Fun Weekend :)
On Sunday Caleb went with his Uncle Allen to the Renaissance Festival. It was pirate weekend and he got into the spirit! It was a big deal for me to let him go somewhere like this without me. I was so worried that he would get lost! In the end he had a great time and there were no big problems. He was so tired and dirty that he tried to climb into bed in his birthday suit after his shower. I should let him go out like this more often!
While Caleb was at the Festival, Daddy went to Dover to see the Nascar race with my Dad and brother. This left an entire day for Mommy and Blake to be together, it was wonderful. We went to church in the morning (he wore the adorable "I Drool" outfit above) and then spent the afternoon playing, snuggling, and napping.
Today we are off of school for Yom Kippur. Caleb and Blake are starting to "play" together. It's interesting to say the least! Caleb is still very territorial and gets upset when Blake touches his things. We have a lot to learn, but have made so much progress!Saturday, September 19, 2009

What a Blessed Weekend!
Me and Chris Sligh. I brought up seeing him on Idols Live, but later he talked about wanting to be know more for than being a "singing head" on Idol though, oops. He was very nice though and so funny! (Just like American Idol, but there I go again! LOL)
Me and Aaron Shust (Unfortunately we only got to hear him acoustically... I felt too guilty staying there until the end of the concert because I wanted to see Caleb before he went to bed. He was great acoustically and very nice though. I hope to see him in a full show one day. He is best know for the song "My Savior, My God.")

I also posted a video on youtube of Chris singing 2 songs:

On another happy note I think we might (fingers crossed that it will work out this time) have found a new church home at Community Christian Church. I like nondenominational churches, despite going to denominational churches (Catholic and Lutheran) as a child. It something about them that is more genuine and laid back in a good way. I thought I had found a great church about a year ago but things really fell apart. I am unfortunately hesitant to get excited after that experience. Their message this week was on Materialism. We are in over our heads big time now financially due to our huge weekly daycare payment and huge mortgage payment, so again I think God put today's message there for a reason.
Any way, I don't have much time for blogging any more but I like coming on here when I can! I hope everyone is having a great weekend! Go Ravens!
