Happy Things

Some things that I’ve been loving these days…

All of the beautiful flowers!
Grapefruit

Monin Coconut Lattes

My TOMS and colored pants

Hubby being home

and to top it all off… all of these sunny days!

Tumblr

Since I’m not the best at blogging because I don’t have the time I recently made an account with Tumblr. What does this even mean? Well…I post pictures all of the time through my phone onto instagram and typically link them to facebook for other people to see but now I can easily link them to my tumblr account so you can see them too! It’s another type of blog but focuses on photos.

Sister’s Blog

I’ve been gradually nudging Kendra to create a blog because it’s a great way to stay updated on people’s lives when you live far away and I knew she’d make such fun posts.

 And…
She finally did!

I love seeing pictures of their cute home and all of her arty/crafty ideas. I need her to come help Jon and I with our place! :) What a talented woman she is! Can’t wait to see how God is going to use her once she gets her Interior Design degree!

Easter

He is Risen!
He is Risen Indeed!

And WITH HIM, we also have been resurrected from the dead! It has no hold on us, no power, no control! So in faith we can live, not in fear….to be and to do ALL that He is calling us to! There is NOTHING impossible for us….for our God has overcome even death…and if it is possible for death to be defeated, what else can stand in the way of those who live for Him?! NOTHING. Live in this truth….and never settle! Be one of whom the world is not worthy….


We hope that you all have a blessed Easter!

Spring Quarter 2012

Today is the beginning of another quarter for me. My last quarter before I complete my Associates of Arts & Science degree!

Just a little inspiration for myself and for you too! What would our days look like if we woke up and had this kind of attitude every day?! Better I’m sure!

So much to catch up on but for now I leave you with this…

       

First Day of Spring!

Happy first day of Spring!!!

I love that the sun rises earlier and sets later in the evening. Oh the joys of spring! It seems to make everything better. Today I’m enjoying these beautiful flowers from around our house and anticipating planting a garden and seeing lots of flowers blooming soon!

I hope that you all have a fabulous first day of spring! 

(P.S. I have so many things to catch up on…San Diego trip, Jon’s 30th birthday, and a fun family filled St. Patty’s Day weekend!) 

Cream in Coffee

Jon…

Can’t wait for you to finally come home tomorrow
after two long months away!

Worship Night

Last fall we had our first worship night at my church and on Sunday night we had our second! They are always so refreshing. One hour of worship, giving all the praise and worries of life to Him. Completely focused on Him and overwhelmed with His immense amount of love and grace for us all. It was the highlight to my day and makes me miss YWAM even more.

This song has been my favorite song these days. With everything that is going on and having to completely trust God with the future (nursing school specifically) this song resonates deep down and is such an encouragement to me.

Been clinging to these words and am constantly singing them.

My favorite part of the song is at 2:45. So good and so true!
What an amazing God we serve.

“God is with us, and He will go before, He will never leave us, He will never leave us.
God is for us, He is has opened arms, He will never fail us, He will never fail us.
In His name we over come, for the Lord our God is able.”

Saturday Morning

What are you doing this Saturday morning?

I would absolutely love to have this be my morning…

Or be here on a weekend get-away with Jon…

But instead this is what my view is this morning…and all day today and tomorrow (and for another two weeks).

Two weeks until spring break is here and I. can. not. wait!!!! Jon should be coming home this next week as well which will be absolutely amazing! With so many different things on my mind it’s hard to focus in on school and not easily get distracted with things that are much more fun then studying for hours and hours. But for now I must finish strong!

office. me. desk. school books. reading. tea.
This is my Saturday!

Hope you all have a wonderful weekend!

Oh JCrew!

Oh JCrew…how I love your clothes but why do you have to be so expensive?

Love these tops…

And absolutely love these white pants!

And these ones…

Ok, I love all the colored pants that are in these days!

Wishing I could win some money and on a shopping spree! For now, I’ll just drool over these amazing clothes!
