I was asked by someone for an update. I think they were desiring house photos. But when I have something else on my brain I have to go with that or else I'll forget:)
I loved Karen & Erin's top 10 favorite things of the moment so much that I decided to write my own.
Because I am such an analytical person by design I am constantly thinking of things I enjoy and am so thankful for. Can't wait to share w/all of you. Here goes.
1)My Church- Yes I can say that w/sincerity. God is doing a new work at HMC. The people are walking in humility and transparency. And for that I am thankful and excited.
2)Women's ministry and the desire for growth there. Loving it. Healed Relationships. God's restoration that he alone could bring.
3)Cammilla- She is talking up a storm right now and at that cute stage. Where you want to eat up everything and struggle punishing them because they are so cute!
4)FALL- I love the fall. As everyone who knows me can attest, fall is my very favorite time of year. Then spring, then summer, winter makes it by a hair onto my list.
Fall deserves it's very own post like others have written! Maybe I'll include my whole list (if I have time) But this leads me to #5
5)Pumpkin Spice Lattes! Can't beat em! LOVE starbucks version of the drink.
6)The smells all around me right now. I am a very intuned to my senses. Enjoying my life through all my senses makes me feel alive. Smells of fall. Yummy!
Crisp air, Apple cider w/cinnamon brewing, Pumkin spice Lattes, Early fires, Apple pie, trees, hay.... The common denominator? These smells evoke good memories thus bringing me comfort.
7)FALL PARTIES! Yes I am shouting. BETH & The S Family can throw the bombest fall parties around! Hay rides, clay pigeon shoots, eating in a decorted barn, delicious food, and Tons of people! LOVE it. Beth threw one for me the year I was due w/Abbey. I had 3 weeks to go till my due date and had been tremendously homesick and physically sick. It lifted my spirits. I had never experienced anything like it before. Yes on my very first hay ride w/our college church group we went through the McDonalds drive through:)
8)Sweaters, Sweater Wraps, Jeans, Fancy dress up slacks, Sweet fall trenches, Boots, and Big Bags. Loving fall attire. It hides my undieted body in a way that summer can't.:)
9)My new HOME. Is it a surpise God blessed me w/ a move in date smack dab in the middle of my favorite month??
10)My marriage. Seriously, I am not attempting to be gooey or sappy. But at this moment in time we are experiencing another growth spurt. And I couldn't be more thankful!!! Lovin Mike!
Peace out Blog reada's
W/love,
Des
