Jesus is Alive!

today is easter. it didn't really feel like easter until we got to church and the sermon was all about the meaning of what Jesus' death and resurrection means. how we, his elect, are freed from sin and  no longer have to return to it. it was a really good service. and after we did our entrance interview with the session/elders and in 2 weeks, we will officially be presbyterians! huzzah! it was amazing how happy i felt after we got through the interview and everything. i felt like i was truly joining my family of believers. it was awesome. praise God.

i'm on a shai linne kick... he is so good. true reformed theology rap music! its awesome!

in this land of do or die
where innocent bystanders 
lose their lives
you do what you got to do
to survive.
what's the answer? Christ crucified!
where brutal guys abuse their wives
cats who seem to have it all
committing suicide
check your heart, what you trustin' in
you decide
what's the answer? Christ crucified!
— "Christ Crucified" - Shai Linne

check him out... he's legit.

so last night bud and i had a big talk about future endeavors. we have options opening up soon because bud is going to be done with his ba in a couple months. how exciting is that?? anyway - there is a lot on our minds. what do i want to do. how much do we want to commit to here in america? how long do we really want to stay here? its a lot to take in. and before i go spouting off all the things we're thinking of doing and possibilities, i want to keep thinking about it and truly pray and seek the Lord's guidance on this. not just by myself, but with my husband and truly seek God's guidance and trust that He will show us where He wants us and what He wants us to do. so if you read this and you're a believer, please pray that we will listen to God's voice and trust in Him, and be receptive to His voice and leading.

in a few days bud and i are heading out to NYC for our 4 year anniversary! i'm so ecstatic! haha. i've never been to nyc and there is so much we are hoping to do! hopefully it all works out flawlessly and we have a really nice trip. i think we're gonna visit bobby flay's restaurant! and we are going to try to get in to see daniel radcliffe's broadway play. i've heard so many good reviews. its sold out, but there are sometimes last minute tickets (i'm sure the seating won't be great but its a broadway show and it has daniel radcliff in it! i'm all about it). and then we'll do time square, empire state building, i HAVE to take a picture inside the plaza hotel where home alone 2 was filmed, and i'm sure bud and i are going to stuff ourselves with all sorts of nyc style pizza and its going to be awesome. this week though, i have to get some new shoes. hopefully the shoes that i want will be around and i can get them. i'm gonna check tomorrow. :)

anyway - today i went over my parents house and had easter lunch with my parents and brother dan and his family. it was lovely, although i missed my beloved. he went home and has been doing homework since he got home! he has a lot to do and he's really enjoying this class, but its proving to be a lot more work and more difficult than past classes. thats why he likes it. its challenging him and its interesting. i'm glad he's enjoying it. :) lets see... what else... i watched a lot of the cosby show today. i truly love bill cosby and if i could, i'd give him a huge hug and kiss and thank him for the comedy, wisdom, and true talent he shares with the world. he is a genius!

well... i'm going to bed. i'm super exhausted. been really tired lately... not quite sure why. it could possibly be all my allergies are not letting me sleep very well lately. i hate it. :( OH and we have the invasion of stinkbugs already! we really need to find a way to get rid of them or at the very LEAST lessen the amount. i literally killed, vacuumed up or flushed at least 10 today. ugh... just ugh. they are nasty vile disgusting creatures that serve NO purpose but to freak you out with their loud buzzing and drunken like flying and their little armored bodies. yuck... how gross and disgusting. 

anyway - i will leave you with a random hard drive picture, once again. goodnight to you all. looooove!

crunk factory... only for me and nick!

oh how i miss that shirt... and my hair!!!! it was super long and like the best color i ever had. the red was super vibrant and the blonde was perfect... ugh. amazing.
