Well, I'm a little late on adding a Father's Day entry, but the motto around the Greenwood house is, "Better late than never!"
We
had a pretty relaxing Father's Day. We got up and went to church as a
family. Usually, Chris sings with the worship team, so he heads to
church before the rest of us do. It was nice to be able to ride
together as a family and say our prayer to encounter God during worship
together. After worship, we took Chris to one of his favorite
restaurants called "Foster's Grille." They have some AWESOME
burgers--even turkey for me--and grunge fries! We came home and all
took a nap--except for Chris. He was helping some of our friends move
into their new townhouse. He came home shortly after the kids got up
from their nap. We spent the afternoon outside in the back yard.
Josiah and Chris put together Josiah's playhouse from Granny and Papa
Gig, while Sophie and I swung and sat in the baby pool. We didn't do
anything fancy for dinner because we stayed pretty busy outside. Chris
did get two special meals on Monday. For lunch, I picked up some wild
salmon, corn on the cob and made some rice. Then for dinner, I made
his favorite chicken pot pie recipe and picked up some of his favorite
bread from Wegman's. I also made a strawberry pie for dessert. Let's
just say that boy ate well that day!!!
Monday was a nice family day since the rest of the week has been very
busy!! On Tuesday, Chris had to go to the court house for jury duty,
but he never got picked. That night we had one of the youth over for
dinner, then had a Wipeout Party (this is one of Chris' favorite TV
shows!) with 11 from the youth group. On Wednesday, I spent most of the
morning running errands for Josiah's birthday party. This morning, I
ran some more errands, had a lunch date with Chris, cleaned the house
before sending Chris off to youth group. I'm hoping to stay around the
house tomorrow morning and have Josiah help me make cupcakes for his
birthday party. The only outing we will have is to go to the church to
decorate for his party. Chris' mom comes in LATE on Friday night. We
have Josiah's party Saturday morning, then lunch with our Home
Fellowship Group, then we will have all the grandparents over for dinner
on Saturday night. Sunday is another busy day--Chris preaches and then
leaves for his mission trip. Chris' mom will be staying until
Wednesday morning to help out with the kids and then my mom and niece
will arrive on Thursday to stay the remainder of the time. Chris gets
back on Friday from his mission trip. On Sunday, Chris and I will go
away for the night for our 8th anniversary. I have NO IDEA where we are
going, but I am definitely looking forward to spending the evening with
my hubby! Well, I guess I will sign-off for now. I'm sure I'll be
writing another entry for Josiah's 2nd Birthday, but that will have to
be another day
