On your mark, get set, Summer!

I feel like my summer vacation truly started today. I started to feel a dreaded feeling in my soul...a little bit of boredom that I get when I finally have a chance to slow down and do nothing. :) So, I decided to fix that immediately. I exercised, went to the library to renew my library card and even checked out 3 books (if you know me, you know I've basically read every good book at our library, so I prefer to place holds on any book that I desire). Then I went to Publix. I also made a whole bunch of lists. I made organization lists and project lists. You name it, I now have a list for it. Ha!

I was happy to have a little bit of sweet summertime reading in my house.



I was also happy to see this little box arrive in the mail.



The thing that made me happiest of all was fixing dinner for some friends in our Sunday School class that just had a baby. I was listening to Passion White Flag and was inspired to pray for the sweet family and their new baby boy as I prepared their meal. I decided that anytime I bring someone a meal I will pray for them the entire time I'm fixing it.







Now, we're just enjoying this rainy night. Matt and Blakely are napping and I'm going to tackle my first project on my "things to organize list", our bathroom drawers. Our cabinets are neat, but our drawers are another story. Anybody else so excited about Dance Moms coming on tonight?

And just because this is a very random post. I took this picture of Matt a few weeks ago as he was drawing lines for my class field day. He said it made him feel like a coach. It made me miss Friday Night Lights. I may just have to re-watch the entire series this summer.

Put your hope in the Lord. Travel steadily along his path.
