Just a little Fashion Show

So this weekend went to the Women's Expo in the cities. My mom who owns two boutiques had a booth of all of her clothes and accessories. It was great seeing all the different vendors and meeting a bunch of people. They also had a fashion show featuring local boutiques and businesses {my mom being one of them} It was such a great opportunity for her to promote the store. Here are a few pictures of the fashion show below...{none of which are of my mom's clothes but of others}







Plans are stressful can I just say that...why can't I just have a map of my life and bam, that's it done follow the yellow brick road right?
No, God is funny that way!
Patiently waiting on my Lord for guidance of my life, future and boy...
I still am in the situation where I am not sure if me and him should be together, he has a lot of future planning to do and I am fully supportive but man is it a challenge ha!

Praying hard, staying focused and relying solely on Him!

Enjoy your week and happy Monday {chin up}

Get out of my yard

Hello there, so this weekend was full of...driving! I drove with my roommate to pick her sister up in Rochester, drove to Chetek for a women's overnight. I am sick and tired of driving people {no more, I tell you} here are some snapshots for ya...







Yea random sign about pregnant and hugging, don't judge us. Oh and the above pasta dish was supposed to be like Noodles' Penne Rosa let me just say it was {amazing}

Women's overnight was much needed we discussed relationships, boundaries, bonding, burdens and idolatry. It was great to hang out with old friends and to really relax and spend some time with God. I have a lot of emotions but God gave them to me for a reason so it is up to me to deal with them and react the right way. When we know someone struggling we cannot take on their burdens but we must help them or direct them to scripture and God. It was great to confess and pray with the ladies around me and to be their for them.

Galatians 6
Brothers and sisters, if someone is caught in a sin, you who live by the Spirit should restore that person gently. But watch yourselves, or you also may be tempted. Carry each other’s burdens, and in this way you will fulfill the law of Christ. If anyone thinks they are something when they are not, they deceive themselves. Each one should test their own actions. Then they can take pride in themselves alone, without comparing themselves to someone else, for each one should carry their own load. Nevertheless, the one who receives instruction in the word should share all good things with their instructor.

Enjoy your week and keep your chin up little ones

Also if you are confused about the title, it is just like saying to someone {who is awkwardly up in your space} get out of my grill! hahah sorry I have boundry issues...dealing with it.

slow to speak...

Now why can't I listen to my own advice, or hey how about God's word...

James 1:19-20
Take note of this: Everyone should be quick to listen, slow to speak and slow to become angry, for man's anger does not bring about the righteous life that God desires.


Why is it so hard to be patient, waiting upon the Lord? Please someone tell me! I recently told my friend "My life/love life is like a bad car accident, you shouldn't watch but you want to and its just not a good scenario" why am I so messed up, and bi-polar? Anyone, any takers, doctor do you have any prescriptions, advice?

Half of my heart is wanting to be single, growing in her faith staying strong and independent, while the other is like hey yea lets hang out all the time, talk about our feelings and mushy stuff.

Lord help me understand what I should do/need to do!

Why can't a guy NOT like me and I NOT like anyone!? Does this really happen, and why can't I experience this now!

Why can't I be that gentle hearted, slow to anger patient loving person? Please tell me Why can't I...Oh I know I am me, God made me this big headed, crazed lady for a reason right? All I want is a guy who can challenge me, take my craziness, get in my weirdo mobile and understand me and all my ways. Is it so hard for someone to be completely honest, break down barriers and be themselves? How do you truly know you like someone, why because they are funny, nice...blah blah blah what about the deep things, why can't just once a guy say to me, " you know what you have such a passion for the Lord, a beautiful heart and all that jazz...?" Is it me, I don't know, I know I am in a little funk but hey who isn't? I am always growing with the Lord wherever I am at, I can never stop growing...

Why can't I be good with words...p.s I am realizing that my Love Language is Words of Affirmation, you know why, I like when people reassure me that they like me, what to be with me... I need words or I am all screwed up...that simple right?

That's what I thought...I know that guy is out there, God is working up some crazy plan that I will never know/understand. But hey this is why I love Him!

Please be praying for me and patience, God's timing, and to be slow to anger! What can I say it's the Italian in me, I love that passion haha!

They call me..Ms. Sniffles

I dislike being sick...with a passion!!! I am not myself, I am weak, cranky and not a fun little lady I tell ya. {Thank you to all of my friends for putting up with me} I always just feel like I am in a haze, especially while I am doing homework. Enough about me and my complaining, how are you doing?

The weekend I must say was quiet interesting...to say the least. Feelings/ "emotions" came to the table, that's all I am saying about me and boy. I must add that I really am enjoying my life of singleness, I am strong where I am at and continually want to grow in this stage. I'm praying a lot for what the future will hold and for God's plans.

"Consider it pure joy, my brothers and sisters,whenever you face trials of many kinds, because you know that the testing of your faith produces perseverance. Let perseverance finish its work so that you may be mature and complete, not lacking anything. If any of you lacks wisdom, you should ask God, who gives generously to all without finding fault, and it will be given to you. But when you ask, you must believe and not doubt, because the one who doubts is like a wave of the sea, blown and tossed by the wind." James 1

Lord you know me best, test me lord, for I have faith in you

I pray for health on everyone, blessings!

P.S we had our Men's appreciation for CRU and here are some pictures for your pure entertainment.

Creation

 And all of creation sing with me now
lift up your voice
and lay your burdens down
and all of creation sing with me now
fill up the heavens let his glory resound
...and every knee will bow

What an amazing song, by Mercyme, it truly makes me want to be in heaven right this second praising our Lord and Saviour.

I pray you are all doing well and enjoying your Wednesday!

Here are a few pictures to make you smile {hopefully}
