Freedom

Today I had the opportunity to babysit my nephew :-) We had a lot of fun. I was trying to get him to crawl... We're getting there. Haha!

I went to Olive Garden with my mom and sister for lunch. We were celebrating my oldest sister's birthday. She is an old lady now!!! I love you, Megan! Haha 

I ordered a calzone at Olive Garden which means "underwear" in Spanish. When I told Manny I had underwear for lunch, he wanted some too. So for dinner, we went to Mario's and got some underwear. Yum! I didn't think he would be hungry because we went to the mall and got samples from the food court. They always have lots of samples. All those people on the streets begging for food should just go to the mall for free samples :-)

...After Mario's we drove over to Sam's club because Megan said they are having an open house. I googled it and the open house is all this weekend. SWEET! By the time we got to Sam's, it was closed. We will try again later. 

We got home and made s'mores with Reese's (How can we have some more when we haven't even had any? haha). Since we have an electric stove, we just heat up the marshmallows in the microwave. If you've never done that before, I highly recommend trying it. It's a good experience. I'll give you a glimpse of what you're missing out on...

Look at how big that marshmallow is!!! 

This is an up close picture of the marshmallow in the microwave...

Taking up close pictures of something in a microwave doesn't work so well, just in case you were wondering. Haha!

I don't have anything super insightful to say today, just a simple thought. The name Joshua is Hebrew for Jesus (they come from the same Hebrew root word). So Joshua helping the Israelites fight the Amalekites and Joshua leading the Israelites to the Promised Land, were both pictures of what was to come with Jesus. Jesus just did it on a much larger scale: He saved the whole world, not just God's chosen people. Any thoughts??
