changes.

there have a lot of changes in my life over the last few weeks.


-i moved into my apartment. been here a few days and have almost everything unpacked. woo hoo. i am really happy where i am at and the place i have. it has been a long time coming and happy it is finally here.

-boyfriend and i are no longer together. this has been a rough transition to make. but i have been praying a lot for strength. it's amazing how God comforts you and gives you what you need when you hit a rough patch in life. the week it happened, the band at church played an awesome new song. "go" by hillsong united. i have an awesome church. great people. great pastors. great sermons. overall, just an awesome place to be.

-mom is still out of work on medical leave. but she goes back to work one week from tomorrow. and she is improving every day :)


since i have moved out, my latest thing is couponing :) i know, i know. 25 years old and i am a couponer. but hey, it saves me money! so last night i spent some time looking at different websites and printing numerous coupons. extreme couponing here i come.


my 26th birthday (yikes) is this Saturday. do i have anything planned? nope, not at all. hopefully something will come up this week.


happy monday and start to a new week.

m.i.a.

i have been m.i.a. for quite some time. it has been a crazy few weeks/months. the most recent is that my mom was in the hospital. it was a long five days of visiting and camping out in her hospital room, but she has been home for almost 2 weeks and is improving with each new day.


i did some organizing of my mass amount of scrapbooking stuff. i am not done at all, but way closer. so i'm excited to get that all done and get working on some old pictures.


below are a few pictures from the last little while.

this guy celebrated his 7th birthday. crazy to think i started babysitting him when he was just a few months old.


Easter egg hunt for the kids at church. we had one or two (more like 2,000) eggs. all which were stuffed by yours truly and some great friends.
