Weekend update

Is it already Sunday night?? How does that happen so quickly?? :) This Friday night we went to Bethlehem Revisited at a church in Versailles; it was pretty neat. They had the church all set up like Bethlehem, complete with a marketplace, animals, lepers, etc. and of course a sweet manger scene with a real Baby Jesus who was so tiny and sweet it made me tear up! We also sang some carols and listened to a short message. My mom watched Caleb and I'm glad because we had to wait in a pretty long line, and he wouldn't have "gotten it" anyway. We ate at Ramsey's afterwards and I got my FAVORITE thing there; chicken and dumplings, YUMMY!!! My stomach is growling right now just thinking about it.
On Saturday we didn't much of anything. I made homemade tomato soup and grilled cheese from www.allrecipes.com. They were pretty delicious. We rented "A Muppet Christmas Carol" and "The Santa Clause". Can you believe I'd NEVER seen "The Santa Clause"??? It was cute, and I love the Muppets in anything, so that was a sure winner. Caleb fell asleep right when we would leave for church, so we decided to wait and go in the morning.
So we went to the 11:30 service today at church...the message was about love; God's love that was shown to us at Christmas, and the amazing ways in which Jesus fulfills so much of the Old Testament prophecies. He also talked about giving to others this Christmas. Next week they are doing SIX weddings as a part of the message series, one at each of the services, plus an extra one in a separate building at the 10:00 service. It should be great! Think of all the wedding gifts they're going to get...thousands!!!! Whew!
After church we came home, Bryan studied for a test and did some paperwork, I played with Caleb, we went to life group, ate yummy tacos, and came home. Got Caleb to sleep, read some more of "New Moon" (not so sure about this werewolf thing at the moment), and need to go to bed now!
