Dex and beans and whatnot...

{★}  We had a fabulous weekend!  Lunch with the fam on Saturday was lovely, and my sweet little cousin ended up getting ENGAGED!  Congratulations, Sam!

{★}  We tried rice cereal for the first time last night.  Grace is definitely not a fan.  If you need a laugh today, you should totally watch this video to see her reaction.  Girlfriend would hardly let me come near her with the spoon after she tasted it.


{★}  Dexter series finale.

Oh. Em. Gee.

OH. EM. GEE.

I won't ruin it for you in case you DVRd it (and be sure and keep any comments you leave sufficiently vague so we don't give it away), but.... I just... I can't... ugh.

{★}  We had Gracie's dedication yesterday at church.  And I swear to goodness, I must be the worst mom EVER because I didn't get a single picture.  Like not one.  It was a hectic morning, so I didn't have time beforehand, and then all of our family came to our house for barbecue afterward, and I was busy playing host.  And then Grace fell asleep while everyone was leaving, so we were left with no one to take our picture after she woke up.  Apparently I'll just have to rely on my memory.

Oh, and then we poisoned all of our guests.

Okay, not really all of them.  But everyone who ate beans was up all night last night sick.  I feel so terrible.  And poor Micah.  He had the stomach bug last week and then food poisoning last night.  And I managed to avoid both (because who eats beans when there are cheesy potatoes and smoked sausage?).  I'm pretty sure he hates the world right now.

So that's what we've been up to.  How about you guys?
