Movies that Move



Our 4th of July was a little non-conventional since non-Independence day patrons were setting off the non-American fireworks without any fire code or regulations or possibly instructions written in their native tongue. You can't really tell from the video, but the flaming cow had fire spewing out of all sides of it (including the rear) and then spinning wheels of fire came flying at us (I don't think this part was planned). Notice Matthew's evil laugh in the background before we begin to run ourselves. I don't think I've ever laughed and cried so hard at the same time. Best 4th EVER!


We got to see my precious nephew when we got back from Ecuador. He is probably the cutest thing I've ever seen. I finally bribed him to say mine and Matthew's names. We are Aunt Khaki and Uncle Myth.... I kind of feel like super heros. I hope it sticks!




Easton's signature dance was incredible. My sister and brother-in-law truly know how to raise their kid right! :)   I hope he becomes a dancer like his Aunt Khaki. He already has Intro to Hip Hop checked off.

He's just growing up before my eyes..... well not before mine since he's living in a different state, but he's growin up beautifully all the same!

Confessions

I have had so many people thank me for my honesty on this blog lately. I haven't really thought about my level of truthfulness until those remarks of gratitude were given. I think I naturally wear my heart on my sleeve, and thanks to my upbringing, I often hear the term TMI, which just means I'm obviously not scared to express myself. However, I also believe that when you are going through something difficult, it's much easier to be raw and real in front of others, even complete strangers. Often times, it is these "real" moments that bridge the gap between hearts and allow us to live truth. I must confess, this marathon is really all over the place. It's like I hit mile 7, and I can't believe I'm only at mile 7! This past weekend, I felt covered in prayer, peace, and love. Matthew and I enjoyed a much needed date night, our little Levi enjoyed a quiet and restful weekend, and our big boy had a blast at our neighborhood Easter Egg Hunt.  I really ju...

Joy in Pain

There is pain in this world. It comes in different forms. Physical pain, emotional pain, frustrating pain, confused pain, displaced pain, short-lived pain, numbing pain, excruciating pain, sincere pain, unexpected pain. Yet, through it all, there is joy. How? Where? Why is there joy in a world filled with such pain? Is is true joy? Is it fabricated or medicated joy? Is it temporary joy or will it fade with the next whisper of pain? No. I have felt a joy that far outweighs my pain. It's a joy that doesn't make sense mixing with a pain that culminates in reality. It's a joy that couldn't be concocted by even the most elaborate of artists. As I've experienced some of the most intense physical pain during some of the most intense emotional pain, I have noticed and experienced some of the purest forms of joy and peace that cannot be watered down by logic. We lost our second child this week. At just seven weeks old, our precious baby gets to escape a world o...
