"To live would be an awfully big adventure" J.M. Barrie

I have been reminiscing a lot the past few days. Not in an 'I'm sad' way, but in a 'look how far we have come' way. When I think upon the changes I have undergone since Joe and I began dating it is humbling and exciting. Of course I was still a bit of a child when it all started... and now (do I dare say it) I am an adult. ? Maybe... almost. This picture is in front of the Peter Pan statue in London (hence the quote). It is perhaps one of my most favorite spots on earth. I loved the disney movie Peter Pan as a child, and it was a dream come true to finally see this statue. (I first saw with my mom 3 years prior to this pic). The story of Peter Pan is really quite right. We as christians should never grow out of our child-like faith in Christ. While it is not logical, or explainable it is true. Praise the Lord, our God is mighty to save. It is going to be even more fantastical to stand in His presence, than my wildest child hood fantasies.

This weekend I made my new trek home down I-10. It wasn't so bad. Sealy to home was the worst part. Friday my parents had the day off for "ice", so my dad enjoyed watching the extended version of The Return of the King. A very us activity. I got to shop with my mom, aunt, and Oksana, and hang with the UB and Phil. It was great. Saturday my mom(s) and I got to enjoy being ladies who brunch. It was delightful. One of my favorite weekends to date.

My mom comes into town today for the rest of the week, and my most favorite comes home on friday for the weekend! I'm counting the hours.
