Sunday Scrapbook: Moments from the Week

 

                Today is Palm Sunday and so begins a deeply meaningful week for my heart. Though it promises to be busy, I’m looking forward to it – and looking forward to how God meets me in tender ways as I remember what He did for me. As we start this week, I want to show you some memories from the last week that stood out to me!

                Last Sunday we stopped at Walmart on the way home from church, and we learned what happens when Ryan runs in for one thing…hungry! He comes out with a pie and rotisserie chicken. Ha! Lexi was MOST interested in helping him carve the chicken and seemed surprised that he didn’t actually need her help. 😉

                Monday night brought about such a pretty sunset. It’s true that there aren’t bad views on the lake. We love the view in every season and weather. But something about spring colors in a sunset is just extra hope-filled.

                Lexi’s been so cuddly lately. She just moves from one of us to the other, and we love it. I grabbed this picture of her napping with Ryan. (She actually dreamed so hard, she was talking in her sleep and woke him up!)

                I arrived at the coffee shop early for a meeting, so I spent a little time in Bible study, and that was sweet. (Bonus: it was spring break week, so the coffee shop was extra quiet. Not great for the coffee shop, but beautiful for studying!)

                Thursday was gorgeous…until it wasn’t. We went for a walk after work, Ryan grilled our dinner…and then we hunkered down to wait out the storms. Lexi was NOT a fan. I was super grateful the large hail missed our place!

                It’s been a while since I did a hospital visit for work, but Friday was just such a day. I was thankful for a non-stormy day to drive – and for coffee for the drive home. I cranked up the music and had a praise party in the car while I drove!

                Last night we participated in a Seder meal, and it was meaningful. It’s (I think) the third time we’ve done this with our small group, but every time something sticks out to me that I hadn’t remembered or recognized from before, and I love that. This was no exception!
