Friday potpourri

Last night was band practice and it was a tough one. But I feel like last night was something I really needed under my "worship leading" belt. :) Our Pastor & Executive Pastor will be at a conference and our Worship Pastor will be on a mini vacation. The pastoral staff, for the most part, will be out on Sunday! But the service must go on! And it will. And it will be great!

Tomorrow morning is my long run. I'm spending the day getting myself hydrated and for sure eating some pasta with our grilled salmon tonight. I'm praying for an awesome run and an awesome time of worship and prayer as I hit the running road. The past two Saturdays, I have ran 7 miles. Tomorrow morning I would like to go to 8. My training plan tells me I should be able to do this safely as long as I stick with my normal pace.

After my long run, I plan on relaxing. It's a must! Then in the late afternoon, we are going with my very good friend Monica to a beautiful place near by to have our family pictures done outside. We've decided we want black and white, especially since my living room is a chocolate brown. The pictures will look great on my walls! So white, denim and bare feet is the look we are going for. After our pictures, we are eating some good BBQ at one of our favorite spots with Monica and her family. I cannot wait to see the pictures when were are done!!!! She is a brilliant photographer and amazing with the kids. They adore her so I know she will be able to get awesome shots. I am really hoping to get a great, romantic one of me and Jeremy. We have not had pictures done together since our Wedding.

Sunday morning will be here soon and I am excited! The guys I serve with are incredible. They truly ROCK!

Hope you all have a wonderful weekend. Stay cool! If you are in Texas, that will be impossible so stay wet in the pool!

Happy Friday my friends!

I hope that you get a lot of swim time fit into your weekend and after your 8 mile run...you go girl! Hey, you guys ought to try Salt Lick sometime if you haven't....they have the BEST BBQ!
