Mark & Hannah

My computer has been gone for the last few weeks being repaired, I am so thankful it is now back and was here for me to edit my pictures from the wedding in Kentucky we traveled to this past weekend. Its not very often that you get to go to a wedding where you know both the bride and the groom from high school. 

I spent a lot of time in High school with this sweet bride and her sisters as we all went to youth group together, they are just the sweetest and so fun to be with. I also went to school with the groom. 

So I was so thankful we were able to make it to their wedding. Still can't believe the incredible story the Lord has written here with this couple. Never would I have imagined The Lord would bring this guy I went to high school with into her life! But The Lord has so been at work in both their lives and you can just see the evidence in their love for him, others & each other!! There is no doubt that He brought these two together & that He is going to do amazing things through their lives together. I can't wait to see what He does......

The Lord truly writes some amazing love stories that bring Him glory!! 

P.S. More pictures from the last few months coming soon, now that my computer is back! yay! 

The Jumbled Suitcase Thoughts.

 This was packing for the Influence Conference almost a month ago.

I realise there are still more things to share from that impactful weekend.

So this is me grabbing coffee with you Saturday morning,  Praising God with you its the weekend.

Catching up on some final thoughts on the Influence conference.

Or more of a jumble of thoughts really.

I had a lot of thoughts about what to wear in the days leading up to the conference.

(As you can tell from the mess in the picture above)

I'm not sure why there was as much thought into my appearance as there was while packing.

Normally, I do take time to make sure I don't have food on my face before leaving the house and things.

But not usually quite so much attention to detail on my appearance.

I think honestly, I was terrified of what people were going to think of me before I went.

So I pulled together my five cutest outfits and packed those.

Still feeling insecure about myself.

So did the other two hundred girls I later found out from reading their posts.

Maybe there were a few who honestly didn't care.

About what others thought.

About what they looked like.

Our insecurities kept a lot of us from getting to know each other, as Kerrie wrote about HERE.

Until God met us that last night in a time of worship. Finally, I could see my sisters in the room.

Sisters in Christ. Where it didn't matter who had the most influence. We were all loved by God.

I echo Kerrie's thoughts on that evening.

The cute outfits were worn and thrown back in the suitcase by the end of the trip.
Forgotten about until it was time to do the laundry.
But the sweet friendships that were made.
The coffees shared among sweet friends.
Those remain, even today.
Blessed to call so many beautiful women, friend.

 These Happy Times // Taste and See 

Much Love,
