What a whirlwind...so much about this weekend was wonderful! I had the girls, which are always the best weekends. The temperatures dropped into the 50s on Friday, and the season's first pot of potato leek soup simmered on the stove all afternoon. It was beautiful...
Saturday, my sweet friend Eric invited me to the OU-Tennessee game, which we watched from his suite...I'm afraid I have been ruined for life, and will never want to sit in the stadium again. The boys delivered a win, and I met some lovely people and watched from an incredible vantage point.
A little before 5am on Sunday, I got a message from Emily that she was in labor. Less than an hour later, Harper arrived, and she is gorgeous and perfect in every way. Never has the Universe wanted a baby to be here more than with this child, and her momma is lucky to have the love and support of an extended family that cares for her unconditionally.
Sunday afternoon, the girls and I got to meet a new friend before we headed off to the fair with Ashley, where we engaged in a little gluttony, rode the swings, and marveled at humanity.
There is so much to be thankful for...for my girls, good friends, fall, potato soup, beautiful sunsets, football suites, the blessing of new life and new beginnings, and the fair. I ask prayers for my friend...and all the obese women in crop tops I saw today. :)
