What a weekend!

I think I should start calling Peyton "Calamity P", because she sure can dredge up some drama. She was a mess trying to get a tree Saturday. I kept telling her that we had to find our tree. So for an hour she cries crocodile tears because "our tree is lost and we will never FIND it!" Then we get home and get the tree in water and lit just in time for Bama's kickoff. She begs to decorate the tree immediately. My reply: "Peyton, we can't decorate the tree right now because Daddy will end up knocking the tree down!" I tell her that we will decorate it at HALF-TIME. She freezes, looks at me and begins to BAWL. When asked what's wrong with her: "I don't want to decorate just HALF of the tree...I want to decorate the whole thing. WAAAAAAAAAAH!"

Sheesh! She has such a tender heart these days. It seems like everything makes her cry. Nevertheless, we made it through the day unscathed. Will post pictures of the tree and Andrew's adventures and discoveries.

Sunday was busy but a blast. The M&Ms put together baskets for some women that we love that are going through difficult illnesses. It was a real blessing being around the group and getting to deliver the basket. I don't know how everyone else responded, but Lena loved her basket. She was so appreciative and couldn't wait to sit down with a box of tissues and read our prayers. Please continue to pray for this work and its success.

Crystal, Teale and Natalie...we missed you so much. Teale and Natalie, I hope you are feeling better. Crystal, I hope you had a great trip and got home safe and sound!
