instaweekend love...

holla! it's monday!

time to get up and get another week started!

first up...

i've changed the post title from

instagram weekend love....

to

instaweekend love!

why?

because i haven't been using instagram exclusively these days.

as of late...

along with instagram

i've found some other very cool photo apps

that i've been taking my pics with

hence, the reason for the title change.

anyhoo, moving along...

this weekend started off with a... 

run! yep, a run!

i finally got myself out there...

a slow and steady run...

but a run nonetheless.

then we had back to back basketball games...

michael played on friday night with a church league...

and maddie who plays on her middle school basketball team 

got recruited to play on a weekend league

and that was on saturday afternoon 

after she played 2 hours of soccer before the game!

ay caramba!

she's a ball of energy!

sunday morning tradition...

prepared by the hubs...

our version of a filipino breakfast 

bacon, eggs and garlic rice

(no rice in the pic)

dark rain clouds looming above us sunday morning...

waiting for worship to begin...

for lunch maddie was craving fried pickles

so she looked up a recipe and made some.

 i worked on our family calendar ...

because our week is jammed packed!

and the weekend ended with our small group

on the study of the prodigal god.

which we didn't finish because there was

a minor emergency that happened

but all is good and we'll have to pick up with 

chapter 4 next sunday!

and just in case y'all were wondering...

the other cool apps i've been using are:

camera+

camera bag

disposable camera

classic booth

hipstamatic

lastly, i would like to ask if you 

could you please pray for a very young friend of mine

who's mom had a stroke

and is not getting any feeling on her left side.

last i heard is that they may possibly 

do surgery on the bad artery to prevent

 another stroke from happening.

i'm sure she would appreciate the prayers being lifted up.

thanks fam and friends!
