Sum-It-Up Sunday
Our house is still [a tiny bit] in shambles. It's livable, but not completely "show-able." Brian is doing all the work by himself which is GREAT, but he works full time and can therefore only take on a few hours of work each night. The last few pretty-polishing-projects are taking a while. AKA: no landscaping, not all doors hung, not all vent covers covering their vent holes, not all trim stapled up, and not all decorations displayed with their finishing touches.
Not really that big of a deal. PLUS, what are small mishaps amongst friends?! <---Exactly.
But with this in mind, we wanted our first dinner and house guest to be someone wonderful and forgiving and open and non-judgmental and passionate.....
Q: Who do those qualities describe?
A: A priest!
Q: Who is our best friend priest?
A: Fr. M!!!
[Re-meet our favorite priest and main man, Fr. Meconi!]
He gladly accepted the invite, "rented" one of the Jesuit cars, and drove his Bible and holy water to E-ville. We had the best.night.ever.ever.ever. :) So in love with his friendship and his fellowship and also his contributions to the meal [he always picks the best wine!]. After the table was cleared and the bottles were emptied, we sat on the couch and read scripture together before he blessed our new home.

Yes, he did happen to accidentally [?] give three shakes of holy water towards the master bedroom... [Somebody is vocally eager for Godbabies! ;)]
In shambles or [eventually] shamble-less, at least our house is now HOLY! Hehehe :) Please come visit anytime! Our doors are always open and we'll be happy to wine and dine you.....just be sure to step over the vent hole on your way out the door. :)
Other week highlights:
