On Friday night, Steve and I dropped Amaya at her friend Cooper's house and we went to a combined choir concert between Autumn Ridge Church and Rochester Covenant Church called, "Elijah." This was a special concert since both my dad and Steve's mom were participating. It's been a long time since either of us have been to a concert with a full orchestra and really enjoyed it. We were massively impressed with how much work everyone put into the concert!
We woke up early Saturday morning to go to our niece Lydia's soccer game. You would think that with the sun shining and the temperature being in the 50s that it would be great weather to watch a game. Unfortunately, it was REALLY windy, so it was a little chilly. The weather didn't stop Lydia from making an incredible assist to help her team score a goal. It's amazing how much progress she's made since last year and she's only in first grade!
After Lydia's game, we picked up Steve's mom to do our usual open houses and lunch. We also stopped by Sargeant's nursery to pick up a hanging plant for Steve's mom for Mother's Day and one for me.
We typically go to Saturday night church, but instead of going to church, we were needed to help out in Amaya's nursery. There is a core group of kids that Amaya has grown up with and since we haven't been in the nursery in awhile, it was fun to see how much the other kids have grown.
Today we spent most of the afternoon getting ready for my Mom's garage sale. She and my dad already had the garage cleaned out and tables set up, so all I needed to do was unload all our bins and organize. I LOVE ORGANIZING everything!! We have quite a bit to sell... and we're hoping to get rid of a lot! My mom's friends will unload things over the next few days and my sister comes on Wednesday morning to be a part of all this crazy madness! We're VERY EXCITED to see Carol and see how much Hope has changed.
And so begins another busy week...
