Songs that speak to my soul.

131. This woman. 
I love how sometimes songs sing your soul... An oldie but a goodie.

Vacation? Maybe not...

126. A mental vacation.
I was driving today and saw this couple zooming through the field on their little 4-wheeler... I pretended I was them... and experienced 30 seconds of bliss...
This is where I would like to run away to right now.
127. Beautiful friends.
I love my friends. Sometimes I forget I love them when we're all cranky... and sometimes, when we're all cranky, I'm even more thankful for them... I like that we can just be around each other.

128. Reminders.
I need lots of them these days. This week... Jesus reminded me how much he loves me through songs, friends, sleep, and his sustaining grace.

129. Butterflies and Blooms
Reminders that God is indeed working. And besides... So flipping proud of the girls... no one else can rock life like they do. They're a blessing to know.


130. Grades do not define me.
Dear Ethics prof, please understand that this semester.... Though an A in the class might get me some bling bling on my Heavenly Crown, I'd rather earn the bling in other ways....

He is Risen!!!!

121. He has risen indeed!!!
For reals... the best gift of all. Jesus has risen. He has overcome death... BAM. ROASTED! :)

122. Eggs.
Seriously... check this....
I wish I could say a 5 year old did them....

Quite the egg-celent bunch, eh? (Ba dum pshhhh)


123. Ducklings.
Presh. I know...
Willow and Stew...

124. Framily.
I love friends that have become family. Such a blessing. For real.

125. Rainy days=sweats and hats.
I can look like a slob and blame it on the weather, not my exhaustion. :-)

Just a few more hops until Easter... [get it, hops, like bunnies]. :)

117. Potato World
Before you judge, let me explain... My dear roommate, Steffi, pops up and says [in a very excited voice], "GUYS! Look at this! It's the world's gravitational pull... isn't it fascinating?!" {insert giggles here} "No... isn't it cool... it looks like a potato!!"
Reason # 45984205 why I love my roommates.

118. No ethics.
Love the prof, but could seriously do without this class... mostly because I only get about 1/4 of the lecture... at least that makes me 1/4 smarter than before the class, eh?

119. Easter baskets.
For real... what's more exciting than cheesy kid's Easter toys?!?!

120. Tomorrow is Friday [kind of].
I love that despite what America thinks about being biased to "religious holidays," Easter still gives us days off... woot woot....

Dancing in the Rain

113. Trips with friends. 
I love that I get to actually talk with friends sometimes.

114. SG girlies.
They're such precious gifts to my life. 

115. Roommates.
Seriously.... let me just recap the past 2 minutes:
Steffi: Erin, I have a game you can play.
Erin: What do you want me to get?
Steffi: It's called... army crawl to Steffi's phone, grab it, and army crawl back.
Erin: **army crawls across the floor*

Erin: Its like my Harry Potter song... walks singing.
Lolly: You are soooo weird.... **climbs into laundry basket**

Oh my flip... seriously. I don't know how my life could ever be complete without them.

116. This picture.
I want to dance in the rain, like this woman... except preferably not by myself. Life is so much better with people.

What a beautiful world.

112. I'm sitting in Panera, gamers in the background, a little boy walking by with a plateful of food, so proud that he can carry it by himself, a woman who is rambling about her life, and another sitting across the table doing homework. There is so much going on.... and I'm reminded... what a beautiful world we live in. Each person created uniquely, beautifully, and with a story.... Each created by a Master Artist. Wow. How incredible.

PS... I forgot to mention... Zorro just started playing on my iTunes while on shuffle. Oh how I love life...

BEAUUUTTYYY!

108. Homework Miracles
Things get done. They always do. I should have learned that by now. :)


109. Grandma
I love getting to the age when I can develop deep, meaningful relationships with my grandma. It's beautiful... and it blesses me so much!

110. Sweet notes.
Reminders that God indeed uses me, despite myself.

111. Beautiful pink flowers.
Seriously, the pink azaleas that sit outside my window remind me that God loves me. The sit there singing of joy and beauty and they make my heart sing. BAH!
