I've Been Up FOREVER!!

I had my DVR set and ready to go, but I still got up at 3:00 a.m. this morning! Being a history major, I just couldn't miss the history, while it was happening! I had to watch the Royal Wedding of Prince William and Kate Middleton! I just went gaga over the wedding dress and ceremony! Even Casey got up to watch!! That really shocked me! We did enjoy watching together. I managed to get to see the whole ceremony, up until they got in the carriage procession. I made it to work just in time to see them come out onto the balcony and kiss!

I had read their wedding program yesterday and was very curious about the ceremony. See, Casey and I are renewing our wedding vows tomorrow (Saturday, April 30th) to celebrate our 20th year together. There were several of the same songs and scriptures we had picked for our ceremony, that were in the Royal Wedding today. So, you can imagine that I am REALLY pumped about our ceremony tomorrow!

The puppies, bless their hearts, tried to stay up as long as they could, but by the end, this is what Indy ended up looking like!

I found this really cool web site about the Royal Dogs through the years. I've posted it in honor of the happy couple:

Busy Week!!

Last week was SUPER busy! My Godmother, Marie, visited from Oklahoma. It's the first time I've gotten to visit with her in 13 years! We had a great time visiting and catching up. Hopefully, we won't have to wait that long to visit again. Here's a couple of shots from the visit. Marie and My Mom. Marie and Me It was a very busy weekend also. I got a couple of good swim workouts in this past weekend. I had been slacking, since we had visitors. Also, yesterday started Holy Week at church. We had Palm Sunday services yesterday morning. Last night, we had the Seder Passover Meal. I've done this dinner for the past 2 years, and I really enjoy it. It really helps me to connect to the history of the Christian faith. After we ate the traditional Seder foods, we just had an old fashioned potluck dinner. It was SOOOO good. I ate way too much! I'll have to swim and run extra this week to make up for it! Here are some shots from last night's dinner. This week will be exciting too! I'll attend all of the Holy Week services including, Maundy Thursday, Good Friday, and the Easter Vigil on Saturday. I really enjoy all of these services. This is really one of my favorite times of the church year!

A great shot of a super service dog that I saw at swim practice yesterday. He was a mighty big fella, and he wouldn't fit all the way into the changing stall!! What a good boy!!
