I hope you had a wonderfully relaxing weekend! We were busy as usual catching up with family and friends. My husband sang all weekend at Yorba Linda Friends’ Prophecy Weekend (which was amazingly enlightening) so much of our time was spent at church. My friend and guest blogger Kristin hosted an A-Mazing Greek dinner extravaganza with food that was beyond words. Our little boy got his first hair cut and we found out that one of my really good friends is expecting her first baby! Oh…and did I mention that we’re buying a house? With that here is the best from around the web!
