Social Butterflies...

Yes, we the Taylor's, have been a little bit social lately. I know it is hard to believe but we really have. Saturday night we had the Johnson's and the St.John's over for dinner and it was such a treat. 7 kids all under the age of 5 plus 6 adults....it was a marriage of chaos, noise, and fun. Luckily, we didn't burn the food, no one was seriously injured, and we all had a great time. I so miss my dear friend Jennifer. I had to fight back tears as soon as I saw her. I am sure Bowling Green is thrilled to have them but everyone in Louisville misses them so much.
Sunday night we went to a super bowl party at Rob's house (Brian's friend and co-worker) and had a great time. It was a very easy-going party and it was so nice to meet some of Brian's co-workers (and their wives).
Saturday afternoon was also very exciting because my friend Nicole stopped by with her husband Brian...and a visit from Nicole is a BIG TIME treat for me because #1 we enjoy their company and #2 she does a yearly closet clean out and brings me all of her goodies that she is ready to part with. The nicest sweaters, shirts, pants, shoes, etc. I now even own my first pair of Joe's jeans. You just can't imagine all the stuff. I am sooo very grateful for her thoughtfulness and humbled by the opportunity to own such beautiful clothing. I spent an hour or so cleaning out and organizing my closet to make room for my "new" clothes. It was so exciting. I have worn something new everyday since Saturday. I feel like Cinderella every time I walk into my closet.
I think that covers just about everything. I had one of the places in my neck removed and biopsied and it came back totally benign. I was so relieved. The dr. said something is bothering my lymph nodes so I have switched to organic shampoo, conditioner, lotion, and even went back to my good ol' (non-electric) toothbrush for a while. Hopefully, a combination of those things will do the trick.

Oh...and I wanted to mention that I am in BSF (Bible Study Fellowship) and I can't say enough about it. The program is wonderful for adults and children and the material is so meaty and good. You can look up their website and see if there is one near you. You will not be disappointed.
