praise you in this storm ....

I was sure by now,God, that You would have reached down and wiped our tears away, stepped in and saved the day. But once again, I say amen and it's still raining as the thunder rolls I barely hear You whisper through the rain, "I'm with you"and as Your mercy falls I raise my hands and praise the God who gives and takes away.......



I can't help but replay these words over & over in my head.
Things have been crazy lately... & I am trying to get my mind to run back to the same thing... but when the storm comes its so hard to see past it. Its hard to see sun.. & even though "i know" that God won't let me walk through anything that I can't make it through.. it just does not feel that way. I am overly blessed... God has done a great and mighty thing in mine and my familes lives. I just wish that I could see the light at the end of the tunnel here.

Happy Halloween =]

HAPPY HALLOWEEN!!!!!

I hope the everyone had a wonderful Halloween. I just love to dress up! I didn't do much dressing up... just one day.

I got to spend a wonderful weekend with some of my best friends & My Love. Although I was not feelings super great last week... I had a good time.
I cannot remember the last time that I laughed that much.. smiled so much & was feeling SO loved.

I also can't say how excited I was for this weekend to come.. & I cannot believe that it is already over. It went SO fast. I can't help but think about the next time i get to be with all four of these amazing people!

I also sit here and remember that It was only a few weeks ago that I was in Florida. I waited almost a year for that trip.. and I cannot believe that its over as well.

Man..I am sitting here now thinking ... "When can I get back to Florida && BRING MY BOYFRIEND!" .... & "When will i see all my ladies and lover again?" I don't have the answers ... well exact answers for when I will be doing both of these things. BUT it will HAPPEN... soon I hope .

While I was living in florida and at school I never thought that I would be where I am today. you know that I have found friends in these place.. and not alot.. but a few that have changed my life. There are people in florida like Danielle, Jeni, Rachel, Morgan & the girls who I met at school... Brit, Bri, and Lindsay.... who have completly changed everything in my life. I love those girls for that. I am thankful for them.

I cannot believe that It's already november... thanksgiving is just around the corner and then CHRISTMAS! I can't believe its that close ! I love this time of year. I have so much to be thankful for. The Lord has blessed my life more than I can even type in this blog. I would encourage you to think about all the things the Lord has blessed you with. This is a perfect time for reflection and praise to the Lord for all the great things he has done.

To end... a list of things I am Thankful for:

My Savior- For without him life would be nothing

My family- althought I may not always say it.

MyBoyfriend - Who love me with all his heart... I am forever his <3

My sister... who I love no matter what she thinks =]

My (current) home =] & the new ones to come
