*Quote Crazy*

Yes that's right. . . I went a "little" crazy picking out a lots of stuff to post here. I had fun finding everything I needed for this post. ;) I decided to just pick out all sorts of quotes, verses, and funnies that I thought might entertain y'all. I'm going to just categorize them in three different sections. Hope y'all enjoy and comment telling me what y'all think. =) 

. . . First, I will share with y'all quotes and scripture that really encouraged and comforted me. I found plenty more that I would love to share but then I believe that this would be the never ending quote post. ;) 

*Encouraging*

~Romans 12:12~

I absolutely love these quotes and scriptures. Whoever created them was quite creative! =)

~A prayer~

 

He is the only reason I enjoy living on this earth. To praise His great name and spread it for the world to see. 

~All I know is that I'm not home yet, this is not where I belong~

"We are confident, I say, and willing rather to be absent from the body, and to be present with the Lord." - 2 Corinthians 5:8

"But I say, walk by the Spirit, and you will not gratify the desires of the flesh." - Galatians 5:16

"And those who know your name put their trust in you, for you, O Lord, have not forsaken those who seek you." - Psalm 9:10

. . . Here, I am going to post some stuff pertaining to "future life partners" <3 Oh! just the thought makes me happy! To think one day I'll marry that one man that God picked out specifically for me. To fulfill the spot as a "Proverbs 31 woman"! Right now, I believe we single ladies and gents should be praying for our future spouses. Prayer that right now, the Lord will be molding that persons and our own life to be ready for marriage one day. And pray for that person's relationship with the Lord. Because I will not settle for anything less than for that person being more in love with God than he is me. For then I know he would have enough love for me as his wife. Hope y'all like these! <3

*Future Love*

~ Amen! Where your faith is..that's way more important than so many other things. ~ 

:') <3

Ok, this just made me smile!

"Love is patient, love is kind. It does not envy, it does not boast, it is not proud. It does not dishonor others, it is not self-seeking, it is not easily angered, it keeps no record of wrongs. Love does not delight in evil but rejoices with the truth. It always protects, always trusts, always hopes, always perseveres. Love never fails." - 1 Corinthians 13:4-8

^^^ Perfect definition of Love!! ^^^

<3 <3 <3

That's right. . We don't pick out our future partner. God does, and "He" will bring whoever He has chosen for us, together in His perfect timing. 

Just a few qualifications. ;P

*Funny*

Just a few more, I promise, but this time I thought I would bring a smile or laugh in. I do like to make people smile or laugh so. .  ;D

Ok, this is so wrong yet so funny. That's what the song meant. .? :/ ;) 

Is this not the truest thing? I love my mother so much including how wonderfully protective she is over her children. Lol. . 

hmm? ;)

Okay, I was told this too many times when I was a youngster. ;P

Very accurate

Mothers are the best!

Well, I hope y'all enjoyed viewing the gazillion quotes and such that I posted here. I pray all my dear friends and family have a great weekend! 

God bless y'all!

Just a few pictures. .

Olah to all my followers! :D I hope y'all are all having a great summer so far! The heats been taking a toll on a lot of us here, but we have also been getting storms every day ( including lightning and thunder ( which means no swimming. )   :(  . . . No swimming means I get a lot of stuff done in the house if we are not busy doing other stuff. Like schooling more, trying to keep things tidy, growing closer with my Lord in His word, and other things. :) So I'm just going to post some pictures of stuff going on lately ( that's if you haven't seen them on my instagram already ) . . . 

 Love to all my friends and family!!

I've been getting so see "my" little cousin a lot lately. Love her to bits!!

It's sushi time!

Gluten free diets makes you do weird things late at night. ;P

Started reading a new book. It's very good so far!

<3

Silly us

I love our old typewriter!

My bed room almost finished decorating 

And more of this girl! 

<3 My love for coffee <3

Posted this on Instagram. For those who didn't already know. . .  ;) 

~ This quote is so very true! When things happen in life that may not be what we planned, instead of questioning God why this is happening, we need to be thinking that God has bigger and better plans for us. We need only put our all of our trust in God. He's got everything under under control ~ 

And some photos I took of God's wonderful creation! 

Until next time. . . God bless!  And have a wonderful Week!

A Picture or Two

I love when Katey lets me take her camera and play with it a bit ;) .. getting to learn how to use it manually and take pictures. I also love when she critiques my work. It helps show me what I'm doing wrong and right. Therefore, my pictures will look better as time goes on! I love having my older sister teach me photography! 

A few weeks ago Katey let me do a mini photo shoot of her. If you follow her photography blog Here, you already saw them. ( isn't she so pretty?) . . I'm hoping she'll let me use her camera more often to snap some shots as I learn more. .  Here I took a photo or two... Not nearly as good as Katey's work but hope I'll get better as time goes on! 

~ Philippians 4:23 ~

^~  I can do all this through Him who gives me strength ~

Random Me. . .

Yes! Another "Random Me" post because so much has been going around here i thought pictures would be the best way to tell y'all what I've been up to. A lot of these pictures I had posted on Instagram but some of my followers don't have instgram so. . . :)

Here's some random pictures of my random life. :) ;) 

Summer sleep overs. . few words can describe them. Deliriously funny, fun, and interesting. ;)

Must come over again soon Ashley! =D

Balderdash.. very fun game

Summer days. . 

I love my siblings! 

Exercising with my sister. . oh yeah!

So I'm sure y'all all heard Katey's going to be going on a mission trip to Canada this August. Well the Church she is going to be going with had a fish fry. So Katey, Christie ( our good friend who is also going on the mission trip) and I were there helping earn money This Saturday. Along with others who are going to be going and others who just volunteered. ( All of there work was greatly appreciated ). So we did our part in trying to get people to come in and buy some of our (awesome) catfish by holding signs and doing all sorts of stuff to try to bring people in. And not to mention that most of the time we were outside it was raining. We might have made fools out of ourselves but it was for a good cause and we really didn't care what we looked like. And of coarse I had my trusty iPod to snap some photos of us throughout the whole time. I warn you, we weren't what you called pretty. Putting on makeup was a definite waste because by the time we had went in the rain and came back, most was all off and looked even worse. . But then again. It was for a very good cause and we had fun! :) let the pics begin!

Alright. So before ( and after ) the fish fry started, we got to eat some. yum! But Katey, wanting to be all good, brings oatmeal... you heard it right, "Oatmeal". . .to a fish fry! You can probably guess that she got teased the whole time we were all eating. I mean, who brings oatmeal to a fish fry. Only Katey. But that's the kind of stuff that makes her her. Without doing stuff like that, she just wouldn't be Katey! haha! ;)

Don't you love our Neon signs!?!

Break time! I promise we were on our feet 98% of the time ;)

Oh, our faces! ;). . At this point we were dreadfully tired, wet and looked, well horrid. haha ;) 

Lots of greasy food! 

 hehe

This is a little challenge I'm doing on my instagram. It's fun and interesting so far. 

Sucking tea with twirzzlers. . hey, you gotta do what you gotta do. no straws in the house. . plus if you guessed it right, it was Katey's idea. haha ;)

And here's a song that I thought I'd post. It's a fun song and had a really good tune. I also really like his voice!! hope you enjoy! :D

Well, I think I shall call it a quits for now! I hope everyone had a nice weekend, even though most of y'all got rained out. :( Pray y'all have a nice beginning of this week! Until next time, God bless!! :)
