+you've got to get up every morning with a smile on your face And show the world all the love in your heart

Local businesses, you make me smile. Munchers Bakery is our go-to bakery for the halls I oversee. They just had their sole cake decorator leave and they hired a new gal. It's crazy to think how long and how much history some places have. Beautiful dedication and so much depth.

+You bow to none, but heavens will

Last year I spent Easter alone and it was such a happy celebration but such lonely circumstances. This year, I spent it in the cozy comfort of a second family and my Pastor's home. I felt so loved and I felt so much like rejoicing. It was a beautiful day. He is Risen.

+if you find yourself on my side of town, I'd pray that you'd come to my door

Coffee and conversation with friends. Realizing that deep bonds can be formed, even if you're only away for 18 months. Realizing the depth of love and connection that God gifts us with if we're open and willing.

+the sun a shout, the breeze a sigh

For as hard as it can be some weeks, my men's hall has made me more proud than I can imagine. If this is anything what raising children is like (highs and lows) then I am getting ready!

+i came here with a load, but it feels so much lighter, since I met you

+you, you've spoken truth over my life

Breakfast is the key to my heart. So add in a most wonderful lady friend and the most wonderful locale? You've got a morning made in HEAVEN. 

"Something brought you to my mind today
I thought about the funny ways you make me laugh
And yet I feel like it's okay to cry with you
Something about just being with you
When I leave I feel like I've been near God
And that's the way it ought to be.."

+why should the fire die?



What timing! I cannot make today about anything other than the life-changing moment that gave me the best crinkly eyed smile of all time. I am engaged to this fabulous man!

About Me

My photo
I am a recent grad-school grad, who enjoys spending my time learning to make the perfect cup of coffee, running as many miles as my legs will carry me on, learning music that I'm skeptical about but that Devon says I'll love, and loving on my sweet friends - near and afar.
