{yep, this was the best I could do today! hehe}
January has been really brilliant this year.
I've been savoring the days filled with so much rest and seeing friends,
and gearing up for school to start! {a first-day-of-school-picture coming soon! haha}
Not to mention that today was 85 degrees!
I know, I KNOW!
swoon…my heart is filled with sunshine!
but i'll stop with the weather talk now
so the rest of the nation doesn't ban me from the blogging world, hehe:)
So far in January,
we've made some tough decisions about a few ideas we had in the works.
Thought we may buy a house, and now we're feeling more at peace about not.
Thought we may go to Nepal in May to visit, but after much prayer, didn't feel peace about that either.
Thought about starting a photography business, and felt a lot of peace about that! {horay!}
Thought I might start school to get my MFT degree, and i'm so at peace about that I start the 23rd! {prayers appreciated}
Peace.
It's a good word for me right now, an even better feeling.
I wanted to give you guys a heads up as to where the blog is headed these next few months! I've been doing a lot of writing, which I love and adore, and is so life-giving to me! Here are a few series coming your way…
Travel series:
Yes…it is finally happening!
I'm launching this month long series SOON.
Topics covered include:
"How to pay for travel", "How to plan your trip", "Where to travel" etc.
I cannot wait to roll this one out:)
Transformation Series:
As requested from many readers,
I have a few posts coming up about how the Lord took my fragile anxious heart,
and brought me to a place of peace. Hallelujah, amen!
Give-Away:
I have a really fun/cute give-away set for Thursday…so stay turned!
Can't wait to give these sweet babies away!
Lastly, I will be notifying all the winners from the photography give-away tomorrow.
And i've picked quite a few winners, so get excited:)
