My First Easter as a Wife

WHAT A WEEKEND! Right?!?

Friday morning I woke up with a sore throat still and pretty much stayed in bed most of the day...Kyle was super sweet and took care of me...he knows that my Love Language is of course "Acts of Service." He is such a wonderful provider and I am very blessed to have such a incredible encourager in my life....I could really just write a book about him, BUT I will SPARE ALL OF YOU with THAT!!  Haha:)  Want to know your Love Language?(Click on the highlighted Title)

I ended up going to my Wholistic Doctor on Saturday, because I wanted to make sure I was getting better AND not worse...got new vitamins and I was Out the door.  I stayed in my PJs and we watched two really great movies..."The Kings Speech" AND "Country Strong"...Kyle normally disgusts those "English Movies," because you LITERALLY have to put your ear to the television to understand what the heck they are saying sometimes...he secretly liked the movie though...it had counseling in it!! HA! On-the-other-hand, Country Strong was a surprise to me...it was REALLY SAD, but the music was SUPER-GOOD!! LOVE LOVE LOVE This song below:

Plus, Kyle is an incredible country dancer...Two-step and all...so of course this movie was like taking him back to his Roots:)

On Easter Sunday, I woke up feeling better, which was a sigh of relief...we packed up the brownies that I made, BUT of course couldn't eat and went to Mary Helen's house to have a late lunch with everyone:)
Our Lunch included: Steak, Chicken, baked potatoes, fresh salad, zucchini & Squash, French Bread & My Brownies..ALL yummy AND hormone-free...it was GOOOOOODDDDD!  I showed up in my PJs...and it was SO FUN to spend time with Family!!  However, this just wouldn't be a normal blog without a weekend adventure...Right? LOL!  As we were sitting down to eat...My Sis-in-Law Brynne, was slicing the Bread up...and within seconds cut her left thumb with the knife.  She was extremely calm & did not freak out whatsoever, heck I didn't even know she had cut it until she was at the sink running water over it! We got the First Aid Kit out...and started planning on how to wrap it...the next thing I know...her eyes rolled to the back of her head and she was on the floor!!  Thankfully, Spencer, my brother-in-law, was there to catch her.  NO WORRIES PEOPLE...she was responding...I think it was just the blood and honestly it was a deep cut...she was taken to Care Now and stitched up!! 




It was a Beautiful Easter. Such Love, Fun Easter Egg Hunt, Great Talks, Yummy Food...it was lovely:)

I know that my husband shared the importance of a blessing a couple of weeks ago with all of you AND he has been writing a blessing for each of his immediate family members; I thought I would share the one he spoke over me with all of you:)



Lauren, you are like a lightning bug in a dark room,
no one can hide your light. You are special and
a delight to your loved ones. You are accepted just
the way you are. You are Loved & Highly Valued, blessed
favored, and wanted.  You have such a bright future in
front of you that many people can only dream about.
Your past is in your past and your future awaits!!
I am proud of who you are and what you are about to
accomplish; you are the light of my life &
you are well-loved.




XOXO,
