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.

My birthdy adventure!

Because it rained pretty much all day on my actual birthday, this past saturday we celebrated with my birthday adventure! Now, mk did a great job with my birthday presents but he knows how I adore adventures, so that was part of the gifts as well :)

We had a nice lie in, got ready, stopped at starbucks for my free drink and then, headed to L.A.

We've decided that there are gems in L.A. as long as you don't mind the craziness that you run into...i.e. man riding a bike wearing a bra, short skirt, and OBVIOUSLY no boxers, man yelling at you to "repent" while you're in line for food, being cut off...CONSTANTLY!

Here's our adventure: L.A. farmers market, the Griffith observatory, pink's hot dogs.

Change....

is happening all around and I'm trying to cope....I've never been great at this thing, change, but I thought I had gotten better over the years. Apparently not. So, I'm asking God for peace and understanding. I'm learning to grasp this time. And I'm finding encouragement in my husband....

I celebrated my birthday on Saturday....let's just say it was,um, interesting?! I'm thankful for friends, my siblings (and parents for their gift) and for my husband trying to learn who I am and how I function...

Sunny days!
