Northview Block Party

 Finally getting caught up on happenings on the ol blog! 

A week ago we had our Block Party at my churches new location! We finally are in our new building and it's beautiful! So we had a block party to celebrate! I invited Audra and Addie, and Addie's Nana just so happened to be in town visiting so I finally got to meet her! My friend and Piano Student Sarah met us there and we had a great time! I also ran into another student and FORGOT TO TAKE A PICTURE!! Who am I???! I will blame it on the heat!

 I'm not sure if #SelfieSunday is a thing, but I'm trying to make it one on my Instagram. After church Selfies in front of my window give the best light! I'm also really into wearing dresses (Sundresses mostly) to church this summer. It is HOT outside!


 By Far Addie's FAVORITE part of this shindig was the Puppy she met. Moses. Yes, the Dog's name was Moses. And he was ADORABLE!
 I couldn't seem to get a great picture of her loving on him, but suffice it to say she.was.a.fan.
 Addie and her Mama. And her Nana in the background! Let me just tell you, they had some amazing Chocolate Chunk Cookies. I am still thinking about those cookies. They were just that good! And under the tent was sooo much cooler than out in the hot sun!
 By this point, Addie Jane was kind of done.
 She hid it well. HA!!
 We were struggling with the pictures that afternoon. I will again blame it on the heat!
 Me and Sarah! You can't tell, but Sarah and I both got our faces painted! We took some super awkward pictures under the tent that I will spare you from seeing. #YoureWelcome
 Sarah got a Melting Ice cream cone, with a cherry on top! And I got a pink, white and blue butterfly! Upon seeing myself in the mirror on the drive home I got "If I were a Butterfly" stuck in my head and have been singing it ever since. And if you don't know what I'm talking about, click HERE.

 After I got home I attempted to get a better pic of the butterfly...
 Which was a fail, but doesn't my hair look nice? I curled it that morning! I'm trying to figure out hairstyles for church that don't involve me washing it that morning and then spending 9,890,780,678 hours blowdrying it. Naturally Curly hair-NOT wash and go.

January Recap

  Tap, Tap, Tap. Is this thing on? No, your eyes aren't deceiving you, I'm back blogging after almost a year of not posting anything. I did a month long Prayer and Fasting with my church and abstained from Social Media (more about that to come) and during that time I realized I really missed blogging! So here I am! Clearly I'm rusty at this because I managed to upload my pictures in the opposite order, and I'm too lazy to go through and move each and every one of them, so we are going to look back at the month of January from the end to the start! Let's go! The Last day of January was a busy one. Well for me at least, after spending most of 2022 on my parents couch, inbetween surgeries, doing anything is busy for me. I had a piano tuning for Old faithful, my new to me baby grand, so I hung out in my bedroom while my tuner was there, and worked on my laptop. Before that I had my 1 year Brow touch up with Marissa at Lafayette Microblading. It had actually been over a

This is My Love Story

In the predawn hours of New Years Day 2004 I was faced with a choice. After spending New Year's Eve at a local bar with a friend, I came home and through the events that transpired, I saw clearly a vision of my future. What would happen to me if I continued on the path I had been taking. I had a choice to make and within a split second I knew what my answer was going to be. I grew up in a Christian home. I was saved at an early age. When I was 13/14 on my Birthday Sunday, Pastor Martin preached a sermon about those of us who had been saved at an early age and knowing if your salvation was real or not. I spent the rest of the day and my party tormented because I could not remember what was in my heart when I was younger. That night I gave my life to Christ and knew without a shadow of a doubt that I was his, and going to Heaven. In the years that followed I continued to be very active in church. I played the Piano and was in charge of Sunday night offertory, I was t

Frugal Friday- (Some) Tips and Tricks on how I get the most bang for my buck

(Shoutout to Ollies for the perfect Picture for this blog post) Remember when it was January and I said I was going to blog more this year? Well, it's now December, and I haven't blogged since January so clearly that goal went out the window.  BUT! I am here blogging today to share something I'm passionate about! And that is SAVING MONEY! And spending the least amount of money on things. Listen, the lower the price of something is, the more I like it.  I was waxing poetic about this subject to a friend on Marco Polo this week and decided that I felt the need to share it with the world. So, world, (or the three people who read my blog) You're Welcome. Sidenote: These are just some of the ways I stretch my dollars and get money back from purchases. Some of these have referral codes that if you join from them I get some sort of a reward, and some don't have codes, or I'm just not cool enough to know where to find them. Use the code, don't use the code, but plea
