Almost 10 Years

Each year with Wes has been an adventure, a blessing, something to be infinitely grateful for. I’m so happy to have our little family, our lovely home and our beautiful life together brawl stars herunterladen windows. We celebrate 10 years of marriage on May 22 and I have listened to this song lately as a connection to this special milestone.

“North” by Sleeping at Last
we will call this place our home,
the dirt in which our roots may grow download youtube videos with handy.
though the storms will push and pull,
we will call this place our home.

we’ll tell our stories on these walls.
every year, measure how tall icy tower kostenlos downloaden.
and just like a work of art,
we’ll tell our stories on these walls.

let the years we’re here be kind, be kind.
let our hearts, like doors, open wide, open wide download news.
settle our bones like wood over time, over time.
give us bread, give us salt, give us wine.

a little broken, a little new.
we are the impact and the glue fotos automatischen whatsapp iphone.
capable of more than we know,
we call this fixer upper home.

with each year, our color fades.
slowly, our paint chips away.
but we will find the strength
and the nerve it takes
to repaint and repaint and repaint every day download browser t online for free.

let the years we’re here be kind, be kind.
let our hearts, like doors, open wide, open wide.
settle our bones like wood over time, over time spotify herunterladen qualität.
give us bread, give us salt, give us wine.
let the years we’re here be kind, be kind.
let our hearts, like doors, open wide, open wide gta 5 herunterladen kostenlos pc.
settle our bones like wood over time, over time.
give us bread, give us salt, give us wine.
give us bread, give us salt, give us wine ältere pc spiele kostenlosen.

smaller than dust on this map
lies the greatest thing we have:
the dirt in which our roots may grow
and the right to call it home quiz planet herunterladen.

Personal Lent Traditions

Though our church as a whole doesn’t participate in giving up vices as part of the Easter season, over the past few years I’ve made the personal choice to forgo two things herunterladen.

First, I gave up fast food. Without going into detail, there is a pretty specific reason I give this up. It’s a practice in discipline for me to commit to the 40 days without “drive-thrus.”

The other thing I go without is iPhone games cewe photobook software for free. I spend HOURS each week tapping away at my screen. Hours that are relaxing and enjoyable, but of all the things I do that are not adding anything to my life, this is the biggest one rechnung herunterladen. I’ve read at least 10 books during this year’s 40 days, a testament to how much time I could be playing Pocket Mine or Candy Crush.

The odd thing about giving these things up, is I miss them… EVERY DAY youtube ganze playlist downloaden mp4! It’s not like when I hear some people say, “After the first few days without sugar (or whatever), I don’t even miss it anymore.” I really want to eat a chicken biscuit private videos from youtube. I really want to play games on my phone.

All this to say, I don’t do these things to make myself a better person. I can’t do that, only my Savior can unfallbericht downloaden. I do this a a tiny, small, itty-bitty sacrifice to remind myself of just how much he gave for me. The things I give up hurt; they have value in my life download motivation letter template. They are personal things, often not understood by someone else. I am okay with that, because it’s not about someone else understanding. It’s about the reminder that my amazing, beautiful life and everything in it is a gift bestowed upon me by someone who loves me more than I can even imagine free mp3 download van youtube.

If you need to find me Saturday, Apr. 19 (after Lent is officially over), I’ll be at Chick-fil-A, with breakfast in one hand and my iPhone in the other herunterladen.

Masters is Coming | Be Ready

I’ve had a few people ask how my husband and I prepare for our Masters renters. Below are the basics. The most important thing is to start prepping MONTHS ahead of time herunterladen. The last few days before check-in are stressful enough.

First, we compile a list of home improvement tasks that lead up to the renters arrival about 2 months beforehand and share that list via and app called Wunderlist gif geburtstag herunterladen.

Then, we actually write down a list that we sit down and compile together that covers linens, cleaning, drawer and closet prep. It’s important to go area-by-area, including hallways, linen closets, storerooms, etc herunterladen. Even if the area is small, it helps to keep from overlooking something like making sure your guest doesn’t get avalanched by that “out of sight, out of mind” area of your home quicktime mac free download.

A few things to remember above and beyond really cleaning your home well:

  1. Take down the personal photos that aren’t hung on walls steuererklärung luzern herunterladen. When you go to vacation rentals, there is usually a lack of personal items.
  2. Remove clothes from a few drawers and a section of the closet in each room pokemon go op ipad. Mark those drawers and closet doors by tying a ribbon on the handle. Let your renters know that is the signal for areas of use. (This is a good time to store all the winter clothes for the year deutsche dokumentarfilme herunterladen. They take up SO MUCH room.)
  3. Make sure you write down instructions for media use (television, stereo, computers) and leave a wi-fi password.
  4. Put linens for the week on the fully-made bed in each room gifs herunterladen android. For an extra touch, roll them and place them in baskets.
  5. Make sure your storage closets and pantry area are in order.
  6. Make space in your fridge and freezer for your renters spotify desktop alben herunterladen. A great way to do this is by removing things you don’t want them to use: liquor, food stuff, medicine, etc.
  7. Leave instructions for finding hidden items powerpoint free pc. In our home, the trash can and microwave are in cabinets. They will need to know where these things are. Also, direct them to extra toilet paper, paper towels, napkins.
  8. Another nice touch is to leave out a boxed bar of soap and any small toiletries (shampoo, conditioner, lotion) in each bathroom.
  9. Do you receive the newspaper? Have a goldfish? Is your trash day during their stay? Leave any notes about these tasks that your renter will need to know.
  10. Ask a neighbor, friend or family member to watch your home/get your mail if you are heading out of town.

Settle Down | The 1975

I love this band. I love the singer’s voice. I see a lot of comparisons to Fall Out Boy for some reason. I guess because the songs are catchy and he has a great tone, but I don’t find them similar picasa for free windows.
