The Little Itty-Bitty Things

Being job-less sure does give a person time to reflect on what they do have. 

And to learn patience.

And faith.

And more patience.

But man do I ever not have patience.

Ya. Ugh.

Its been hard, but I do feel like there might be some things I'm supposed to learn.

Like patience (Get it yet? Ha!)

So I'm trying. And these are some little things I've appreciated along the way:

GORGEOUS graduation bouquet from Chris's parents!

The sweet little hummingbirds who so obligingly visit my feeder.

Strawberries....mmmmm.

Don't you just want to go out and get some for yourself?? 

(Go ahead. I'll wait.)

And lastly but definitely not leastly, let's not forget one of the smallest, yet most important things of all:

Faith.

"When we get discouraged we sometimes forget just how far our faith can take us."

A Thing I Made That is Not Usually Among the Things I Make

Yep.

I made that. Took the photo, created the design, bought the paper, printed it on the paper, cut it out...so totally a *go me* moment.

I'm quite proud.

I'm not walking (partly because I'm lazy...partly because I'm more of the I-just-spent-4-years-of-my-life-walking-my-feet-off-all-over-this-dang-campus-so-just-give-me-my-diploma-and-we'll-call-it-good type person) but I still wanted to let people know I made it through college. 

Another *go me*  moment.

Costa Rica & Refurbishing

This last weekend Chris & I got to do something very special...welcome Chris's best friend home from his mission! We were so excited to meet him at the airport...can you tell?

And when he finally arrived...surprise! He's now taller than Chris.

Hahah...sucka.


On a COMPLETELY different note... the dresser I was re-doing is FINISHED!
Finally.
Phew.
