what a man

Today I am feeling exceptionally thankful for this man. He loves me so very well and always always always brings things back to the Gospel. He puts rest to my crazy mind and brings so much peace and clarity to my heart. Thank goodness I married a man who absolutely possesses much of what I GREATLY lack. I thank God for creating Nate exactly the way He did and for being so kind in letting me be the one to carry his name.

Husbands are a wonderful thing. If you have one, be thankful for him.

glitter anyone?

this looks SO FUN

I love her

This woman is SO PRECIOUS TO ME! Today we got to chat and enjoy our snow day together via skype. I love our friendship so much. She is so open and straight up about her life and relationship with God. She is committed and is so GENUINE. I just enjoy her SO MUCH!

So, heres to you my sweet Jocelyn Berry. I am so thankful for you.

Morning Muffins

Another snow day here in Belleville. Well, I should say ICE DAY.

Although it is a happy day, I am sad that my sweet husband couldn't be home

with me too. So, I am enjoying these delicious muffins, reading, cleaning and doing

absolutely nothing. A glorious day indeed.

Snowy Day

Today I spent at home because it was SNOW DAY!! One of the many perks of working at a school! I love LOVE my work schedule.

Our house has been so DISGUSTING since Christmas break. Life has been CRAZY so I was thankful for today to get things organized. I am starting to understand myself better and how I function. I NEEEEEED structure, organization and cleanliness or else I am unproductive and stressed. And, unfortunately, organization is not something that comes naturally to me. So I spent the day organizing. And it feels WONDERFUL.

Got everything done except Christmas stuff... I need Nate's help with that : )

Glorious and Clean

Random: Nate and I got our power bill for last month and it was twice as much as it usually is. So we are trying to dress warm and save $$$$. I was folding laundry today and caught a glimpse of myself in the mirror. hahahahhahahahaaa. I wish it was a better picture and you could see the ridiculous slippers I was wearing. NO shame.

Although I like my phone I got a little sad today because I did not take ONE PICTURE of Christmas with our real camera!!! All I have are phone pictures... BUT I will attempt to do a Christmas update soooon.

Random lunch and SNOWWW

Woke up to this. BEAUTIFUL!!

We need groceries

That's all for now.

love this

This would look just PERFECT in our home.

When Nate and I were dating we would always say

"Being with you feels like home." (Sappy... I know)

So when I saw this I immediately fell in love.

Tonight we are spending the evening at home decorating our tree!!

My heart feels so full and thankful. I am continuously being reminded

of how faithful Jesus is. And so patient. And He really does LOVE US... more than we will ever know.

Such a simple truth. But how huge the impact it has on us when we really start to realize it and BELIEVE it.
