the last two weeks...

My little blog breather was needed and fruitful, but I of course missed y'all!
(thanks for being patient with me as I followed my heart on the need for a break)
LOTS to catch up on...


in the last two weeks:
*We've played hard outside, enjoying the beautiful weather here in OK.
*Abigail got to "mow" with Daddy.
*We've enjoyed our budding rose bushes, and have cut a few to enjoy inside.
*Bethany has become a little rolly polly, rolling all over the place.
*We've been to some fun festivals and events around town, like the "Touch a Truck",
the huge annual music festival, and the arts festival!
*Parker and I got a night out to celebrate Cinco de Mayo...but realty called, and we had to come home early to the babies, SO we made margaritas at home. :)
*We started the "Whole30" challenge, which is eating nothing but whole foods, and cutting out ALL processed food and refined sugar....HARD, but I lost 6.5 lbs in 7 days, and feel so much healthier already!! Amazing right?
(vulnerable post about that coming real soon)
*I found out I have a kidney stone, and am now waiting for it to pass. real fun.
*I ran a 5k on Saturday, and it gave me a huge, needed confidence boost!
*I've spent some great time with the Lord,...just some quality, focused, worshipful time in His presence, which is what I needed.

It's been a good two weeks. :)
NOW for the pictures.

but this week we will be linking up for Mother's Day letters!!}
