Weekend Recap

For the 1st weekend in 3 weeks, I didnt have to work, which means that my hubby didnt have to help me out either at the church.  So, what did we do?  Stayed home all weekend, with the highlight being the Saturday trip to Dollar General, the trip into town to mass, and the Bills game was on TV in Louisiana (which in our house is like the holy grail making an appearance).  So as my son continued to be indoctrinated with the Buffalo Bills and cheering everytime his daddy would, I cooked and cooked and cooked all weekend long.  Loved it because I havent had a chance to do this it seems in months.  Ill share my chicken recipe at the bottom. Anyway, we went to get ready for Mass, which is the Lifeteen mass.  The music is great, the mass is great, and everyone is in jeans pretty much.  Well, as I dress JG in his kacki shorts and polo shirt, he says:

JG: Mama I just want to wear my boots

Me: ok I think we have extra shoes at the office to change into before mass

JG: I want to wear my "Iwon Man" boots to Mass

Me: We will see

Get to office, no shoes so, rubber boots about an inch below where his kacki shorts ended.  Everyone was looking, starring, saying "oh how cute" but probably thinking, this mama is psycho.  Well needless to say, I pick my battles.  As he kneeled in church after communion with a clunk one of his boots fell off, but I put it back on and asked him who he wanted to pray for.  LOUDLY:

JG:  I WANT TO PRAY FOR EMILY!!

I love my kids!
