Happy Belated Easter

I know this is so late, but I couldn't pass up a chance to give some praise to our sweet Jesus who laid down His life for us on the cross, scorned and shamed, then rose again all to set ME free. It is undeniably incomprehensible yet divinely amazing. It is finished. HE IS ALIVE. He loved us enough that he couldn't stand the thought of living in eternity without us. Why? I don't know and don't get it. But, I know that I love Him so very much. Not because of what He has done or can do, but because of who He is. "I AM." Not that I claim it all the time, but I am pretty sure no one loves me like he does. Despite of who I am, he loves me so unconditionally. I am so in love. It may sound so cheesy. But it is so true! Worthy is the Lamb!

I had a wonderful Easter. After a wonderful service at church we had a fabulous lunch at the one and only Snow's. They are our family away from family. Truly, every holiday that we aren't with our family in Colorado, we spend with them. And, when we are with our family in Colorado for holiday's, we miss them. Every minute spent with them is not a minute wasted. We have a blast with them and laugh our ever livin' heads off!

On another note, I just finished my spring break. A little travelin' girl I was. After returning from Louisiana, I spent one day at home then headed to Huntsville. I decided it would be nice to see my girls there and go to TRUTH. So that I did. I called up Raven and her friend too to see if they wanted to tag along. They did and I was so excited! We all trekked it up their in the tornado weather. We even had a plan for if a tornado were to come down. All was well, though. And as much as it rained and poured, HARD, no tornado's were spotted. I was so very grateful. Because as calm as I seemed, I could have peed in my pants. I was so nervous. I hate when the weather gets like that and I am driving. Huntsville was great. I went to TRUTH where I learned that Afshin was engaged! HOLLA!! My heart couldn't be happier. And of course, gave many hugs to those precious folks I don't see too often. It was sweet.

Wednesday we headed back to Houston and that night I watched August Rush for like the 100th time with the youth group. Sigh. I love that movie. I love the music. I just flat love it. Soon and very soon, I will be a proud owner. I just have to be patient until I have the funds to buy it. Until then, I will rent and watch when necessary!

Thursday I hopped back in my car and drove to sweet College Station to see the precious Lambert's. It's been too long! We had a calm evening and I just enjoyed being with Claire and her cute hubby Russell. A fun time is always had while there!

Friday after sleeping in a bit, Claire and I went to Body Attack. And Body Attack it was. I am still reaping the benefits today. Every inch of my body is sore. Why did I agree to that again? Oh yes, because every girl knows that swimsuit season is coming up and we just all need us a little body attack. Except NOT! Kidding. I actually think I would enjoy the hour long brutality if I could actually go a time or two a week, but that's not happening, because 1) I don't live there, and 2) I don't have a membership ANYWHERE right now. How sad is that. I have become very familiar with the sidewalk streets near my house!

After returning home after our bodies had been attacked, we ate back all the 900 calories lost (serious) and finished watching Ratatouille! So cute. I then, once again, packed the car and headed back to Houston.

Saturday I accomplished some, and even laid out for about 45 minutes. That's always so very nice and peaceful! That night we grilled out and I rented Enchanted. Y'all, SO cute. I loved it! Although I had no doubt I would, I am easily entertained! Especially if it ends with "And they lived happily ever after!" I'm waiting for my happily ever after! ;)

Here are a few pictures from my fabulous week! Now it's the trek to the end of the semester. Can you believe I graduate in 6 weeks?!!! Only 5 more weeks left of student teaching. I can't believe it. Somebody slap me. I think I'm in shock! ;)

Our neighbors came over to dye some eggs. Precious!

My loves!

After Body Attack.

PF Changs! And look at those teeny desserts! They were only $2!! :)

Sweet Huntsville girls! (In the Woodlands!)

Well folks, it is now way past my bedtime! Goodnight!
