Yes I am Friends with Supermodels...

So four of my friends went to San Francisco, California last week and I was looking at their pictures and so completely in awe of their beauty! They are extremely beautiful girls! But the best part is that they are not only outwardly beautiful but have such great personalities and they really love the Lord! They are such amazing girls and they have been such a blessing to me these past two years! I stole photos from Eva and Tera so hopefully they don't mind but I just had to share their beauty with the world! :)

In order to make this experience truly magical I very much encourage you to play this music before you look at the photos!

Eva, Julia, Tera, and Alisha

 

I Absolutely love their curly hair! It's so wild and fun!

Ali is going to be an amazing wife some day!

Supermodels right?!

They're Fierce!

So in a nutshell I ADORE these girls and I am so glad that they had so much fun on their vacation! I wish I could have been there but I suppose I will have to survive living vicariously through them!

I've also been listening to the song "Land Down Under" by Men at Work and it has made me super nostalgic! I want to return to Australia so badly!!! Maybe someday... Lord willing... I will be able to return to the land that is oh so wonderful and near and dear to my heart!

Oh yes me in my high school years... These are such old photos!

Oh and I am coveting this camera right now:

This picture is from Amazon.com

The Canon Rebel XS 10.1 MP (Drool). Unfortunately it is way out of my price range but a girl can dream right? :)

I am a fan of Julia Childs! I watched "Julie and Julia" the movie and I really liked it! Now I want to buy Julia childs cookbook and learn how to cook French food! I might actually do it too! How cool would that be?!

I don't know how well I would fare with really complex cooking but how cool would that be just to try?! Maybe I will make a night out of it once a week or something! Can anyone say "learning how to cook nights!"?

How Deep the Father's Love for Us

Today in  church we sang this song and it really spoke to me! I love the lyrics they are so powerful!

How deep the Father's love for us,
How vast beyond all measure
That He should give His only Son
To make a wretch His treasure

How great the pain of searing loss,
The Father turns His face away
As wounds which mar the chosen One,
Bring many sons to glory

Behold the Man upon a cross,
My sin upon His shoulders
Ashamed I hear my mocing voice,
Call out among the scoffers

It was my sin that helf Him there
Until it was accomplished
His dying breath has brought me life
I knoww that it is finished

I will not boast in anything
No gifts, no power, no wisdom
But I will boast inJesus Christ
His death and resurrection

Why should I gain from His reward?
I cannot give an answer
But this I know with all my heart
His wounds have paid my ransom

An Extremely Odd Blessing

At the very end of the work day on friday I was getting antsy and just wanted to go home. I only had thirty minutes left of work but it seemed to be dragging on like no other! I was watering the plants which was a nice change from my normal weeding routine but still the time was passing so slowly. I had started to become negative which I have been trying very hard not to do this summer! As I got more and more antsy I asked the Lord to help me with my attitutde and help me get through the final few minutes of my work day!

The Lord definitely answered my prayer, but in the strangest way...

A gnome!

I was watering by the pond at my work and I saw something in the bushes. When I went to take a closer look I found this little guy staring back at me. It made me chuckle because it was so random and then after that I was extremely happy! The Lord changed my attitude in an instant with a small gnome. Is that weird? Hahaha!

Has the Lord ever blessed you in an extremely odd way?
