community garden

There is an amazing community garden behind my house. I see pieces of it over the top of my fence but decided to explore around it the other day with my camera. Nature and God's creation in color is SO beautiful. Love it.

off to my favorite place with my family to celebrate the long weekend and commemorate summer like we do every year. How do you celebrate the end of this season?

blondie

I guess I never showed you all pictures of my hair... I sort of feel like you can't get a good view of it unless you walk around my whole head :) but here is a little shot of it. She did highlights underneath my hair so that my roots wouldn't have to be touched up and then she used a weave technique so that the bottom of my hair would look light brown, the blonde mixed with my natural hair color creates a different color. I love it. I could go for some more I think but it was a great start and so exciting!!

ONLY hope

Jesus is the only thing we can actually hope in. Everything else may fade, may leave us, may go away, but the LOVE of Christ will never.

If we don't have hope, what do we have? If we don't have Jesus we don't have hope.

Where is your trust in? Something that will fade or something that will last forever?

What are you all up to this weekend? This week I started coaching volleyball for the first time ever. I am the assistant to the JV coach which happens to be my sister in law :) We have had daily double tryouts all week long, which means I'm at the gym from 8 am-4 pm . I am having a blast though. I have never served so many volleyballs in my life and let's just say my shoulders are ready for a break this weekend!!
