Catch Up TIme!

It's definitely been awhile since the last time I wrote a blog post! In the last one I didn't even write about my trip to Connecticut :/ Boy am I behind!
Over the 4th I took a trip to go visit some of my family out in Rockville. Enjoyed spending a couple services out there, catching up with old friends, heading to the ocean and of course just relaxing :) Here's a few photos from there:

She's cute there need not be an explanation :)

This man is a great role model!

Story behind this. Jeff was trying to say I came to Michigan t
o see him, so we made him take a picture with us :)

Don't get to see my cousins very often so, we make the
best of the time we have together!

Modeling her swim suit :P

She loves her cousins :)

Family speaks a mile a minute,
But when it matters the most
They're the ones you know
Are going to tell you the truth!

My "favorite" cousin David :) If David and I don't have
a picture together, then the trip didn't happen. 

Doing what she does best....being cute and eating :)

After Conneticut things slowed down and got back to the normal schedule of school. Now I get to brag about God's beautiful little girl he entrusted to me. She just keeps growing! Just when I think she has slowed down she seems to have hit yet another growth spurt! She continues to get cuter and cuter as if it's even possible :) We have officially hit the stage of her saying no. She's constantly telling her dollies "no" or "no-no" and yes she's mimicking her mommy telling her no. The other day she comes walking through the living room telling her baby "no nummy." I can't wait until she uses words for everything and it stops being a guessing game as to what she wants 90% of the time. It's so hard to think that she's to the age where she is becoming more and more independant. I just wish she'd slow down :(

                                                             "Help Me Find It"

I don’t know where to go from here
It all used to seem so clear
I’m finding I can’t do this on my own

I don’t know where to go from here
As long as I know that You are near
I’m done fighting
I’m finally letting go

I will trust in You
You’ve never failed before
I will trust in You

[Chorus:]
If there’s a road I should walk
Help me find it
If I need to be still
Give me peace for the moment
Whatever Your will
Whatever Your will
Can you help me find it
Can you help me find it

I’m giving You fear and You give faith
I giving you doubt
You give me grace
For every step I’ve never been alone

Even when it hurts, You’ll have Your way
Even in the valley I will say
With every breath
You’ve never let me go

I will wait for You
You’ve never failed before
I will wait for You

[Chorus]

I lift my empty hands (come fill me up again)
Have Your way my King (I give my all to You)
I lift my eyes again (Was blind but now I see)
‘Cause You are all I need

I just can't seem to get enough of this song. It's as if it's describing me time after time of trying to find where I'm to go to next. A song of submission and faith that God will show you where he wants you, and give you peace and contentment in whatever he gives you or where ever he takes you. 

Have a fantastic rest of the week :) Until next time, may God continue to richly bless your life with justice as needed, mercy always, and grace even during the undeserving times!
