so chuck and i are going away this weekend.  we have a wedding to go to in ann arbor.  we are going with another couple and all the kids are staying home.  though i miss pumpkin_seed when she isn’t with me, i do love some one-on-one time alone with buster!!  we will be leaving tomorrow around noon and getting home late saturday evening.  can’t wait, it’s gonna be so much fun!!  what are your plans for the weekend????

i know some of my friends are going to “the shack” for a marriage retreat this weekend.  this will be the first one we have missed in ten years!! so sad we won’t be going, but hopefully the church we are attending now will start one up very soon!!

i do miss all my friends from FBC but i don’t think friends are a good a reason to stay at a church, especially when God is calling you elsewhere!!  i am hoping all my friends understand that!! we aren’t mad at anyone  or upset…we just feel like we can serve the Lord better somewhere else!

someone wise told me that my real friends will still be my friends and keep in touch and we’ll spend time together and the others will think about me and pray for me and say hi when they see me, but go on with their lives without me…..it pains me to think that any of my “friends” would only do that latter, but i have seen it already and it makes me very sad!!  but God knows my heart and buster’s and he knows we just want to serve him to the best of our abilities and that is enough for me!

hope your weekend is great….will try to get my “foodie friday” to post for tomorrow, if it doesn’t work , i probably won’t be on here til  sunday!! til then, i will miss you …
