one of them turned 87 this weekend.  and so aunt julie came into town!  she is a treasure.  full of life and encouragement, so humble and so funny.  it truly is a blessing to be with her.  (oh look, aunt julie's eating a s'more with ash)

and then we had some friends over for homemade pizza and rainbow cookies.....dorothy's mad because right before i snapped this, her blue m&m fell off....bummer.
Photobucket we ended our weekend worshiping with our life group. garrett, elaina and dave are a fierce worshiping combination. i do believe that needs to become a tradition.

 and tonight i'm helping laura celebrate our steadfast, beautiful, crazy strong friend ellen. her life is so well deserving of celebration. i can't wait.
