The Cathcarts

We had a very nice, fun, and busy weekend.  On Saturday, we went and saw new baby Abbie (see the previous post) and then came home and had a BBQ with Heath, Tanya, and Kade.  It was wonderful being able to sit outside and eat and just enjoy the weather.  The boys had fun playing basketball and throwing the FB around. 

On Sunday we went to church and got poured on as we were walking/running to the van. Pastor Mike preached a wonderful sermon on "The Secret."  To make a long sermon short.  He doesn’t recommend it at all and showed clips of "The Secret" to show how shallow it is.  I felt kind of stupid after the sermon because I bought the DVD for my mom for a birthday present after seeing it on Oprah.  Well, on Oprah all she showed and talked about was the power of positive thinking or approaching issues with a different way of thinking and if it’s on Oprah and has her seel of approval then it must be good, right?  Wrong.  The clips that we saw of it in church are downright shallow and idiotic and I never would have bought it for my mom if I had seen the whole DVD.  Sorry Mom.  If you want to check out the sermon go to www.hopewdm.org. 

Sunday afternoon, Tanya, Susan, and I went and tried on a couple bridesmaid dresses for the wedding.  We decided on the one that we want and it is going to be beautiful in the wedding.  Then that evening Brad and I hosted Soprano night.  We had 3 other couples over and enjoyed a nice dinner and watched the Sopranos. 

We’re off to church and Jaxson is so excited
