The good life.

I had a fun filled weekend!

Busy and good.

Relaxing and refreshing.

First, I got my nose pierced.

I sparkle now.

Then I did a little sewing with my cat, Dante'.

Went the Carnival with friends, Jon and Joan.

Since Joan was pregnant we weren't able to ride the Dragon Wagon (meant for 5 year olds)

A picture sufficed.

Went swimming with my Woobie.

He's cute.

Fireworks with my kindred, Rebecca, and her family. Look at little Ogden holding on . SOOO cute!

 Finished with fireworks! 

Can I just say how I am blessed?!  Of course, during the 4th of July holiday I tend to be super grateful for my freedom, for those who have fought for freedom, and I feel abundantly blessed, more than usual. But lately, I have been blessed with relationships flourishing. Developing deep roots with people that causes an amazingly beautiful blossom of friendship to occur. The deeper the roots, the prettier the flower. And I have quite the bouquet forming.

God is always so good to me, in every season. 

This past year has been a year of ups and downs. But God is faithful and has bolstered me with family and friends who love on me in amazing ways, surround me in  prayers and bring joy and depth to my life.

Life isn't perfect but it sure is good.

And I am thankful.

God bless my blanks

I've been a tadge busy this week! So glad that it's the holiday weekend.

God bless America and YOU :)

1.  This weekend for The 4th of July I'll be       nursing my husband back to life. He has a hurt back and is a bit immobile. Hopefully I will get to experience some "culture" at our town's carnival. Church and hopefully some fun with friends.

2.  Fireworks are      make me ooh and ahh still  .

3.  Nothing says summer like       Tropical Snow and toes in the grass. Bike rides and evening walks .Cookouts and trips to the pool between vacations to the beach  .

4.  My favorite summer memory is     working camp Agape and meeting this really interesting and funny guy who I fell in love with and married 2 years later  .

5.  My favorite thing about Summer is     its a weird tie between vacationing and breezy warm nights where I walk and talk with my husband .

6.  Summer in a word is    heaven . Even on the sweltering days  .

7.  If I could choose to have summer or winter year round I'd pick      well now I'd say summer but ask me again in a few weeks when it's 100+ out there I'll say winter     .
