Pretty dresses, fun days, and life lessons!

Today was a really great day!

For one I was able to get up with the birds and a couple of my favorite people to sit in on the morning show. The days of ratings are over, so that only means one thing......I get to direct again. And boy did I direct today, 6 blocks!! Woohoo It felt really good to be back in that rollie chair, I mean I always have some help, but this right here people, is my passion. This is what I love to do!! God is good and always faithful.

It was also a good Sunday morning because my fiancé and I headed to Highlands for church. We have been going for about 3 months (maybe). I for one love it and I think Cor does too. The praise and worship is awesome and the sermons are always great. But another reason I love to go is because I get to see family. Okay, they aren't blood family, but the Mumpower/Stacy's might as well be. I have known them since I was little. They lived right down the road and I am so thankful that God has given us this opportunity to be together and worship together on Sundays!! And of course, there's the new addition of Kristy, but she fits in perfect!!

Today's sermon was simple, yet it made me kinda cringe in my seat! Pastor Allen talked about being more involved. I cringed because I always feel like on Sundays, all I want to do after church is sleep because I've already been up since about 4:30ish. But the cool thing about God, is he knows just how to invite you in and show you where you fit. In the little handout we get every Sunday, there was a sheet of paper telling us what the church needed help with. And what do you know, it said 'Camera Operator/Producer'. Now if that's not God....We actually know one of the guys who helps out with the production side of things and right after the service we went and talked to him about getting involved! I mean come on, if you're a broadcaster, you're always up to learn more about broadcasting! (or that's my thought process) I really hope we'll be able to help out!!

We also went to eat at Cracker Barrel, which is always good! Now heres a weird comment and I'll back it up with a story, but today I got a glimpse of what it would be like if we had children, and let me just tell you Cor will make a great dad! He's so funny and always entertaining! He's sitting beside Jaycee and Iz, playing peek-a-boo, and they're just giggling and playing along. It was seriously one of the funniest/sweetest things I've seen all week.

I thank God everyday for my fiancé', he makes life so enjoyable. He's my rock! I'm thankful that we get to spend Sunday mornings together with people we both love.

On a side note: Kristy taught us today that restaurants paint the inside of a ketchup bottle so they don't look super messy from the inside!

On other news: I finally picked out my bridesmaid dresses! I can't wait to see them all together. They are all a different color of blue and all a different type of dress and I wouldn't have it any other way! I'm so glad that's over with!!

There's still a lot more wedding plans to get done, but I know that God's got this!


So life lessons?
Never give up on a dream. Strive for it daily. Always ask questions, even if you think they're dumb. (mine usually are) Do whatever you have to, to achieve that dream.

Always love people, even if you do it in your own little way. ( I do it by picking on people, if I pick on you, I love you, if I don't.....well.....) haha :)

Enjoy every single moment. Spend time with people you love. And always remember God is on your side, he will never leave you, and he will always love you!

Oh, and no one is perfect. I fail God every single day of my life, but he always forgives! And that's the truly amazing part of it all!

"Find rest, of my soul, in God alone. My Hope comes from him" - Psalms 62:5
