“I was blessed with a birth and a death, and I guess I just want some say in between.”

Blessed. Simply put, that's how I am feeling.

God has been sooo good to my family, my church, my school years, let's make this my entire life! I seem to always have the best luck, finish what I start, and Life gets better and better every day I am on this earth. I know that God is writing out every single part of my life story and I couldn't hand the pen over to anyone more suitable.

God deserves the glory for all of these things and just to let you in, these are the things I am most thankful for.

Relationship with my Jesus!

I enjoy so many freedoms because of the sacrifice of so many soldiers. Thank you soldiers, for loving us enough to do a job that we can't/won't do. :) God bless each one of you!

The opportunity to attend Ole Miss, the Harvard of the South.

( Yes, Colonel Reb is still my mascot!)

*Renovations of our house.

School is also a blessing right now. I am relieved to be in God's will with my career choice. I believe this wholeheartedly because I have made A's and B's in every class and that is a sign that I am where I need to be. So excited about working with children for the rest of my life.

This video is what I had to watch and document on my final and it touch my life. I had tears in my eyes the entire time, and it showed me how excited I am to work with special needs students/adults in my life's work.

The only disability in life is a bad attitude. ~Scott Hamilton

God is good. Yes he is. Just felt like sharing.

On another note, we had our Mentor group reunion Monday night at Mrs. S's house. Her baby Rourke is precious. I had fun putting his Ole Miss stuff on him. Love this sweet family! :)

Rourke, You're family is very special to me. Just know that we prayed for your mama to have a precious baby like you! So glad God decided to grant that wish!

Party at Mcgee's was a fun time! :)

Intercession this summer. Not so fun. It'll be over soon.

See how Blessed I am!

See ya'll later!

Life is amusing.

Similarities create friendship's while differences hold them together.

Life. It's a beautiful thing.

I love:

Friends

.. get my drift?

Honestly, I just need to clear my mind and list everything that I love and have to be thankful for.

God is our best friend, always and even after a bad day he's still there to love us up. Praise him!

Funny thing is. I often forget, neglect, and have nothing to do with him during the day. I'm really trying to work on this because it makes me sick.

School is almost over and I couldn't be more ready. This semester has been draining. It'll be so worth it in another year and a half though. :)

Hope your weeks have been lovely! Have a great weekend.

Not sure what is in store for me.

This little ball of fur can make me feel better!

Praise the Lord, that week is over!

Last week was a doozie!


It was terrible, stressful, and tiring. 3:30 mornings and that is absolutely no fun!


Anyway.. Papers are turned in, school is almost over. For now anyway. Because yours truly is doing 3 classes this summer. Ugh!!





My frand Caitlyn and I went to Mi Pueblo friday night for a relaxing, catch up on your week meal.





Saturday, Michelle and I went to Double Decker and have a great time. The music was pretty good. Had fun! :)

Sorry the picture is from Facebook!

Today we voted at church to get a church bus and I think it is going to be a great ministry for us. God is good! :)

Finals are coming up and I am ready for them to be D-O-N-E!

Oh, BTW Ole Miss just swept LSU! :) Hotty Toddy!

Almost over.

Life is rolling on. Wow. I can't believe I am almost an adult. How scary is that?

This week has been crazy! I just can't seem to catch up, get ahead, must less get sleep. Oh well. One day I'll look back and miss these days. I hear all the time, "These are the best years of your life!" How true it is! I love these days but I am ready for life without homework.

Interesting points of the week:

* Went to observation @ NMRC! Love it. Autism is being introduced to me and man, it is intense. So glad I get to learn about it first hand.

*I went to the BSU Commissioning service tuesday night, and God revealed he had something big for me. Not sure yet what that is. Summer Missions next summer, maybe?

Made the decision, finally to stick with Elementary Education/Special Ed endorsement(concentration). I really feel a calling to Special Ed so that is probably what I will end up doing. :)

God has big plans. I get overwhelmed, scared, and frustrated with myself over all of the decisions. Why can't I just hang them over, which is exactly what he is waiting on anyway! God take the pen away from me, and write my story. :)

* Saw this quote on a FB page and it literally described what I was going through. Love those little reminders.

When His sovereign plan and your earthly plan collide a decision must be made. Who is in charge of this journey?

so true. huh?!

Hope your week has been great.

Red/Blue game tomorrow, Dexter McCluster in the Grove, and Goodbye Colonel Reb. Busy day.

HOTTY TODDY!

Crazy, Fun life!

I can never find time to blog as much as i would love to. To my blog, I'm sorry.

I have been crazy, busy with school and it has recently hit me that I am extremely ready to be out of school. I know that I have the whole rest of my life to be an adult but I'm just stressed and over this. College has been, by far, the best years of MY LIFE!

NMRC is still somewhere that I enjoy going every week and I'm sad that it's almost over. God has definetely shown me this year that I can't always be prepared and stuck in my ways because now I am debating whether to stay in Elementary Education or change my major to strictly Special Education. I enjoy working with those children/adults so much more but I do not want to be stuck in something that I can't get out of. God will provide and he always answers prayers.

This is my sweet class...

We are redoing- and I mean completely redoing our house. I don't love going home on the weekends and being in the mess, but man it is going to be lovely when it is done. My mama will be greatful to have the house that she always dreamed of. :)

I got my altima fixed and got to drive a small, blue car for 3 days. I called it the blue dolphin and was not used to it at all but it sure got me to where I wanted to go.

We had a great Easter. Mom came over and we had a relaxing day just eating and catching up with her. Here's just a sweet picture of her..

I've signed a lease for The Exchange for next year, pretty much know I am doing my student teaching at Lafayette Elementary School, and I am trying to make all a's and b's to finish the year out. Life is hectic but I'm doing it. God is good and he will help me through. :)

Hopefully blogging will be done more frequently from now on.
Peace!

A long time coming.

I have not written a new blog in almost a month. Can you tell I'm wayyy busy! School is going, and is killing me at the moment. I just have a million things on my mind and that is not a good feeling. Let me recap what has happened this month.

My car got hit.. AGAIN! ugh. Will be fixed soon.

I went to the beach during Spring Break. We had a blast! :)

We just had to do a jumping picture!

Caitlyn.. You are a mess!

School, Shopping, random road trips, homework, Church, eating out, and many other fun memories have occured.

I'm back. Another blog soon!

Exhausted, beyond belief.

McCarty sale. You were worth it, big time. But, I'm so glad you are only once a year!

We waited in line for about 10 hours and I mean it was intense....

(I am super excited about my purchases though.)

I met some really nice people and we had a great time "tailgating".

I am hoping to get lots of sleep tonight. That would be great.

My sweet "Harper" has not seen her mama in forever and I am getting here tomorrow to come to oxford. She is going to be so glad to see me!

Wedding Weekend is coming up. I have 2 Saturday, and I am very excited.

Spring Break. 6 days. Let the countdown begin!
