The is a test...

No really! 

Do you ever really, truly, feel like you're being tested?! I wish I didn't have to be all sketch with the details, but I must at this time....I TOTALLY feel like I'm being tested.

I'm trying to have a new take on this and try to realize "why" God might be allowing this....Memo to safe, grab a notebook for this!

"This is only a test".....

PS. just over a week and my beloved and I will have been married a year!

Oh the memories

And, I love my family with all my heart! It was such a wonderful week! I can't believe everyone is back to their lives and busy as usual. 

I can't express enough how much YOU need to NOT take for grated the blessing of family! You never know what could separate you; jobs, death, distance, family growing,etc. So cherish the amazing and wonderful time you have with family.

I'm not gonna lie, it wasn't all peachy keen the whole time...organizing 11 people and making sure everyone is good, is hard stuff. Especially after spending a little bit of time a part BUT we got there in the end!

Thanks fam for a wonderful time!

A new prayer...

My Mk and I are praying and thinking through some new things in our life and marriage. My heart feels full.

The weekend brought much to our plate and joy to our hearts.

This just might be a preview of what's to come ;) Listen and maybe you'll understand?! 

Song of goodness

Weeks!

I love weeks that go by because they're good...not because you're too busy or not present enough to enjoy life or take a breathe. 

This week was good; catching up with a GREAT friend, spending time cooking good things, seeing my little sis and eating sushi, (as always) spending time with my love, AND, booking tickets to go spend time with MY family!!!!!!!!

Good...that's this week....

Before/After

I like diy with the best of them! I finally got around to finish these pallet shelves after my dear sweet man drove around with them in the bed of his truck for about 4 months (or more?!) and then graciously cut them for me! I forgot to take an original "before" shot, so this one will have to do!

So exciting!

You know how a few weeks ago I helped a friend (Whit) out with a photoshoot she did with megan? (post) Well...the photoshoot is featured on Style me pretty today! It's an exciting thing for all of us! My Etsy shop is mentioned so that's well, you guessed it, EXCITING! Happy days :) Head on over and leave some love.
