{Happy Birthday}

Today I'm dedicating my blog to...

Birthday Blessings to my most wonderful favorite roommate Kelly Ervin!
Kelly turns 22 today and I can't believe I can't be with her on her day. She was the best roommate this year and we said goodbye only a few days ago as she graduated, (say what?? GRADUATED) and we traveled home for the summer.
Kelly does so much for everyone, she remembers friend's favorites and gets them for them, she is a great listener and an amazing advice giver, and she has the biggest heart for God! It was such an honor to lead Bible Studies this year with her and she will be missed so much by me and all who have been touched by her.




Even though finals week was crazy we decided that we couldn't let the last days go by without celebrating our dearest Kelly. Many of us couldn't make her graduation ceremony and wouldn't be near her during her Birthday either. So, we decided to throw her a  Happy Graduation/Birthday/We love Kelly Party!
Krystal, Katie, Dara and I quickly put together a surprise party and it was quite a success if I do say so myself. Here are the pictures to prove it!

Her reaction: So Surprised!



It's Party time!




She looooved our gift!






So here's to you Kelly on your special day!
I wish more than anything that I could be celebrating with you. I'm so proud of you and excited for all the new things that God is guiding you into, on your journey! 
Thanks for blessing us and today all the blessings go to you:)

Here's a little lovely song that I hope will put some hope & love & joy in your hearts:) By the way it's Day 9 I kept it simple today with my jewelry, which I usually do, but these rings I wear everyday.  The rose ring I found a few years back at a antique shop at the beach & it helps remind me that there is always beauty after pain or troubles. The heart ring my mom but my last year & it symbolizes to me how great my community, family, and God loves me and everyone around me cause God's love is what makes the world go round:) My blue topaz ring is my purity ring, true love will await me!

New eyes, new life.

First off I want to thank all of you who supported me financially and prayerfully. You all made a huge effort in getting me to summit and I can't thank you enough! Without you and Jesus of course, I wouldn't have had such an amazing and life changing experience.  If you couldn't already tell summit was amazing ! Not only did I gain amazing new relationships with my friends in IV(Intervarsity Christian Fellowship), but I gained an entire new perspective of how I look at the world and how I want to live in it. We studied in Acts and learned how to live in a community that eats together, prays together and does everything else together. We learned to live simply and realized that we actually can survive with the bare necessities and that we don't really need the things that we want. Who seriously needs to have every new material possession? If you think about it you will be able live without it, I promise you. We spent our days at work cites as we served the homele

Mixed feelings about the Superbowl

Image
This weekend one of my favorite and least favorite events is happening. All month I have been looking forward to February 2 but also completely dreading this day at the same time. You might be thinking sheesh girl you have some polar opposite emotions about this day! You are right, I totally do!  I am completely ecstatic that the seahawks will be playing in the superbowl!! It's only their second time ever at the superbowl and I am so proud of our NW team! My family has always been fans and well this time the seahawks must win! I even got inspired by a friend to make seahawk scarfs for my business, why not they are awesome! I definitely could have made much more business if I had only thought of that sooner, ha oh well!  BUT, I on the flipside my body is sick thinking about this game day because believe it or not it is the biggest incident of human trafficking in the U.S.  January is Human Trafficking awareness month and as an advocate I am asking for your prayers and intercession
