Blueberry Pickin' in Texas

You know, the more we explore east Texas, the more charming and lovable it becomes. There is a sweet simplicity here that I think deep down I yearn for. There is no importance placed on what you wear, where you live, how much money you have. I love that. People in east Texas are relational and hilarious.

I went Blueberry pickin' with some of my sweet friends and we had a blast! 






Just starting out... got a long way to go!

These make me smile!
Gettin' there!

Ta-da!! Full bucket!
7 pounds of blueberries!
full bucket for Ally too!

The quicks! All three of them :)

Father's Day



Many years I dread this day. A day to remember that my dad is gone. Throughout the past seven years the Lord has used this day to teach me about a Father who is greater than any other, a Father who is everlasting and a Father who will satisfy every need that I have. "He is a Father to the fatherless and a champion of widows, this is God in his holy dwelling"- Psalm 68:5 

Today, I am thankful beyond words for the eight years that the Lord gave me with my sweet daddy but I am eternally thankful for how the Lord has rescued me and adopted me as his child. Therefore, I go through today in joy and celebration!
