sharing time tonight with friends we love the most. look out.
