Hi everyone!
I just wanted to drop by and say hello! The weeks are passing me by and I don't know where my semester is going, quite honestly. I feel like I have a million things to accomplish and no time! But I wanted to say that I will try to update as much as I can. Because I do love this blog. Even though not many read it, I really like what I've done with it (with my preschool-level computer skillz).
However, with that said, I would like to know what I can do to improve my blog to make it neater, more cohesive, and more exciting! Are there any posts that you would like to see more or less of? Let me know!
Have a blessed week and I will be back soon!

Dreamin' Big!
Hey guys!
So I guess it’s the season to realize your dreams and I’ve been thinking a lot about starting an Etsy shop! I’ve got all my supplies and will be selling wrap bracelets like the ones pictured below… still not sure for how much but I’m thinking it’ll be around $10 - $15 depending on how long it takes me to make them and who’s interested I’ll let you know when it’s open so stay tuned!
I’m also naming the bracelets after some special people and if you can guess who they are, then I’ll give you a discount!

Hello, hello
I posted this to my Tumblr on Sunday... super belated post!
Hello again! I wanted to do another Sunday Summary since I have time before we head out to Youth Group.
1. I woke up kinda late. We don’t have to leave for church until 10 but I wanted to sleep in so badly! The cats were monsters last night/early this morning and kept waking me up. So irritating!
2. I tried grapefruit. I’m wanting to be healthy and I heard some awesome things about said fruit… if you want to read my thoughts on that, click here.
3. I got to see some people I haven’t see in a long time at church… and I finally feel like Matt and I are working our way into it. We are making friends and building relationships and I truly hope that after I graduate, God will find a way for us to say here because we love this church so much.
4. I ate Burger King for lunch. We ate out so much this week: Little Cesars, Chinese, and BK today. Oh and we’re getting pizza tonight. Help! I’m trying to be sensible and put away half of what I order. I only ate 1/2 my french fries and I tried to get as much mayo off the chicken sandwich as I could. Alas… Sundays are not meant to be deficit days.
5. I worked out. Did I mention that I hate plank-jacks and squat thrusts?
6. I made Earthquake cake. I found the recipe on Pinterest. Love it. It looks delicious. I hope the kiddos enjoy it.
That’s really all I have to report. I hope that you have a wonderful week. Feel free to share your Sunday Summary with me!

Sunday Summary
Hi everyone! I know I've been such a delinquent lately as far as blogging is concerned. My break got away from me and I spent it relaxing and healing from my wisdom teeth surgery. I saw that moremilk had done a Sunday Summary and you can read her's here. Needless to say, I was inspired... and I feel like I can be slightly more honest with this blog because none of my friends actually follow it... so I'll tell you what I'm up to.
1. Matt and I went to church for the first time in two weeks. Yes... we were naughty but the first weekend we missed was due to spending time with my Dad's side of the family Christmas Day and the second time we were traveling home post New Year's Eve. And didn't get up until 11:00. Anyway, it was nice to be back to our new home church and to see all of my friends from His House. Love it. Also, we have youth group tonight which is the first time Matt and I get to lead our kids. I'm nervous and excited.... so excited that I baked about 2-3 dozen chocolate chip cookies to bring. Yeah. That excited.
2. I have been working through the Ripped in 30 exercise program. When I say working through I mean that I'm still on week one and going strong. My eating habits are still messed up from Christmas holidays though, which is not satisfactory but I don't feel too guilty and I know that I'll get back on track soon.
3. Today I had a delicious Stake and Shake lunch of double patty melt and french fries. I also treated myself to a Coke Zero and I feel no shame. Very full, but no shame.
4. I've been feeling much more at peace with my body lately, as well. I'm forgiving myself for living it up with some not-so-healthy choices but I am trying to eat clean and exercise often. I do see now that the weight I'm at is healthy for my height so I'm really just trying to get stronger and more fit rather than shed pounds. So glamorous.
5. I finished reading Shutter Island. I thought that it was a great book. The movie was surprisingly true to the text which I was pleased about, however, the ending was different. Or my perception of the movie's ending was different to how the book ended. Either way, some questions were answered and I enjoyed the read. It took me about 2 and 1/2 days to finish. Not bad.
6. I saved myself $50 today! I a clicker that I needed for class from one of my former classmates and it saved me big time. Thank you.
I hope that you are all doing well and that your first week of 2012 was super! If you post a Sunday Summary, link it in the comments and I shall read it!
