This weekend was so much fun. Friday night my brother and his girlfriend came over. We always have a great time with them. We played lots of games, and Garth made this yummy tomato and zucchini pasta.
Saturday Garth's mom and sister came over and we talked, played games, and Garth made this delish broccoli chicken pasta.
Sunday we went to church and then out to lunch with my parents. It was such a beautiful day so we went for a walk around the lake, checked out some open houses, talked, and drank Starbucks. So fun! Then we came home to relax. We finally watched Fireproof and we both LOVED it! I seriously want to own this movie. It was so well written and it couldn't have come at a better time - when the economy is rough and divorce is at a high. And if you rent or own the movie, you have to watch the gag reel. HILARIOUS. I just adore this movie, so much so that Garth and I have started The Love Dare. Our goal is to read it every morning before our prayer time.
What a great weekend and it just went by waaaay too fast.

It sounds like a wonderful weekend! I haven't seen Fireproof yet but it is definitely on our list of movies to see.
and I agree with you, the weekend did go by WAY too fast!
It always seems to happen like that, where it's Sunday night and I wonder where the weekend went!
Glad it was a good one!
I agree, it was a great weekend!! It was so great seeing you guys on Sat!!! We will have to get together soon when I have Lilly so she can hang out with us too!! Oooo, maybe we can go on a picnic/cook out at a park with our families!
Looks like it was a great weekend! Thanks for mentioning the book, The Love Dare. I'd heard of Fireproof, but not the book, and will now definitely be looking into buying it!
Sounds like such a great weekend!!
I haven't seen Fireproof yet, but I keep hearing such great reviews about it that I really want to!!
That sounds like a great weekend! The weekend did go by fast, but I didn't mind this time since I am off for Spring Break. I really need to remember to get that movie the next time I am looking for a movie to rent.
I agree with you - the weekend goes by waaayyy too fast!
I have heard lots of good things about the movie Fireproof, I may pick it up the next time I'm out.
Girl, I think the same thing every Monday. Weekends are not long enough :)
Isn't Fireproof GREAT!
Hi There! I'm Angie from St. Louis and I just stumbled across your blog and I'm really enjoying it!
What an awesome weekend!
Oh, and I loved Fireproof too! I cried and cried and cried. And then I wanted to watch it with hubby the next night, and the kids managed to bust our tv. :(
Oh well, as soon as we get a new one I'm whipping that movie out. I think he will like it!
Sounds like you had a lovely weekend! They do always fly by huh??
So cool that your hubby can cook! I'm jealous :)
I love weekends with family, friends and relaxing times too :) Glad you had a good one!
Sounds like a great weekend! We watched Fireproof this weekend too! The acting at times left a little to be desired but the message was great.
Sounds like a prefect weekend!
I haven't seen Fireproof yet but I want to watch it. I've also heard about this Love Dare thing but don't know much about it. Care to share some of the things suggested by that book? Just curious. Glad you had a great weekend! :-)
Gosh, I love weekends like that! And Fireproof...amazing. We watched it with a theater full of people from church, then we all attended a 6 week class based on the movie...it was awesome. Just in our class alone we saw a marriage on the edge of divorce, restored! It was amazing!
I love that movie too! We got the Love Dare book for our wedding. I'm actually saving it to read a little later down the road! I'd love to hear how it goes for you guys! :)
I need to see this movie. I swear everyone I know is watching it! Good for you and Garth- good luck on the devotionals.
I think we need to have more three day weekends just so we can sit back and enjoy them more.
sounds like a great weekend Drew and I so need to watch fireproof!
I have heard such good things about Fireproof... its on my Netflix queue, but it says it has a "very long wait"...sigh.
Sounds like a fun weekend :)
I've been dying to watch Fireproof! It's been on my Netflix queue forever. Happy to hear that it's worth the wait :)
Ugh! I hate that Firefox doesn't catch every spelling error! Anyway, it sounds like you had a wonderful weekend! I can't wait to see that movie. Hopefully it will arrive via Netflix soon!
Wonderful!! So glad you enjoyed Fireproof!! We loved it so much too. Can't wait to hear how the study goes!!
What a fun weekend!!
I agree- weekends do go by too fast. I think that we should only be allowed to work 4 day weeks and have a 3 day weekend. That's more like it :)
That sounds fun, busy, but fun! I really want to see Fireproof. I keep hearing good things about it.
Wow all the food Garth made sounds really yummy!!! And any weekend that includes Starbucks is a good one to me as well. We really enjoyed "Fireproof" as well. We haven't getten to the Love dare yet, but I have been doing a little of it on my own. Glad you guys had such a great weekend.
We liked Fireproof too. Not the acting of course, but the message was great. Make sure and let us know how the love dare goes!
Great weekend! I was just telling my friend this morning that weekends go by too freaking fast!
I totally agree with you bout the weekend. Last night before bed I said to Luke, "Is the weekend seriously over already?!" I just can't believe how fast they go.
Luke and I watched Fireproof a few weeks ago and thought it was pretty good...I've heard testimonies of marriages that have been saved because of it. Luke got me "The Love Dare" for Christmas, but we haven't been disciplined enough to begin it yet! Hopefully this summer when I'm off work. Let me know how it is :-)
I heard that movie was really good! I have it in my netflix queue, but there is a very long wait for it.
Sounds like a fun weekend! They do go by too fast though!
Sounds like a wonderful weekend! I have yet to see that movie, I keep hearing how good it is!
We just watched Fireproof for the first time this weekend too! Loved it. Made me cry!
I think it's adorable that you guys have prayer time!!!
Those that pray together stay together fo sho. ;)
fireproof is awesome!!
and does your hubby give cooking classes for non cooking hubbies????
Sounds like you had a wonderful weekend. Yay for fun times with the family :)
We also both loved Fireproof. Such a great movie!
As you remember I wrote about Standards and one of the thing the hubs and I want to incorporate into our lives is a daily devotional time. So let me know what ya'll think of the Love Dare. We actually already own the book but haven't even opened it yet. Yea.. I know!
Hi, I'm back visiting..
Time just jealous with you...Looking forward for your next post..
Yay for the Love Dare! Although, my brother said when he & his wife were trying to complete it at the same time it was hard because they knew what to expect. Good luck!!
I have been meaning to buy The Love Dare...thanks for the reminder!
I agree Fireproof is one amazing movie! I can't wait to own it too!
I'd love to hear what you guys think about the love dare! :)
Just wanted to thank you for your kind comments.
Sounds like a great weekend!! I loved Fireproof too.
Fabulous weekend and fabulous movie! I heart that movie too. Father-in-law bought us The Love Dare for Christmas and I have been doing it to Mr. McB. :)
