If you confess with your mouth that Jesus is Lord and believe in your heart that God raised him from the dead, you will be saved. Romans 10:9
For God so loved the world that He gave His only begotten Son, that whoever believes in Him should not perish but have everlasting life. John 3:16

A Sentence A Day - March 2021


 My March:

1 - Monday.  Hubby got his first Covid Vaccination today and then came home and grilled us burgers for dinner and I cleaned up and worked on knitting a scarf that so far I love.

2 - Tuesday.  Hubby is feeling good with only a sore arm from his shot and I created a hat and scarf, but not a matched set.  lol





3 - Wednesday.  After work we came home for supper and then went to the church for hubby to do his online live Bible Study on the book of Luke.

4 - Thursday.  Finally got the van back after work and then met my sister to go pick up our other sister and take her to the store.

5 - Friday.  Ordered a sparkly face mask to wear for the wedding, if needed.


6 - Saturday.  Hubby and I went out for a good steak and salad to finally celebrate our 32nd anniversary which was last month during all the snow issues.

7 - Sunday.  Church both morning and evening and a wonderful nap in the afternoon.

8 - Monday.  Back to work and hubby had put a roast in the crockpot before leaving for work which made for a really good dinner and also a couple lunches later in the week.

9 - Tuesday.  After work I ran into Aldi's and then we had chicken sandwiches for dinner and I made another hat while watching some TV.

10 - Wednesday.  Sloppy Joes for dinner after work and then hubby did online live Bible Study and then some laundry and TV and knitting for the evening.

11 - Thursday.  Picked up our wedding clothes at the seamstress after work.  We decided to have her shorten the sleeves on hubby's jacket and then we'll pick that up later.

12 - Friday.  After work went to dinner with hubby's mom and had Italian.

13-19 - I kinda dropped the ball for this week.  Just getting ready to travel to Florida for the wedding and I didn't record anything.  I know I worked all week and got things ready and packed, etc.

20 - Saturday.  We ran errands and finished packing and took Lucy to the kennel, sure do hate saying goodbye to her for 10 days.

21 - Sunday.  Packed the van and went to church and immediately after church we hit the road to Florida and stopped for the night just north of Atlanta.

22 - Monday.  We drove the rest of the way and that evening Kelli and Ralph got some McDonald's and brought it to our room so we could sit and visit for a short time.  Good thing we did, because we really didn't see them much again until Thursday night before the wedding.

This was the Florida Welcome Center, where we almost always stop and get a free glass of orange juice.

23 - Tuesday.  A relaxing day for hubby and me and for lunch we went to Ford's Garage which was delicious.

This was my meal.  Low Carb-uretor - Yummy!!

Hubbys - I don't know what it was called, but he liked it!


24 - Wednesday.  We picked up Colton so his mama could spend the day with her sister and the bridesmaids for the Bachelorette Party.

Park Play

I think he liked it

Coloring while waiting for lunch at Olive Garden

I think we wore him out.

Watching Disney cartoons

He loved the little cave we made him under the desk.

25 - Thursday.  Took Colton out for breakfast and then back to his mommy and then that evening we met up with everyone at a little sports bar and had a semi-rehearsal dinner which was very relaxed and fun being with everyone.

This was the first time we've all been together in probably at least 2 years.

26 - Friday.  Wedding Day!!

Right before I walked her down the aisle.

I love this photo!

Hubby relaxing after the ceremony

Love this picture of him.

It was in the 90's and this was getting later and I'm rather wilted, but no way I'd say no to a picture with my girls on this day.


27 - Saturday.  We met my cousin and her husband for lunch and had such a great time talking and catching up as it had been many years since we had seen them.

28 - Sunday.  Hubby and I decided to leave a day early...it had been a great week and we were tired and ready to be home.

29 - Monday.  We love being in a car together and this was a good day and we made it home around 4:00 or so.

30 - Tuesday.  Unpacking and relaxing

31 - Wednesday.  Hubby and I got our 2nd Covid shot.

So there's my month.  How was your March 2021?

Friday Photos


 Here are a few candid shots from our trip and the wedding.  I can't wait to see the professional photos.
 Kelli was sending us selfies from their honeymoon, so we took one in the van and sent to her. 

Colton with his aunt and uncle's dog, Arya.  He loves her so much!

I love this picture.

These are poses from the photographer and someone else snapped a picture too.

Kelli made this board.  These are photos of friends and family weddings.

Getting ready to walk her down the aisle.  

This was Colton's "girlfriend" and she was so kind to him.




Mama with both her girls.  

The groom and his groomsmen

Bridesmaids

I think he believed this wedding was all about him.  He was so happy and proud.

Gathering the night before the wedding.

Breakfast with Colton.  We got to keep him all day Wednesday and then into Thursday and I think he had a really good time and I know we did.

We made him a little bed under the desk in our room (his own little cave) and he loved it.

Relaxing before bed.

Playing and watching cartoons
Playing a a really nice park we found in the area
He made some friends and had a blast and was definitely worn out afterward.




Lunch with Gigi and Papaw

I hate to see him have to wear a mask, but it sure does make his beautiful blue eyes pop!!

I'm sure there will be many more photos in the future of the wedding.  I just really want to document these memories.

Hope you have a great weekend!

Wednesday Hodgepodge

From this Side of the Pond
Click here to link up with the Hodgepodge.

1. The Hodgepodge lands on the last day of March...in ten words or lest bid the month adieu.  March has been a wonderful month with a beautiful wedding.



2. March 31st is National Tater Day...your favorite way to have a potato? Mashed Potatoes.  Given a choice would you opt for sweet, white, or red? Depends on what I'm eating them with.  I like red potatoes cooked in my green beans and probably mostly white potatoes otherwise, although I do like a good sweet potato too.  How often are potatoes on your menu in one form or another? Probably more often than they should be, which is why I don't eat that much bread anymore.  lol  Ever been to Idaho? No  If not, is that a state you'd like to visit someday? I certainly wouldn't refuse a trip there.

3. Last time someone or something 'rained on your parade'? Explain. I don't think I have anything I'd like to share on this question.  It's better for me not to dwell on that kind of stuff.  lol

4. Put all your eggs in one basket, get cracking, nest egg, bad egg, good egg, egg on, have egg on your face, or walk on eggshells...choose a phrase from the list that applies to something in your life currently and tell us how or why.  Get cracking because there are a lot of things I'd like to accomplish in organizing our home and myself before I retire.

5. If I visited your home would I find a lot of baskets there? Something you like to keep in a basket? Yes, actually, there are quite a few and they hold all kinds of things.  Probably a favorite thing is yarn.

6. Insert your own random thought here.  We had such a wonderful trip last week and I plan to share some pictures.  Of course, right now we don't have the photographer's photos, but I have a few random photos that I've "stolen" off FB from people that were there (like for example the one above).

Thankful Thursday

 

Click above to link up

We had some really beautiful morning skies this past week.  God just paints such a beautiful sky and I love it when he uses pink and purple especially.




I'm so thankful to be going soon to see these 2 married.  These photos are from their engagement pictures.  I'm thankful for a good photographer, who will also be doing their wedding photos.




So what are you thankful for this week?
