Worldless Wednesday

Christmas Fun-- A little late!

Our niece's first Christmas was SO much fun! I'm not sure who loved it more... Us or her! Matt and I aren't quite ready for kids, but I can't imagine how incredible it is to have kids at Christmastime. It is something I am looking forward to for sure. :)

Hope everyone had an amazing holiday!

52 Weeks

Thanks to a couple of sweet friends (and Pinterest), I'm now participating in the 52 Bible verses in a year. I am two weeks behind, but did not want to miss this verse:

But by the grace of God, I am what I am.

-1 Corinthians 15:10

I took a red 5x7 frame I found at Target, a piece of cardstock to put in the frame, and some cute little 3-D butterfly stickers (to add a little "froof"), and put it all together. Now, I will just use a dry erase marker to change the verse each week. I will post a picture soon!!

Here's to 51 more beautiful verses.

Sunday Excitement

Tonight, I curled up in bed to finally watch Private Practice from the other night and ended up with a very pleasant surprise. At the very beginning of the show, a song was playing in the background-- I kept thinking "Wow this sounds familiar." Anybody that really knows me knows that I am a bit of a music junkie... It's almost ridiculous! I backed up to the beginning and listened to it again. When recognition hit me, you could have knocked me over with a feather... My sweet friend from college, David Ramirez's song "Fires" was on Private Practice! (You can read about him HERE). At first it was just the instrumental, but I still thought it was pretty dang cool. Then, in the very last 5 minutes of the show (you know, when all the sappy things happen), the entire song played, voice and all! CHECK IT OUT! :)

After a wonderful service at church and hearing David on PP, I'm feeling pretty dang good. Bring it on Monday!

My Music Monday

Love this.
I Heard the Bells by Mercy Me

You HAVE to listen to the words... Such a great song. :)

Welcome, Baby Adler.

My best friend, Lauren had her baby boy the Tuesday before Thanksgiving. Isn't he handsome? Thankfully, I was off for Thanksgiving break and was able to head to Little Rock as soon as I heard she was in labor. Unfortunately, the little guy was born THIRTY minutes before I got there! The good news is-- No one was allowed back until a while after I arrived, so I guess I didn't miss too much. I can't wait to head back up there to see him again. :)

Baby Fever... NAH!

I guess it's just because I'm at that age, but I feel like all of my friends are having or have babies. I am in my late 20's (not too far from 30-- EEK!), and babies are everywhere!

In just one week's time, I got to see some of my favorites!

1. My PRECIOUS PRECIOUS niece Luxiee: (I'm a baby bit partial!)

2. Madden, my college roommate Katie's little girl. She is SO cute!!!

3. Stella Jo-- My friend Faith's little girl. Just look at those eyes!!

4. MR. Tate Armstrong- My other college roommate's baby boy. We just met, but I am already crazy about the little fella!

AND, My BFF Lauren is due in only 5 days!!! I am so excited to take myself to Little Rock to meet the little guy. He is going to be SO handsome!

Yeah... And, I'm still not ready to start having kids. Thanks for asking, though. :)
