Maid of Honor!

I finally actually asked Amy to be my Maid of Honor (instead of thinking about it and almost asking her and talking about it many times) so Steven and I bought her another baby gift (on a whim) and i 'bribed' her to be it. I have to say i'm really really excited about it and hope she is too!

Of course, Bill and Steven had to be funny with it too. They're pretty goofy sometimes!

Thanks Amy for agreeing to the craziness of being the Maid of Honor!

Action Figures Anyone?


Steven and I went to the Toy and Action Figure Museum in Paul's Valley and while we weren't impressed before we went in, the inside was pretty insane! We felt a little awkward during lunch though (see the above picture) because we didn't exactly feel like we fit into the town? It was kinda weird, but we ate at a small Italian place that was really good--oddly enough, they had really good cinnamon rolls!
We really enjoyed "riding" the batmobile--they had a room for batman action figures alone and it was really cool!

Rafael made out of legos--this really made me want to go to Legoland and see all the figures they have there!
This wall was covered in action figures that were boxed and the stage was covered in opened action figures--it was probably 25 feet long at least! They had it set up to look like a grown-man's bedroom.



Lucky I'm In Love with my Best Friend!


Steven and I went out Friday Night to dinner and a movie and between the two we went to the park and took some random pictures together. Here are pictures from the night!

New Job!

Steven got a "real world" job now that he's graduated, with good pay/insurance/close to here and we are so thrilled! We went out to celebrate to Shogun--it was a great night!
God is good and does answer prayers....this is definitely something that we have been praying about for awhile and we're both so thankful!!

Also, on a side note--I got a 92 on my Abnormal Psychology paper and can't be more thrilled! What a wonderful day it was!!

Recommendation!


I am currently reading this book and love it thus far--thanks to my aunt for lending it to me. I love that I am able to fit "reading for fun" into my life again thanks to not having to read for class all the time :) I highly recommend it!

Excited for the future!

Finals are finally over and I am more than satisfied with my grades. I thought I would get my first C ever in my college career, but you'll be glad to know that I pulled a B and was thrilled to see that B in the slot for "Abnormal Psychology." It was a joyous moment for sure.

With my interview that I had last week at the Infant Crisis Center for the college fundraising board, I got the call today to let me know that i'll get the chance to be a part of that and I am so excited! I know it'll be a blessing to be a part of this group, and to have the opportunity so I pray God helps me bless the lives of others through my work there. For those of you who aren't familiar with what the ICC is, you should definitely look it up--it's a great organization and you can always come volunteer with me!

I would like to share one of my favorite Psalms--It's one i'm hoping to teach my children and help them to remember. It's given me confidence and assurance in times of doubt!

Keep me safe, O God,
for in you I take refuge.

2 I said to the LORD, "You are my Lord;
apart from you I have no good thing."

3 As for the saints who are in the land,
they are the glorious ones in whom is all my delight.

4 The sorrows of those will increase
who run after other gods.
I will not pour out their libations of blood
or take up their names on my lips.

5 LORD, you have assigned me my portion and my cup;
you have made my lot secure.

6 The boundary lines have fallen for me in pleasant places;
surely I have a delightful inheritance.

7 I will praise the LORD, who counsels me;
even at night my heart instructs me.

8 I have set the LORD always before me.
Because he is at my right hand,
I will not be shaken.

9 Therefore my heart is glad and my tongue rejoices;
my body also will rest secure,

10 because you will not abandon me to the grave,
nor will you let your Holy One see decay.

11 You have made known to me the path of life;
you will fill me with joy in your presence,
with eternal pleasures at your right hand.
-Psalm 16-

I hope you are able to get something out of that.
Great things are in store for the future and I can't wait to see the things that God is going to do in my life!

Have a great weekend!!
