Weekly Gratitude

i found this idea over at our friend's site, Mandee
it's good to evaluate each day to see how the Lord has blessed you.
every good thing comes from HIM. even the small things.

1. i am thankful for our family and friends who made my sweet husband's birthday so special for him. we celebrated his 26th year THREE TIMES. :)

2. for the amazing sales Kaela made at work for Sea lillie
(yes we are selling at a retail location in Jupiter, FL!)

3. the beautiful 8 senior girls of whom i've had the honor of co-leading for the past 4+ years.they are graduating this upcoming week and wednesday will be our last time all together.
it has been the most sweet blessing to see them grow and mature.

4. much needed girl time with my two favorites, elizabeth & melissa.
they are my 1/2  marathon running buddies. we went and saw water for elephants.
so good.

5. spending time with a college BFF, ashley, in ft. lauderdale.
we had a sleepover and did the 5K on A1A to benefit 

6. a relaxing evening with my hubby to wind down the long week.
& i made this masterpiece:
via skinnytaste.com
accompanied by some red wine and pretzel m&ms 
(BOGO at publix! first time trying the pretzel ones. verdict: delicious).


it was certainly a fun filled and productive week.
what are you thankful for?
please share with us!
happy sunday xo

An ode to my mom

This is an ode to the most beautiful woman I know... my mom.

She has been there for me through thick and thin, sacrificing like crazy... all for love.
She is always thinking of others,
and won't sleep until she knows that you have everything you need.

She's very silly and can always make me laugh- even when I don't want to.
Her smile is beautiful.

Me and my mom

She's extremely supportive, giving, patient, thoughtful, and kind. She's my #1 Sea Lillie fan. She always tells me I'm beautiful, even when I first wake up in the morning and haven't washed my face yet. Her kisses and hugs are sweet. She is love.

Isn't she pretty? My mom and little sister, Kortney

And most importantly, I learn the love of Jesus through my mom's love
for me, her family, her friends, and complete strangers.
She loves the Lord and has a pure hunger to know Him more.
If I could be anything like my mother, I would be honored.
She is my best friend. I love you Mom. :)
