Engaged! 2/12/14

February 12, 2014 is a day that I will never forget. I said yes to an amazing and life changing question that my best friend asked me. This post is going to be short and sweet and I will write a more detailed post soon about how it all happened. We are really enjoying this! It has not even been a week and we already have a wedding date picked out, ceremony and reception sites booked, as well as a DJ and photographer :) Perks of being a teacher....I am SUPER organized :)

25 Years Young

Yesterday was my 25th birthday. Back in high school 25 seemed so old...now, not so much. I am very content with where I am at in my life so far. 2014 is looking to be a great year so far...and I know it will be filled with many more blessings. God is so faithful!
This year I hope to slow down and take time to appreciate and enjoy each and every day. I want to enjoy and remember the little things. I want to be still and spend more quiet time with God. I want to be the best friend, teacher, girlfriend, daughter, sister, aunt, coworker, etc. that I can be! I want to do everything with more confidence, standing on the firm foundation of God's love and favor for me. I want to allow His Holy Spirit and his unchanging Word to develop my character further and to strengthen my heart. 
Yesterday was a great birthday. I feel so blessed and loved by so many of my friends and family members thinking of me and sending me birthday wishes. I even got a cute, kind surprise at work...Tim had flowers and a very sweet message delivered to me! I met him for dinner and we had a blast. Tonight I will celebrate with my family and this weekend I am getting together with a bunch of friends which I am looking forward to! 

Such a nice text from my mom :)
