Live, Laugh, Love


        So the big news as of right now is Justin and I just bought a house! It is a 1 bedroom 1 bath, with another building to the side that will be turned into a Guest/Entertainment/Workout/Hunting Room. It sits on a 1 acre yard complete with a row of blueberry bushes! It faces West, so it will be perfect for sitting on the porch swing (that is not there yet, but you can be sure as heck it will be in no time!) with a glass of  Tea watching the sunset! We are very excited! I can't wait to start moving in and putting all of our stuff in it and making it home. God is so good for bringing us to this adorable house! 

       I am also super excited about getting a dog. We just have to move in already! Speaking of dogs, I found this the other day and it made me chuckle.

Main thought of the day:
Never take a moment for granite....live every day to it's fullest and don't be so reserved and careful about every little thing. Make memories and LIVE! Of course, don't be stupid, but really, we have one life to live. Live for the One worthy of living for (Jesus Christ) and have fun! And also, never take anyone for granite, you never know how much longer you  have with them.
