1. It was Spa Day at MOPS this week.  Best morning of the year!  Free spa experience including:  a wonderful breakfast spread, a personalized bottle of lotion mixed with the essential oil of your choice, a hair style/up-do, a nail polish application, a paraffin dip for hands, a makeup application, and a gift bag filled with spa goodies.  Obviously a wonderful morning:)  
2. Brent's been trying out a high protein diet.  Honestly, my first response was not favorable, but I'm trying to see the bright side.  The bright side I found is that there is always fully-cooked meat in the fridge (thanks to Brent's food prep), which makes meal prep even easier for me because I just have to come up with a side or two for Luke and I to eat with it.    
3. I learned this week that cleaning for and with a friend is the best kind of cleaning:)  I got to spend a couple hours helping a friend prepare her house to sell, and, yes, it was fun!  Maybe I should consider group cleaning more often;)
4. We got to meet our friends' new baby boy this weekend and hang out over dinner.  It is always so fun to see those we love move into a new stage of life with a new little one:)
5. So my #5 from last week may not have made a lot of sense, but this week I made a difficult decision that I know was best for our family right now.  I'm not good at setting limits for myself, so this was a big step.
