Yesterday was quite the eventful Saturday. I woke up this morning and went downstairs to eat breakfast before 11am rolled around. At 11am Gracie and I went next door to Gracie’s friend, Tessa’s house.
You see, yesterday was Tessa’s third birthday party – and it was a dress-up party … and boy was it amazing. The shelves in the playroom were filled with tiara’s and matching earrings, shoes, fur boas, purses and jewelry. A clothing rack held princess, ballerina and fairy tale dresses. We played with princess stickers on pieces of paper, made bracelets out of colored beads and letter beads (Grace’s is spelled Grazce because she just had to have that “z”). There was heart shaped sandwiches and star shaped sandwiches, strawberries and princess pink milk.
Today I braved the Atlanta roadways and made my way to The Bridge Atlanta on my auntie’s recommendation. After an hour of driving in circles (South Berkeley Lake Road does not turn into North Berkeley Lake Road, people.) I made it to the service about 20 minutes late. It was pretty incredible and high tech. I’d never dreamed about a church existing that was so well put together. I felt welcome there and plan on going back – and the message was pretty good too!
It’s pretty difficult to catch all the fun and cute stuff that happens every day – but I’ll try to document it as much as I can. I am happy – still a little nervous and jittery and trying to find my place, but I am very happy where I am at.
Now the true test will be seeing if I can make it to the kids school without getting lost!
