They say, “Beware the Ides of March!” But you know what? Today has been pretty rad, as has the rest of the week. I’m very thankful for a lot of things in my life right now, and I’m so excited to share them. So here’s this week’s list!
THINGS THAT MADE ME SMILE THIS WEEK:
- My new (to me) SLR camera! I named her Ashley, in homage to her former owner. Some very important photos (our engagement photos!) were taken with that camera back when Ashley was just a wee photography student. My how things have changed — she’s only gotten more awesome!
- A Saturday morning coffee date with Ashley, since she totally owed me coffee. (We had a bet on the gender of Durrenbaby, and I won! Well. I guess we all won, because I’m having a baby. And how can you lose?)
- The weather! It’s definitely spring time here in Florida and I am oh so very thankful for that. We didn’t have much of a winter this year either, which also makes me happy!
- Going for walks.
- Rereading The Hunger Games to get amped for the midnight premiere!
- Mentor-y type emails with Beth. She’s a smart lady, y’all. When I grow up, I hope I’m as awesome as her (and have kids that are as awesome as her kids.)
- Pretty lip gloss.
- Trace‘s goodbye party. I’m so excited for him, even though it’s going to be tough around here without him…
- Solidarity in sobriety!
- Kyle’s sweet fondant skills.
- Funfetti cake!
- Balsamic vinaigrette.
- Random accidental coffee dates with my husband where we talk about deep stuff.
- Seeing my buddy Sydney play music. She’s so talented! So proud of that little booger.
- Making music and worshiping with good friends!
- Sending my dear friends Evan and Suzanne out into ministry.
- EPIC NAPTIME.
- Silly conversations at T.G.I. Friday’s.
- Being able to drop some background vocals on one of Evan’s jingles!
- Thrugs. And thrug life.
- Lunch with Chelsea and other newsies on Tuesday, lunch with Sarah at Panera (and scoring a sort-of-kind-of free Mary Kay compact that I get to fill with all kinds of goodies later) on Wednesday, and lunch with my hubs today. I’m a lucky girl!
- Running into Tara at Crepevine! SO GOOD!
- Free food: Bagel Bagel, Panera, and then Krispy Kreme. Y’all, I am the free food QUEEN this week.
- My silly bible study.
- An Idiot Abroad. What the heck, how did I not know about this awesome show before?
- Being prayed for. Like truly, honestly, for-reals-style prayed for.
- Getting to have dinner tonight with the bestie, her boyfriend, her little brother, and his girlfriend! WHAT UP!
- Josh, your dreams have now become a reality. You are on TILT!
- Flowers in my hair.
- Psalm 91.
- Life!
What an awesome week! What do you love?
What a beautiful pregnant lady you are!
What a great gift that camera is – so many beautiful shots of my grandbaby are going to be cherished as a result!
Tell your friend Sydney she sings like an angel!
I love your list!
Love you and Dan! 😉
I made the list!!! My life = complete. Thanks again to both you and Dan for coming out to the show…it meant a lot to me 🙂
