Marrying into

So, I never realized that I wasn't just marrying into a family, marrying into traditions, or marrying into a new last name, but I actually get to marry into some cool stuff!!!

As most of you can tell from my blog, my camera isn't exactly quality (either are the pictures it takes). Nope, the ole' Olympus circa 1922 is considered an antique these days. I was thinking about getting a new one (when I realized I had no money), when I realized my new hubby has a pretty sweet flash-of-a guy. I mean, I get to say that's OUR camera! How awesome is that!?!
I also worry that good ole' MacBook here isn't gonna live as long as me, but guess what-- new hubby has a nicer, newer, metallic MacBook Pro! Now, since I've been engaged for five months, no one can accuse me of being superficial. I am more excited about living life with my best friend more than anything, but these perks certainly don't hurt his cause. :)
Hmm..... I guess that means I'm also marrying into the lovely "rubber-band-man" pillow. This is Matthew's favorite pillow that has a strange scent of rubber bands and even springs back a bit at first contact.

TWO MONTHS AND COUNTING!!!!

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...

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...
