Memorial Day Weekend

The kids and I were able to go to Beaumont to see Daddy! It was a short and busy weekend.

Due to the fact that Grannie and Papaw's house will also be under construction, starting this week, I had to pack everything that we still had at their house in two of the rooms. ~Oh, when will this end! Right now, we have stuff everywhere. I just keep moving it from house to house.

Sunday morning, we went to church. It was so good to see everybody. After church, we went to eat lunch and then it was time to go back to work. Elizabeth & Matt came over and took Natalia, Carson & Luke out for ice-cream. Wow, they are brave! After ice cream, Matt helped Dave and Elizabeth helped me pack. We are so greatful for all their help. Papaw took the kids to the house so that they could "help" Daddy. Papaw had to leave Carson with Daddy because Carson wasn't finished helping! The other two gladly came back to Papaw & Grannie's house. Lia claims that it was too hot and that she was very thirsty.

Susan and Alan also helped us this weekend. Alan got a few men from their church to help Dave. That was a huge blessing. And Susan also helped me pack!

On Monday, Grannie took the kids to get new shoes. They all got 2 pairs each. ~Thank you Grannie. This is such a huge help. It adds up really fast when you buy 6pairs of shoes at McDougal's. She also helped me picked out some other stuff for the house. I don't know what I would do without them!

After lunch, we headed back to San Antonio. We got to San Antonio at approximately 7:15 p.m. I had brought a bunch of clothes with me. Some of the clothes were too small for them to wear, so I just needed to do something with all that. I also brought a huge bag full of old shoes. My Mom was so kind to help me sorted all out and put it all up. ~Oh, thank you so much for all your help Mom. Unpacking after a long weekend is not my favorite thing to do. Especially right after a trip, but it's all put away now and I don't have to worry about it anymore.

It was a busy weekend, but look at how God blessed us all weekend long.
