counting my blessings // December + January



  • skating and "celebrating" Dylan's 17th birthday in Walmart :)
  • Chinese food
  • seeing sweet friends from PA
  • finding an adorable elephant maxi skirt from Goodwill
  • finals going well
  • trail riding
  • sister chats with Paige at bedtime
  • peppermint mochas
  • Micah sleeping better
  • trying out a new iced coffee recipe that fills an entire quart
  • skating
  • celebrating the new year with friends
  • learning how to play spike ball
  • reading through 1st and 2nd Corinthians 
  • climbing at the Zenith Climbing Center
  • animal science class
  • waking up to a gorgeous sunrise ... this is a story worth sharing: I had stayed up until past 3 in the morning doing homework and I had my alarm set for 7:15 because I had college that morning. I was fully expecting to feel horrible after only 3 something hours of sleep. But my alarm went off, I woke up, crawled out of bed, peeked through my blinds, and saw the most gorgeous sunrise I've seen in awhile. I headed for my coat and boots and went right outside to see it. It had me awake, in a good mood, and already feeling so blessed even though I hadn't got much sleep. >>Thank you Lord!
