Spring And A Few Favorites


I don't realize how much I miss something until it leaves for a while and reappears. That is what happened with spring. I claim that I don't mind the winter weather-- and most of the time I don't-- but once the slightest hint of spring appears I become anxious for it to make it's big debut. 


 We welcomed spring here with our wonderful cousins when they came up for a long weekend. (The pictures aren't wanting to upload at the moment, so I will have to post those separately).


Favorites right now...

This verse~ "Praise the LORD! For it is good to sing praises to our God; For it is pleasant, and praise is beautiful." Psalm 147:1

My semi-spring break this coming week. I enjoy school, but I am looking forward to the cut back in work this week. It is nice to have breaks every so often.
.

Morning walk and a little running. While I wouldn't say that exercising in the mornings is one of my favorite things, I have learned to appreciate them for what they are. I love the morning sunlight coming through the trees, horses across the street, and being outside in the cool air.
.

Pinterest. I'm discovering something that I love everyday.

This song. I love the twist that Audrey Assad gave this beautiful hymn.
.

Easter. It brings New Life- in Christ, and in the world around us.


See the land, her Easter keeping,
Rises as her Maker rose.
Seeds, so long in darkness sleeping,
Burst at last from winter snows.
Earth with heaven above rejoices... ~Charles Kingsley
