Sunday Scrapbook: Moments from the Week

 

I feel like most of our weeks this year could be summed up with “I did not have that on my bingo card!” And this week was no exception. Lots of plot twists, but also lots of good moments.

                It all started out so calm and predictable…with a lovely Sunday. Lunch on the patio. Naps. Meals in the slow cooker. Stunning sunset. We shouldn’t have gotten comfortable – ha!

                Sometimes days are so good, it’s hard to choose the favorite moment from the day! Monday was one of those days. I completed ONE YEAR of reading through the Bible with my friend, Jenn, and we had the privilege of welcoming these three ladies over for a sunset cruise! They were so excited to join us, and we were all glad the weather held!

                We hosted Swiss Village for boat rides on Tuesday, and while Ryan drove the pontoon, Lexi and I stayed back on the patio working! It was a hot one that day, but it was still good to be outside!

                Wednesday was full of meetings and work, and I had a great time with my Growth Group that night as we went over some of the early chapters in Acts. So much good stuff in there.

                And then the plot twists began! Thursday started out feeling like a normal day but quickly took a turn with flooding! For the first time in our lives, we were laying sandbags outside to try to protect our house if the lake overflowed!

                The water did begin to recede on Friday, for which we were grateful. Less fun? FINDING A MASSIVE SNAKE OUTSIDE that afternoon. I will spare you the picture, because it is not welcome on this page. But ugh. It was so gross.

                So apparently I sustained an injury from hefting sandbags, so yesterday was all about Advil, heat on my back and neck, and Ryan trying to work out the knots. Sigh. I’m a mess, friends. A MESS.
