Last Thursday my friend Gail came over to my house while Titus napped because i decided i was going to go get a spray tan, i had heard that a place here in hannibal had it and it was only $20, any of you who know me know that i am pretty pale, so i thought i would give it a shot since Jarrell and i are going to Louisville in August for a wedding he is in and i know i have to wear a dress, i thought i would try this instead of going to a tanning bed(dont think thats very good for you), and if it worked then i would go back right before the wedding, so this was a test run i guess you could say.....anyway, as i walked out of the salon after getting my spray tan, which by the way i LOVE and cant beleive it looks this real, as i walked out of the salon i ran into 3 young girls, couldnt have been past age 16(im only 25 but they just seem young for some reason lol), anyway one of them was on her phone and this is the conversation i heard(the i wish i hadnt have): In a yelling voice: "Well you need to stop playin her! He said you were sleeping with his ex girlfriend, and hes gonna come whoop your a##, you guys are just over there all day smoking weed at her house!" You stupid Mother F$#*%)!"
I just got in my car(which was behind another car so they couldnt see me), and i just sat there, probably for a good few minutes and just stared forward, then i started to pray, i was so discouraged. Then i started to wonder if i was just oblivious and nieve. Am i? I mean i just couldnt beleive that girls this young were involved in things like this and were talking the way they were. It broke my heart. Then i started to think about the young women at our church, and how i have been wanting to start a bible study with them, maybe this was God telling me to get with it and get this started all ready, we have been so busy this summer that a lot of things are being put on hold. But i looked up books yesterday and am planning on starting soon.
On friday Titus and i had a good day in Quincy. We went to old navy first and i got titus a pair of pj's that were 95% off, pretty sweet if you ask me. Then we went and ate at panera bread(my fav place to eat) and it was a blast. I got my usual, half a sierra turkey sand. and a bowl of broccoli cheddar soup. Titus got a grilled cheese and some organic blueberry yogurt(go gurt), we shared a drink, it was such a good time. Here is a picture from our lunch date;)
On Saturday Jarrell, Titus and i went over to eat at Scott and Martha Slaytons house, they are a couple from our church and their testimony is absolutely amazing and encouraging. I dont know all of it but i do know they were married and divorced and seperated(like in different states) for a while and then they both got saved and God brought them back together and restored their marriage. Its incredible and they are living proof of Gods grace and mercy. Here is a picture we took before leaving for their house:
We had a lot of fun, we ate steak, summer squash, potatoes, and martha can cook now, she blew me out of the water(not hard to do though, i am still learning), but it was really good. They gave us a grand tour of their cute little home, it has so much character, and it very homey. Then we all 5, with titus in the stroller decided to take JB(their sweet golden retriever) for a walk. They live over by HLG campus(where jarrell and i both went to college and met), so we walked through campus, and it was really neat actually, have so many memories there, some bad some good, but mostly good, and it was neat cause we told them kinda our story and how we met and got engaged and then Jarrell decided to tell them that i was a cheerleader, in which i try to keep kinda secret(and i just told my whole blog world), lol...but anyway martha was impressed and i told her not to be cause i wasnt very good, and although i did have to try out, we were nothing like what you would call varsity college level cheerleaders, but it was fun and i enjoyed it and met a lot of great christian people through it. When we got back Titus was getting fussy and i realized i didnt even bring a diaper for him(i am a terrible mommy, that needs to go on my not me monday post i am gonna do next!) SO we left and came home and got little titus into bed and watched Reba.
Sunday we went to church, as a family! I say it like that because Jarrell has to work every other weekend and so we dont get to go much as a family, because when he is off we go to visit our families out of town a lot and so we get to go as a family but not to our home church. So we went to church and then we went out to eat at pizza hut, we had the buffet. Titus was well behaved which made me happy because their were a lot of people there. Then we came home and put ti down for his nap and jarrell and i lounged around and watched Madea goes to jail, it was funny and had a good message as well, i really like all the tyler perry plays and movies. That night we went back to church and then came home and ate mcdonalds(we got out late so we just ran and picked something up), then titus got his bath, and i put him down and then we of course watched reba(we are on episode 14) and went to bed ourselves.
SO here we are, its monday, and i think i am all ketched up....lol. stay tuned for my Not Me Monday post, coming soon...(hopefully if the kids nap as planned)
