Uh. May. Zene!

Amazing.

No other word.

I feel so privileged to have been able to attend the entertainment experience that was Justin and JayZ - The Legends of Summer Tour. 

The energy at the Rose Bowl was unlike anything I had ever experienced.

Happy (early) Birthday my love! I wouldn't have wanted to experience this with anyone else!

I ain't straight outta Compton...

... I'm straight out the trailer.

Seeing as how I lived in your run-of-the-mill, movie scene of a trailer park, I especially love to sing that particular line of Cowboy as loud as I can. :)

Kid Rock was the perfect way to kick off our concert weekend.  He never disappoints!

WINNER!!!

It's always a good feeling when you bet Win, Place and Show... and your horse WINS!!
Nothing like a free day at the races... including the money used to place said bet.

Grandma

Between being in a relationship, having two jobs, trying to maintain a schedule at the gym, and trying to have time for myself and sleep, I don't get to see this lady as much as I would like and should.  When I do see her, I cherish the moments.  I am honored to call this woman Grandma.

Beth Moore

10 years ago, Lydia gave me my very first Beth Moore study, Breaking Free.
Since then she has given me many more and I have purchased others.

Each of these studies, whether they have been completed or not, have taught me so much about Jesus, His love for us, the people He lived life with while on earth, how I can better serve and love Him, and how I can better love and serve myself.

If you are a lady who loves Jesus and you have never done a Beth Moore study - I suggest going to get one ASAP.  Trust me!

Breaking Free - 10 years later

I have been thinking about going through the Beth Moore study, Breaking Free, again now that it has been 10 years since I first went through it.  I decided to go through my book from 10 years ago to see what has/hasn't changed since then.  I came across this little gem and couldn't help but stop dead in my tracks and read it over and over and over again.

Independence Day 2013

Today was not at all what I had imagined when I was dreaming of the 4th in June.

Nate had to stay in Mexico for work.
Andrea and Amy didn't do the usual Coronado 4th of July Extravaganza.
Chao's were out of town so no fireworks at their place.

I was bummed.  REAL bummed.
I wanted to get to spend the 4th with Nate - enjoying Coronado, a BBQ, and some fireworks.

Thankfully, I still had friends welcome me to their celebration - and I must say, it was a BLAST.  The Murphy's know how to throw a 4th of July party!

Quality time with Bugg.
More food than you can imagine.
Blow up pools, complete with countless water guns for fun.
A house right on the parade route.
Lots of laughs.
It was wonderful.

All this to say, I am a blessed lady.
The 4th didn't look like I thought it would, but it was still so wonderful.
