Family is fun. We played badminton baseball (a made up game combining the two sports)  and the regular game badminton. Family is supportive. We had a girls day on Saturday at the restaurant "Mad Hatter". We went around the table and encouraged each other. We laughed and admired the unique setting of the restaurant. Then they came over and saw my new place. Family is close. Sunday, we had a barbecue. That night we tried to teach my 3 year old cousin how to play kickball. Then we played badminton in the rain. Monday we had another barbecue and sat outside for this one. All my sisters were able to make it this night so we got a picture together. Family is familiar. Saturday afternoon Abbey and I went thrifting and then hung out with our cousin Augie, as seen in the picture below. Overall it was a great weekend with lots of family time making memories as we played games and chatted. Thankful that God gave me such a great family and love the fact that we a...

faith over fear

Complete a half marathon for World Vision (X) I can check this goal off my bucket list.  Today I ran in the MN half marathon with Kassie and Peter. I never thought I would complete/run in a half marathon. I always thought running over 30 minutes was boring.

I was more determined than ever to run it.  Flash forward to today, I started claiming God's promises as I ran, such as " The joy of the Lord is my strength, In Christ I can do all things who strengthens me, and I look up to the hills, where does my help come from? My help comes fr...

Sweet little Jesus boy

As everyone knows Christmas is coming up and i am one of the people who the day after thanksgiving pulled out the Christmas music because I love Christmas. And at times during the Christmas season I would become greedy and think about what presents and wonder what other people got me but those were the times when I had to step back and remember Jesus is the reason for the season. Without him we wouldn't be able to live because like Romans 6:23 says " For the wages of sin is death but the gift of God is eternal life through Jesus Christ our Lord. And so today I just want to share one of my new favorite christmas songs. Its called Sweet Little Jesus boy by Rebecca St. James. This song helped me see that I need to be thankful that I know Jesus as my Lord .
