If you were a boat my darling a boat my darling, I'd be the wind at your back.

This Fantastic album has been on replay for about 2 days now. There are a few songs that I have just fallen in love with. One is called the boat song. I was reading reviews about the album just to see what people said about it and I love this:
"Boat Song" is another beautiful acoustic love song about how she and her husband complete each other, as she sings, "If you were a boat… I'd be the wind at your back."
And its true, its a fantastic love song. One of those songs that makes your heart pitter-patter when you hear it. 
But really JJ Heller is an amazing artist.  and If I am being honest I have been looking at pictures of her hair, because I am thinking of chopping mine off like hers. ( if I have enough guts to do it....)

Grace means your holding me too.

I am sitting at our dining room table with stacks of paper every where around me
(yes, its time to pick classes for next semester, and all that fun stuff)
and I just don't have much ambition to look anymore. So instead I am going to blog. its always fun.

Today I made a fire in our fire place. (it took me a few tries but I did it! ) now I am trying to sit as close to it as possible, or however far my laptop cord will let me go.

I have been eyeballing these adorable rings. And this.

I am wear this a fantastic necklace from Africa.(Thanks B. I love it. )

Cannot Believe how grown up these sweet girls are.
Hales, you look Phenomenal.

 2 years ago?

I am hoping for snow.
yes crossing my fingers that when I get out of bed and peek out my window that there will be snow on the ground. Had a little bit of over excitement with my roommates last night (or me freaking out and them laughing at me......) that CHRISTMAS is almost here.*and it ended with us playing a game that made us all look like we were drunk. pretty dang funny. Thanks Bekah for the funny games that you learn how to play when you go backpacking.

This past weekend my mom came up to visit me. It was a great time, we laughed. ALOT. especially Make it or break it. I almost peed my pants in Cosco. Pretty darn funny.

                                                off to make food. hope life is fantastic.


* I think its safe to say that I love Christmas. I love the Christmas music, the decorations, all of the stores that have Christmas sales, and last but not least Jesus. everything that comes with it. including egg-nog and a fire. Its the anticipation that leads up to it that i love.

Who will love me for me, not for what I have done, or what I will become.

ITS COLD OUT.

summer is gone.

You know what this means?

Christmas is close.

Eggnog lattes are almost here! (yay! yay! yay!)

Christmas music is going to start playing.

and SNOW IS GOING TO HAPPEN.

I can wear scarves, and gloves, and warm jackets.

sit out side,

 drink lots of hot tea, 

read books,

 and just admire the pretty snow. 

sit next to my space heater when things get a little too cold, then do it all again.

Today was the first day that I could wear a scarf. It was FANTASTIC. 

If you can't tell I LOVE THE WINTER. It is my favorite. 

I get GIDDY( definition: lightheartedly silly or joyfully elated )when I wake up and its over cast out, and its cold. I wanna do a little dance& Sometimes I do.

I really want an eggnog latte. super bad. or just eggnog. 

I feel like this song kinda says where I am in m life right now. http://www.jjheller.com/home.asp

Fall is in the air...

As Kaley(my roomate) and I were driving around the neighborhood looking for furniture
(yes we drive around neighborhoods looking for cast-out furniture. we are in college...come on. and really you can find some pretty sweet stuff.)  


We stumbled upon this telephone pole that was wrapped in beautiful leaves that just scream fall. its starting to get cold in the mornings. and I become giddy when I wake up and its chilly out, and overcast. oh my...my favorite.
