A Bridal Shower for a Lovely Lady!

Brooxie Jones is getting married!!! In just a few, short days she will become a Rafie!! I have had the honor of getting to know Brooxie and she has surprised me with her kindness, outlook on life and wisdom. Not only will we be sister-in-laws, we will be best great friends that love, support, uplift and care for one another. I cannot wait for what is in store for our friendship, but I am even more excited for what is in store for she and Seth!

Life

Sometimes things feel great other times they don't. One minute I can be singing in the car even if the radio is off and the next minute I can be quiet as a mouse, pondering too much! Feelings are trival and I am learning to not give in to each and every emotion that comes my way. I have the power to control how I feel. I have the power to choose what mood I want to be in. Tonight, although I feel tired, annoyed and easily agitated I will choose to be joyful and to go to bed with heart full of gratitude. Gratitude for my family, for salvation, for my job, for my dog and so many more blessings in my life!

Weekend Snippets

Here's a few photos from my much needed chill weekend. 

I took the morning to sleep in and when I woke up I made breakfast for the family. The Sunday morning breakfast consisted of pumpkin pancakes and roasted butter and brown sugar apples and bannas. I must say it felt very "fallish". 

Later that day Andy and I did some work on the house in Helotes. Correction... Andy did some work and I just followed him around keeping him company and semi distracting him.

Instead of going out for lunch I made us a snack. Apples and cheese with a fall-flavored Bluemoon. Deeeelicciouss!

 Then I ended my weekend with a birthday dinner for Austin! Happy Birthday!!!!
