A Saturday after noon

(This is a picture of our living room)

My husband and I spent Saturday walking around down town to get lunch at Relish, then watched Bride Wars and sat around until we went to a Natalie Cole concert at the Fox. It was so pleasant.

Amaryllis




For Christmas my mother gave my husband and I two potted Amaryllis bulbs. They finally bloomed on Valentines Day. Cute huh? They have grown a little crooked because you're supposed to put them next to a well lit window. Our only well lit window is our back sliding glass door and that's stretch. It's funny to watch a plant change shape to reach light.
The next bulb should be catching up soon. I think it will be a different color.

snow day!

Two of my highs school girls sledding down the super steep hill!

Most of my small group plus the awesome Brittany and George.

The frontside youth group went to play in the snow on Friday. It was awesome. There was this amazing hill that had rocks and trees at the bottom of it. We had to station some guys down at the bottom to keep kids from running into the rocks and trees.

new york flowers



.
This is an old picture from a crazy trip I took with my best friend to New York. I thought it was fitting because the flowers look like hearts.

Elyse


This is my awesome friend Elyse aka Elle(that's her stage name).
On Saturday night Megan(also in the picture) and I met up with her at Starbucks for a few hours. It was great! I forget how much I cherish her friendship. I mean I'm always glad that she's my friend, but I forget about all the great conversations we have.
She's the free as bird friend that just loves life and does Yoga. I love her!
Crazy thing about her: She creates yoga classes for kids. Her latest class was about poses that took you from nation to nation learning about the animals of those nations. To get across oceans you would use a boat pose. So cute!
She's also going to Thailand to make her own movie or as I would say make my own adventure. At first when she told us that she was going to Thailand and Vietnam alone, Megan and I were like what? Those countries aren't that safe. She then explained that her male cousin lives in Thailand and she's going to travel with him and his girlfriend. Now her movie sounded fun. I can't wait to her all her stories when she gets back.
