Refreshment

What a great few days it's been since my last post! Last Friday I flew through my few classes, had an easy breezy day at work and headed out for a night with Chelsea. After a lovely meal at the lovely Marshall Chilis we ventured down to watch our first Mavs game as a coaches girl friend and coaches girl friend's roommate. We used our "Coaches Family" parking pass and parked at the field house and came in through the back gate where we found our seats. As we sat and the game begin we got to realizing that these seats were really good. We were shocked that such seats were handed out to the "family" of (no offense Matt) one of the lowest guys on the totem pole. As the game continued and we watched the half time entertainment I happened to glance behind me to see the rather large C on the press box marking the section of seats we had enjoyed all night. I looked at Chelsea confused, pointed out my discovery and realized that we were most definitely in the wrong section. We started to look around and notice that the seats we were originally assigned to were a ways down the bleachers in a very crowded area directly beside the student section. Needless to say we stayed put. Another home game this week and we're not looking as forward to our seating arrangements. Sometimes I wish we could just go on living in ignorance.
Saturday after watching too much tv, Chelsea and I drug ourselves up our of the living room and went to Longview for a while. We shopped a little and ate at a little hole in the wall Mexican restaurant called Gonzolos (on the loop right next to Hobby Lobby.) Mexican has to be our favorite cuisine and we try nearly every restaurant suggestion that we get. Not rushing back to this one but it was pretty good. After dinner we walked over to Ross, tried on some clothes and laughed at how small they were on us. We ended the night at Matt's where we enjoyed the beautiful weather and company of great friends out on the porch as Matt serenaded us with the guitar and our favorite tunes.
Sunday was promotion day for Sunday School. I have moved down to the assistant teacher for 1st and 2nd grade and a wonderful lady named Janie had stepped in to teach. With school starting I felt like I might not be able to put my all into preparing. We were so surprised, blessed and thankful when our little room began to fill up and we had 19 kids! Some were guests but we feel like we will have at least 12 on a regular basis. Exciting! Instead of the regular lesson we were entertained by a very energetic older lady who put on an really sweet puppet show for the kids. The kids loved it and us adults found ourselves laughing and singing along as well. Such a great refreshing break from the norm!
