I feel a little awkward on days like this. Everyone sees the pouring rain and gets sad and says its lame and I’m just over here LOVING waking up to the sound of pouring rain and dreary heavy clouds and gray skies. Bring it on spring showers. Love love love them. Thunderstorms are beautiful and as long as I have a cute umbrella I’m game for anything.

Life has been sweet and hard for the last week. I’m really embracing (or at least trying to) living out Ann Voskamp’s “1000 gifts.” I wanna live fully and completely every day. I want to submit myself to whatever life has for me that one day at a time. And to be honest, it hurts. But it is good. Not good as in easy, but good as in worth it. I’m struggling to count everything as capital g Grace instead of looking at life as a mix of the good and the bad. I don’t know if any of that rings a bell with you readers out there, but for me, its been a journey. One that will continue forever really :]

Other than that confusing mess, I had one of those weeks where I thought I’d have a TON of alone time, and instead had very little. But again, so so good. Spending time with people is refreshing and filling and I love these people that God has for me right now.

Feels time.

• My friend Brittany got a peek into David and I’s slight routine this weekend. We lock ourselves out…a lot. And what happens when we do this? David climbs in the window. Our teeny tiny kitchen window. How the HECK has no one called the cops on us?! That either really concerns me or makes me happy that we live in a safe neighborhood…I think.
• This part of my spring is my favorite. It’s warm enough to sit outside, but cold enough to still bundle up in a blanket while you’re out there. Snuggling is awesome.
• Two weeks until my wedding seasons officially starts up and I am getting ANXIOUS! Good anxious, like I can’t wait to see what this seasons holds, my couples are such awesome people, anxious.
• Puppy update: Neville figured out to bark yesterday. Really really loud. And just because. He also is still loving sliding under the chair in our living room and hiding there until we can figure out to (literally) drag him out.
• Since I’ve been big on book updates…you all should check out “This Star Won’t Go Out.” It’s a memoir of a lovely girl who loves nerdy things and is super compassionate and just happens to have had cancer.

First engagement shoot in quite awhile. Dreamy light and dreamy fiances.
