friends are cool.

some of our sweet friends from auburn came through dallas on their journey to denver. 

meet chris. he was on david's younglife team in auburn and one of his best buddies.

we love him.

chris also has a sister, jenna. she is moving to denver to work at a homeless shelter and ya know, make the world a better place. 

we had a little bbq with our community group. i cannot even begin to explain how much we'll miss these peeps.

good news.

"the good news for those who enjoy God's being God is that He enjoys them. He delights in those who hope in His immeasurable power." 

psalm 147:10-11

His delight is not in the strength of the horse,

nor His pleasure in the legs of a man;

but the Lord takes pleasure in those who fear Him,

in those who hope in His steadfast love.

there are so many times when we just have to rest in the fact that God is God and we are not. that brings me great joy and should take a huge burden off knowing that we don't have to know it all or understand Him completely. He's God. we're not.

days off.

i am sitting in a starbucks at 10 am...on a school day. something feels so rebellious about being gone from school on a weekday. i love it.

we are in houston for an apartment life interview. apartment life is a program for apartment communities. "cares" teams live in an apt complex and plan events for the residents to engage with each other. the purpose of the team is to build a community within a complex.

so we're interviewing to do it in houston and hoping that the Lord will orchestrate where we should go. we know that he will. 

wish us luck. 

then and now.

then. (4 weeks ago)

now. 

can't believe how much he's grown. 

i am obsessed over sully. i am worried what a baby might be like. yikes.

12.

12 days til pool time. sleeping in. wearing no makeup because it sweats off too fast. rompers. nights on a patio. road trips with my man. movie marathons.

summer.

 i can do it!

dance your shoes off.

i just saw this video for the first time this morning. it will make your heart sing.

i don't know how to make it bigger. sorry. i am a teacher. this is not my strong point.

the video was done by second baptist church in houston (woop!). we visited this church and it has a lot of potential to become a church home for us. there are 25,000 people that go there. 25,000. for us alabama folk, that's a lot.

moms.

i'd just like to say that i am very thankful for these women:

( i know david is too)

we have pretty awesome grandmas too. 

love you ALL very much.
