My thoughts are going in several directions. Lots of prayer and internal wrestling with hard emotions. I'll avoid going into detail in an effort to guard my heart and guard my readers from anything unhealthy there. Thankful for praying friends, quality time with Mom, and getting to have lunch with Elizabeth and Ashley this week... it's always refreshing to be around people who listen well and prefer authenticity to the appearance of perfection! I may write a deeper, more detailed post later, but that's all I want to say at this point.
A lot of my "Spring Break" week was spent at the hospital with Grandad, Babah, and Mom. (Jace painted some horses for him, and J&K painted the suncatchers that brighten up his window there.)
These pics were taken when I was home last weekend. Fun times with the niece and nephews!
I tried out the new Club Pilates in Jenks (they offered a free Intro class), and it was pretty awesome. =) Sadly, it's around $200 a month to join, so I'll stick with my DVDs and Planet Fitness membership!
While Dad was gone with Rach and the kids to San Antonio, Mom and I painted her front door - something she's been wanting to do for a while. We "pounced" it with sponges, layering pinks and purple, followed by greens and blue, then golds, then two layers of copper on top of everything else. It creates a marble effect with hints of all those colors shining through. Worth the effort! =)
Grandad eating breakfast... holding the flowers Bryce sent them... and playing dominoes with his friend, Buster, and two of the nurses there! I loved that! ❤
This Girl Scout cookie jar from 1962 = their dominoes container. Pretty awesome!
Jaceman proud of himself after hitting some good golf shots!
Swinging with the Miss K =)
And now with Grandpa pushing her!
They hopped in to take a "swimming " photo in their future pool!
Jace has been really good with Grandad as he's been at the hospital.
And good for him, too. ❤ (Grandad will be moved to a skilled nursing facility this coming Tuesday, so pray for a smooth transition and for God's mercy all around.)
Kyndal Faith stacking a Star Wars puzzle! =)
Dad coaching Jace on his golf swing!
A panoramic shot of the biggest cumulus cloud wall I've seen in years (it kept going around the other side of the house)!
And finally, a slideshow I put together of their Sea World trip - looks like they had lots of fun!! =)
(I was invited, and in the end, decided it was best for Dad to go with them and me to stay home with Mom). Hopefully we'll all get to go again someday!
