01/28/15 | West Virginia

We got to see some snow on Monday! Our church took a trip up to West Virginia to go snow tubing. Unfortunately,our bus broke down and only half of us got to tube. The rest of us(including me)sat on the bus at a garage for two hours,until we were able to get a rental van. Thankfully,we still were able to get up to the lodge,even if we couldn't tube. It was still fun to see all of that beautiful snow! This may be all the snow we see,since I don't think we are going to get any here in N.C. :( Tired of winter or not,a little snow would be fantastic! 

Despite circumstances,my heart is thankful that we all made it safe and sound. God is so so good y'all.

08/01/14 | To camping we go

We had a weekend camping trip planned. The truck was packed,the firewood chopped,and the bed rolls wrapped and ready to go. We were blessed to get our camp up and ready,and then here came the rain! Honestly,I thought it would be just a quick shower! God let it stop so that we could cook our supper and sit around the fire to dry a while. Unfortunately,it rained all night,but we had a good time and made some nice memories. We came home early this morning and spent the day warm and snugly in the house. I was able to get some nice  digital pictures before the rain and I used up a whole roll of film on my Nikon N60! Super excited to get them developed and share! I want to shoot with film more,
I just know very little about it!

Have a great night!

Deep breathing

///Sometimes you have to take a step back and remember who you are. Remember where you're going,what your striving for,and who you love. Take some deep breathes. Stop comparing yourself to every other person you see. They are not you,and you are not them. You have your own path to walk,and your own story to write. Be happy in your own skin. Because the only person you can ever be happy being,is you.     ~Unknown///
