Mom Arrives in Florida!

Sunday, March 3
Last Sunday, we visited Westside Baptist Church in Jax.  Today was our second visit.  We visited their Connection Groups at 9:30am.  We were then invited by several people to join the All-Church Choir that they were doing that morning.  Before church began, the worship pastor, Lee, stopped by our seats to talk with us and also invited us to sing.  He told us the story of how he was attending a country church while in college in the summer.  On his first Sunday, he was asked to come and sing in the choir.  They had an All-Church Choir every Sunday!  So as a first-time visitor, he sang in the choir.  He said to us, How cool it would be for you all to join us in the choir on your second Sunday!

So, we did!  This is a photo from Facebook - can you spot us in the choir? :)

After we sang, we left the choir loft to sit in the auditorium.  The worship pastor's wife handed these to us as we went to our seats.  How creative!  And it worked for us to get us involved. :)


That evening, Sierra and Summer visited the youth group at Westside.  Sierra came home with a sweatshirt that she won.


On the way home, she had to get gas.  I was laughing that she FaceTimed me to make sure she did it right.


My silly girl!


A few videos of my kitty "hunting"!  She's so funny!





Mom flew in on Tuesday.  This is the list that Summer made for her. :)





Her flight was delayed.  She was supposed to land at 5pm but didn't land until close to 7:30pm.
I had meatloaf, roasted red potatoes, and zucchini-onion pie for dinner.

Happy 45th Birthday, Eric!

  Happy birthday to my husband, Eric!   He turns 45 today.  I am surprising him with tickets to a Miami Dolphins game in Miami.  I got him tickets one other time years ago when we lived in Reno.  We drove to Oakland to see the Dolphins play the Raiders.  I think this will be a great memory for him and a home game too! Happy birthday, babe!

Recipe: Chicken Parmesan

  Chicken Parmesan This is a delicious recipe from Magnolia Table: Volume 2. 2 boneless, skinless chicken breasts  1/4 tsp. kosher salt 1/4 tsp. freshly ground black pepper 2 large eggs 1 tsp. garlic salt 1 sleeve (30-40) buttery crackers, crushed 4 oz. Parmesan cheese, grated (about 1 cup) 2 tbsp. olive oil 1 tsp. fresh lemon juice 1/2 cup mayo 1 tbsp. chopped fresh parsley (optional) Preheat the oven to 400 degrees.
