Baby + Shower

This was one of the best weekends ever! Mainly because I got to celebrate my nephew-to-be with his mommy-to-be (SO weird to say!)... I got the wonderful privilege of throwing my sister a baby shower on Saturday, and I had SO much fun! It went so well, we had WAY too much food, and we packed her SUV full of gifts at the end of the day! It was a great, wonderful, emotional, humbling, exciting, anticipating-inducing day! Even though I had trouble moving on Sunday, I would do it again in a heartbeat.

I have a secret...

I watch this show:

And I have a love/hate relationship with it. But I actually really hate it most of the time... I hate how they portray Christians, I hate the cheesy acting, I hate that this girl hasn't told her mom that she's pregnant yet, I hate that two of the teens have been in a relationship for two weeks and already say "I love you"... The worst part may be all of the advertisements on ABC Family that compare it to Juno -- blasphemy! But it's kind of like a car wreck, you can't help but slow down and watch... I would tell you to start watching it, but I don't think I want you to hate something so much yet not be able to resist it...

Save me.

Tattoo

"Just like a tattoo

I'll always have you"

... Oh wait...

Sorry, that wasn't funny. But the tat is real. If you can figure out what it says, you get a cookie.

Oh Gosh

Oh gosh... That's all I can say... Oh gosh...

I am addicted. Like fully addicted. Having dreams about this show addicted. If you have not yet watched this season of The Bachelorette, ya need to. Go to abc.com right now and watch the episodes from this season. They have 'em all there. Seriously, go. Leave. Leave here right now.

Left Wanting

There is something Chris and I want so bad. It would be a wonderful, amazing adventure. I think it would make us really happy. Though it has not been deemed official as of yet, we are incredibly excited about this. But it is also something that would be extremely painful and difficult for me. It is something that excites me yet scares me a little. We want this, we really want this, yet we sort of don't want it... However, we cannot imagine going on much longer without it. We do not want to be left wanting and we are so scared it's not going to happen.

Lord, your grace falls over us. It washes us clean, it blesses us. Lord, we pray that we get this, we pray that You bless us with this thing. We trust you, we believe in your goodness and your divine will. Bless us O Lord.

Amen.


P.S. It's not a baby... Though, now that I am reading over it, it could really really be interpreted that way...Especially with the picture of the praying kid and all -- I just thought it was cute... But I promise that's not it.
