watching:I finished watching multiple seasons of the Vampire diaries while crafting. Since I have been working hard on all my store products. Since finishing that, I've been having several throwback moments and watching Dawson's creek haha! I don't usually watch that much TV, can you tell?

listening:I have been trying to listen to my new cds I got over Christmas, but lately the two songs I have had on repeat are A Thousand Years by Christina Perri and Hide Your Love Away by Anthem Lights. 

reading:The hubby and I have been reading Forgotten God by Francis Chan with our small group which has been such a great book to go through with others. To share thoughts and hear others perspectives on the topic. I've also been busy reading through some photography books to improve my skills there.

eating:Lots of fruits and veggies for us. Part of my #30daybuttkick has been to eat healthier as well. So more of our food budget is on those, when hungry I have been munching on those yummy healthy things instead of snacking on junk food (which I've actually stopped keeping in the house). Avocados as well are one of my favorites.

looking forward to:Summer. Definitely. Spring is teasing us here in the midwest right now with a beautiful sunny day with weather in the 40s. Gorgeous! And you can see all the buds appearing on the trees. Might I add we are all on winter storm watch too over the next few days. Sigh. But hopefully it will be the last snow of the season and then spring will appear. I'm hopeful anyway.

thinking about:Summer still. And volleyball tournaments, softball too. I can't wait to get back outside again. Playing in the sun, having more daylight hours. Still thinking about it. 

loving:The beautiful friendships I have found here in the blog world, new friendships I have found at church and the long lifetime friends who I have been able to talk to lately.  

How are you guys doing? Sorry I haven't been around much!

Once my stores are in full swing again, I hope to be back here more often.

You can find the Print Store on Etsy here.

Much Love,

(Sorry for the overexposure in some of the pictures. We were still working out the kinks with manual settings on the camera.) 

reading // Grace for the Good Girl by Emily Freeman. I will just say that it's my third time reading through this book, so it is definitely good. Its on my list of life-changing books in the last 12 months (there's only 3 of them).

'Anything we do to get life and identity outside of Christ is an idol, even service to Christ. He doesn't want my service. He wants me....don't (serve) from behind a martyr's mask of duty or self-righteous obligation.' 

{Emily Freeman, GFTGG p.65}


watching // I haven't been watching a lot of TV. Never been one for following many shows. Currently watching make it or break it as I signed up for Netflix trial 2 weeks ago =) Dreaming of gymnastics now and wishing had done it when I was little LOL.


anticipating  // News of where we are moving to. We are definitely moving house in about 3-4 weeks. Unsure if its an out-of-state move or local. Kind of exciting....and a little stressful =)


laughing about //Most of the conversations I have with this girl, this girl & this girl. And some of the hilarious things the kiddos in my life do. The 1 yr-old I watch has started waving goodbye to ppl...its like the most adorable thing ever. Also laughing about the dreams I'm having about heading to the Influence Conference (more on this later in the week). And dying laughing remember some serious kitchen dancing with ponytails......


listening to //Gold by Britt Nichole. This CD has been on repeat in my car. Seriously can't get enough of it! Like my favorite EVER!


eating // We have a packet of Oreos in the house. I think we have mice eating them though ;) Just in case A is reading =)


working on // Clearing out things we don't need before moving. Painting projects. Finishing castle for the Disney princesses with little girl I watch. Making handprint display for one of the mommies. Getting back into a workout routine. More items for my Etsy store (to help fund my way to Influence....again more on this later in the week).


wishing (Praying) // for a job offer for A. To win the giveaway for a free ticket to Influence. Yes, if you haven't yet heard about this conference, I will totally share in a later post. As you can tell, its on my mind A LOT.

 Inspired by Much Love, Illy to write today's post. And another attempt at a fashion post. These pics were from May 1st....seriously better than 3 months later though right? =)

Much Love,
