Firsts

These past few weeks have been busy and contained a few firsts for us.  A few weeks ago we headed to Oklahoma to see some friends of ours.  First time for Mady and I to go to Oklahoma.  We had a great time visiting and Mady loved playing with their two boys.

Valentine's day Nick and I had to work.  Once I was off and picked up Mady, we waited for Nick to get home.  We spent the beautiful day outside and then went out for dinner.  Mady had a great time charming everybody at the restaurant.  Love the smiles and sweetness she gives to others.

Last weekend I took off for a women's church retreat at a ranch up north.  I have never been on one so I really had no expectations.  It turned out to be a great getaway for a little while, spending time with some amazing women and focusing on the greatness of God.  The weekend was full of great conversations, music, and an awesome speaker.  We even got to go horseback riding!  When I got back I was physically tired but mentally refreshed.

Next week we close out another month!  Where does the time go?!
