Things I'm lovin' right now!


Quarter Slices at Great Harvest
(Everywhere else its free... but in Rexburg they charge the students 25 cents!) I highly recommend the Pumpkin Chocolate Chip! Hmmm!

Crunchy Leaves!
Fall is definitely my favorite time of year! I love the changing colors and brisk weather! I missed last fall since I was in Jerusalem. My mother knew how much I missed the leaves so she sent me a Ziploc FULL of them. Isn't she the best!
Frozen Grapes!
So I had never heard of anyone freezing grapes before this semester... but I LOVE it! It helps kick my popsicle addiction!


The Book: The Last Lecture

My grandmother recommended this book to me. It's a true story about a professor who got diagnosed with cancer and only has a few months to live. He is invited to give a "last lecture" and this is his story of his life and lessons learned. I really enjoyed it. If I was dying what would I give my "last lecture" on?

An Affair to Remember

I love this movie! It's a classic! It's got to be The Chick of all other Chick Flicks! Our apartment watched it the other day. The songs have been stuck in my head ever since. I just love this movie!

Our apartment Gratitude Wall!

We've been having so much fun with our "What a blessing" wall! For every blessing we can think of we make a dot and put it up on the wall! It's a great reminder everyday of the things that we're grateful for and what really make us happy. It's fabulous!

Beauty: Teton Valley

Something I've been thinking about...

beau·ty
–noun, plural -ties.

The quality present in a thing or person that gives intense pleasure or deep satisfaction to the mind, whether arising from sensory manifestations (as shape, color, sound, etc.), a meaningful design or pattern, or something else (as a personality in which high spiritual qualities are manifest).

These are some pictures I took this weekend while thinking about beauty:

Just for me

I got a voicemail from a favorite aunt of mine (one of my favorites!) the other day. I was walking through the parking lot when I was listening to it, and afterwards I had to sit down and cry. :) This is the quote she gave me...
Now remember:
You are braver than you believe.
You are stronger than you seem.
And you are smarter than you think."
-Christopher Robin
to Winnie the Pooh


Just remember that!
