What a wonderful weekend! I really don't know if it could have been any better. Brian and I had a fantastic evening on Friday. We went out for dinner after taking the dogs to McAllister Park, then decided to check out the cribs on clearance at Babies-R-Us. We found a fabulous crib, which matches Abby's room perfectly! We spent most of Saturday going to pick it up, setting it up at home, running around finding the right hardware to replace one missing barrel nut, and finally finished late that afternoon. I'll post a picture of Abby's crib in her room below; we don't have any bedding or any other frills yet, so excuse the bare-bones look. :-)
Sunday was great too. I play violin on our church's worship team and yesterday I had a little solo part to play in "It is well with my Soul." I kept thinking about Soren and actually started crying during my solo in the first service; I hope no one noticed in the audience, especially since my wonderful husband had a close-up of me on the big screen...but by God's grace I held it together and finished the song, and then proceeded to play well in the second service. If anyone reading this blog hasn't heard the background story of the man who wrote "It is Well" you should definitely look it up. He lost his entire family - wife and four children - over a very short period of time, and then proceeded to write that song. How inspiring - what courage, what faith!
Anyway, the rest of Sunday was great too; we watched the Steelers gain another win this week over the Browns. Then last night we were blessed to watch the last two videos in the John Adams documentary series with the Gaineses. Thanks Matt and Jana! It makes us want to go back and re-read/listen to the book!
