a Confession and an Amendment


(First things first, my gal pal Leah recently passed on her very own Liebster Blog awards, which I posted about here, and was kind enough to mention me! You should go check out her blog and listen to her awesome sauce playlist. )




Confession: 
I just really like these guys. They make me laugh. They get my humor. They love Jesus a lot and are humbling in their passion for him. They are pretty great road tripping pals. And. We share an equal music obsession. Also: they have to at least tolerate me back because, well, we're related ;) 






Amendment: 
I cannot believe that I forgot one of the bestest endings to the year/new beginnings that I have had in a long while, which should have landed at the end of my last post. Thanks to a not.so.subtle reminder, I am making an amendment to the recaps:





This holiday season was seriously one of the best! Not only were all of my sibs but one back in the States, but we also got to get together with the cousins for my grandma's 90th birthday party! It was good times. We rang in the new year by catching a little Sherlock Holmes action complete with festive mustaches ;) 


Alright, that's all. Carry on.

Brothers ARE some of the best inventions ever. Especially when they're younger, but then grow up taller than you, drive awesome cars, and scare uncouth or overly bold strangers off. Yes please.

Yay!! Now...now, it's complete! I'm jealous of all your traveling adventures! Jealous in a "I'm very happy for you" way. I miss all our Johnson reunions...thanksgivings always fall short these days.

The Best Day Ever

Holy smokes, it's been a year already! You know what they say, time flies when you're having fun! ;) Since I didn't really blog at all about the Best Day Ever that happened last year, I thought I would steal a Q&A idea from some of my favorite photographers . We both answered these questions separately, so it was fun to get together and read our answers and pick pictures. :) Note: all pictures in this post by the one and only Clara Williams Photography. What was the most memorable moment?  Liz:  So many moments to choose from! Here's a few that stand out:  My nephew Jared and new B.I.L, Joel, caught a baby rabbit and brought it to me while the girls and I were getting ready (it was sooooo soft!).  My original B.I.L, Jason, "You're a mess!" as he attempted to clean grass that had gotten stuck in my dress train when I was getting ready to walk down the aisle.  Praying with my dad and mom just before we went down

Five Minute Friday: After

Image
It's the week After Easter... Resurrection Sunday... celebration of New Life and Power over Death.  Last week was good.  I had some good reads last week: Love to the Uttermost , The Jesus Storybook Bible , Galatians , John , The Story of Hope .  I listened to a Resurrection playlist that was over 8 hours long so I don't think that I ever made it all the way through.  I had encouraging time with my church family here as we celebrated the Truth of the Gospel. And now, the Week After, I am feeling a little ...overwhelmed? let down?   Because After Easter I have only 3 weeks left of class.  And After Easter I only have one week left with my Moving Friends.  And After Easter I only have a month left with Friends who are here for school.  And After Easter life seems so.... well. anti climactic?  Which is all ridiculous because the whole beautiful thing about the week after the Resurrection is purpose and hope  Before it was me the hopeless and helpless los

[I've started this post about three times now, and I realize it's nothing new, but it's been on my mind for a while now. Sorry in advance for how disconnected it seems. You can bear with me or bail out now. The choice is up to you ;) ] It was just yesterday that I was sitting criss cross applesauce in the middle of my living room floor, multitasking. Some like to call it ADD. I prefer "multitasking." Music, social networking, reading a book, something on the TV, ticket shopping... all these distractions from what my mind was mulling over and over. A friend and I were walking the other night, just like old times, after the town had gone to sleep, when the stars were bright and the moon was full. The trees were dripping and the sidewalk was sloppy... it was such a reminiscent time of the past four-ish years of our lives that we have spent in this town. I know that when I think of summer nights, I'm going to think of this time of life. When it's war
