Saturday is Asa's wedding day and I think I'm starting to realize that it's real now that people from out of town are starting to trickle in. Today is my birthday (which I keep forgetting about, ha). And people and food are everywhere!!!

Justus got home yesterday after his internship in Texas all summer. The kids (and their parents!) were so happy to see him after his long time away! He hadn't met our newest baby girls yet, so that was pretty amazing. 

 

 

It truly doesn't take much to entertain kids. Keith was carrying around a plastic bat, so Justus grabbed a box and hung it on our play yard for the kids to hit like a pinata. Ha. No candy. No nothing. Just line up and take turns hitting a hanging box!

 

Last week on a super hot day, we had some indoor slime adventures that made a big mess but was worth it at the time. Somehow the experience was captured in a picture, which gives you a little idea of what our days look like. (Poopy diapers not pictured. So. Many. Poopy. Diapers.)

 

 

Thursday I'll be heading to Costco for the biggest haul ever (WEDDING FOOD!!!). Yesterday, I picked up a great big Walmart order (truly, what did we ever do before Walmart Pick-up?!) for all the food we need in our house for our family and guests pre-wedding. 

 

Have I ever told you how much I love food?? We are going through mountains of it right now. It's so fun!

 

This week we're keeping it simple, but having great food like:

Next week, school starts. I don't want to talk about it.

 

Thankful for a God who provides rest amidst these very full days. But only when I seek it. His rest. I choose to rest my mind and spirit in Him,
