The Post That Disappeared....

Ok, I know it's Friday afternoon and all and I've been teaching second graders all week and then coming home to an active family. But, I'm beginning to wonder if I'm losing it. One of my blog posts has disappeared. The one about our Mother's Day weekend camping adventure has vanished. I KNOW I posted and published it because my kids at school read it and commented on some of the pictures, namely the one of me reading my literacy circle novel. Is this some kind of Friday the 13th joke that blogger has instated?

Well, here's a mini-post to recap the fun we had. I don't have the time or energy for a do-over. I'm hanging out all night with a group of teenagers at church for goodness sake.

Here's where we went and it was perfect camping weather, unlike this weekend's forecast.

The ciacadas were sooooo loud that they sounded like an alarm. That caused me to do some research. I never in my life remember hearing them, or seeing them for that matter.

We had a great time and got home in time to make it to church.

I had a great Mother's Day.

So, to prove that I am NOT crazy, make a comment if you happened to read my post entitled Mother's Day Weekend. Come on, at least one other person must have seen it if my 2nd graders did. Did you listen to the children's choir singing a song to mothers? It's take way too long to download that again, but lovely it was.

And a Happy Friday the 13th to you, too!

Mother's Day Weekend

It's been a great Mother's Day weekend. It began Friday night when J.J. and I went on a double date with our friends, Noah and Beth. The youth group had a babysitting night to raise money to sponsor a Compassion International child. (No pics of our date night to Salisbury)

Saturday, it was off to Denton for soccer games. Here's a pic with my friend and fellow soccer mom, Stephanie.

Corinna dribbles down for a goal.

Saturday night we went to the drive-in with Steph and her kids and a couple of dogs, too. The place was packed out.

I'm very thankful to be a mother to such a delightful daughter

and to two

wonderful sons.

Although I miss my mom, who would've turned 64 on this Mother's Day, I am grateful for such a loving and supportive mother-in-law. Here's Ma Ma with her grandchildren.

J.J. cooked his mom and I a delicious steak lunch. I had a wonderful Mother's Day. I am richly blessed!
