like father like daughter

Day 27 - A picture of yourself and a family member.

Me and my daddy!

Kindness

Day 26 - A picture of something that means a lot to you.

Random or not-so random acts of kindness is something that means a lot to me. A person with a compassionate, selfless heart for others is really important. Whenever I see something like that, it makes me happy and joyful knowing there are people out there who make the world a better place. 

Hey girl heyy

Welcome back! I've been pretty busy lately which means slacking on blog posts! Hurray!

Day 25 - A picture of your day.

haha not exactly my day, but I thought it was a good picture. I just have a lot to do, already did some grocery shopping but I have lots of laundry to do and get started on studying for a test and 2 papers due next week. 

I've got the whole world. . .

Day 24 - A picture of something you wish you could change.

Who wouldn't want to change the world? It may seem like a vast thing to do, but for once I would love to turn on the news (because I love watching the news) and watch all the good things happening instead of the shocking and depressing. I don't care if this sounds cheesy, but I truly want to make the world a better place. I am sick of people having to live in fear of what natural disaster or shooting spree will happen next. I guess for now we can only wait for Jesus to return! (Thanks Jay)


If everyone cared and nobody cried
If everyone loved and nobody lied
If everyone shared and swallowed their pride
Then we'd see the day when nobody died
~
So we keep waiting
Waiting on the world to change

Where your boyfriend at??

Day 17 - A picture of something that has made a huge impact on your life recently.

His name is Isaac Thomas Owen. 

He is my boyfriend.

 Sunday will be our 3 month anniversary. I love everything about him. I love how I can totally be myself around him and we can goof off together. I love how we can have spiritual conversations and learn about where God is working in our lives. I've never been called beautiful everyday, I've never gotten flowers for no reason, I've never experienced what a godly, respectful man is like until now. He treats me better than I deserve and I've never been happier. What a blessing! Right now he's in Texas for Air Force basic training and I miss him more than I ever thought I could miss anyone. I can't wait to see what our future has in store.
 He is my prince and I am his princess <3

Love the skin you're in

All you need is love

Day 12 - A picture of something you love.

I love the beach.
I love how peaceful it is. I can sit and reflect on life, pray, appreciate God's creation and go on a walk with someone I love.

Don't hate cause you ain't!

Day 11 - A picture of something you hate.

Nightmares.

 I hate them because of how real they seem. Also, it seems like lately I've been experiencing them more than usual. I had a problem with nightmares as a kid. They are awful and scary and make me fearful. 

2011

Happy new year!
I'm hopeful and anxious for 2011.
I spent last week in Spokane for a Campus Crusade for Christ conference which was wonderful! I learned so much and grew in my faith.

Time to brag about my perfect boyfriend- He got me a dolphin pillow pet, a new bible with my name on it (that made me cry), roses, a new water bottle because I lost mine, and bible highlighters. Since he left for basic training this morning he gave me a stack of cards, one to read every week. If that wasn't cute enough, he also gave his friend Andy enough money to buy me flowers for every month anniversary until he comes back. Can you say awwwww? I've never experienced this kind of love, this kind of selflessness. Isaac truly cares about me, truly loves me and is willing to show it every way possible. I love him and I will miss him way too much the next 4 months.
