Boy.

i have the cutest nephew on the face of this planet. period. that is all i have to say.

Brother. Nephew.

every time i glance at my nephew i see my brother-in-law, eric, all over him. i see the joy that eric has in Jesus and i see how much he loves him. eric is just the most amazing man of God i have ever met. he loves Jesus with all of heart and that light that eric has shines through his son. everytime i am with them together i just love to look at the look that eric always seems to have on his face. it is a proud daddy look. it makes me smile. zechariah is the most blessed little boy i have ever met in my life. he has a dad who loves Jesus so much and will tell him about Him as he grows up. eric is on fire for Jesus and you can see that so easily. yes, everyone says that zechariah and eric look exactly alike... and don't get me wrong they do. but i always seem to look past that and see how alike they are in that they are both sons of God and eric has the privilidge to watch over and care for zechariah. i always see that in eric. he was made to be a dad, and was made to marry my sister. he was made to be the father of my nephew and raise him to love Jesus just as much as him. i honestly could go on forever about how incredible he is. but there is just one more thing to say. when i look into zechariahs eyes i see the love of God and the joy of his Savior Jesus. and when i look at eric.. i see the same thing and i know beyond a shadow of a doubt that this little boy recieved that look from his earthly and heavenly daddy.

It's been awhile

I has been a long time since i've blogged. I think im going to start doing this regularly again :)

Sister(s)

I have a sister. Her name is Emily. She is the most amazing woman of God I have ever met and I have known her my whole life... ha! Anyway, she encourages me is everything I do, say, and believe. When she's hurting she shows it, like anyone else. Yet in the midst of her hurting, there is praise. Unbelievable unending praise, and I love her so much, she is my sister and why yes... I am bragging!

I have 3 sisters. All of them different in everything that they do yet one thing is the same... their incredible faith in their father... creator... LOVER! I admire that in them so much. God is unfaithful and amazing. He's my love and he has given me an amazing family that I never take for granted.
Time after time I hear people tell me,"I hope you never take your family for granted!" I always reply with,"Never would I even think about taking my amazing family for granted (but I never mind bragging about them)!"

You Never Let Go!

So I realized that I haven't blogged in quite awhile, so last night I found something that I just had to blog about! I was home alone last night for most of the night, so I decided to put some music on. I then proceeded to click on iTunes and play my recently bought songs. I had bought a song for a video I made for chapel about our recent Biloxi mission trip called "Never Let Go" by David Crowder Band. It seemed like an awesome song at the time but I didn't really think about the words very much because I was getting frustrated with the video making process. So as I was listening to it last night and singing along, the song hit me in a way where I just fell silent and started crying. The words "You never let go, you never let go" are truly the most comforting words ever! Jesus is AWESOME!

God Will Lift Up Your Head!

Hi Welcome To Cold Stone!

Yep, I work at Cold Stone! With all the ups and downs of working there, there always seems to be a little child that comes in and wants "the blue ice cream" with chocolate ice cream and gummy bears. Seems gross to all of us but thats a child's imagination for ya! They like blue so they get blue, and they like chocolate so they get chocolate, oh and gummy bears are awesome, LETS MIX THEM ALL TOGETHER!!! YAY! Children at Cold Stone are my favorite!
